CLONING AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE CAP GENE PROMOTER

摘要

The present invention relates to novel polynucleotides that contain peroxisome proliferator response elements (PPREs). The invention also describes vectors and host cells comprising the novel polynucleotides. The invention further describes methods for using the novel polynucleotides, gene therapy applications, diagnostics for syndromes involving insulin resistance, development of proprietary screening strategies for inhibitors of ligands or proteins that bind to, associate with, or interact with the CAP promoter.
