<p>ERF-1 is shown to be a transcriptional regulator of the expression of the estrogen receptor, where elevated ERF-1 is related to elevated expression of the estrogen receptor. By monitoring the level of ERF-1, one can relate phenotypic characteristics of carcinomas expressing ERF-1 as prognostic of the response of the tumor to various therapies. In addition, ERF-1 may be used for screening therapeutic drugs which may act as antagonists to initiation of estrogen receptor transcription.</p> |
