| 摘要 |
DNA segments have been discovered, and characterized by sequence, which are response elements operative to confer responsiveness to retinoic acid, or derivatives thereof, for the transcriptional activation of promoters in cells. By using transcriptional control regions comprising response elements of the present invention in combination with a functional promoter, it is now possible to provide recombinant DNA vectors containing a gene, the transcription (and, thereby, also expression) of which is under the control of a promoter, the transcriptional activity of which is responsive to (and increased by) retinoic acid or derivatives thereof. |
