Journal ArticleDOI
Phorbol ester-inducible genes contain a common cis element recognized by a TPA-modulated trans-acting factor.

TL;DR: Results strongly suggest that AP-1 is at the receiving end of a complex pathway responsible for transmitting the effects of phorbol ester tumor promoters from the plasma membrane to the transcriptional machinery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcription factor AP-2 mediates induction by two different signal-transduction pathways: protein kinase C and cAMP.
TL;DR: The 50 kd activator protein 2 (AP-2) as discussed by the authors is another enhancer-binding protein interacting with the human metallothionein IIA (hMT-IIA) gene control region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple cis- and trans-acting elements mediate the transcriptional response to phorbol esters.

TL;DR: It is reported here that the SV40 enhancer contains at least four different TPA responsive elements whose activity is dependent on cell-type, and the induction response is likely to involve at least two distinct post-translational steps which modulate the activity of the proteins that recognize these elements.
