Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and biochemical characterization of the promoter-specific transcription factor, Sp1
TL;DR: Isolation and renaturation of proteins purified from sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels allowed the identification of two polypeptides as those responsible for recognizing and interacting specifically with the GC-box promoter elements characteristic of Sp1 binding sites.
Book ChapterDOI
Eukaryotic Transcriptional Specificity Conferred by DNA-Binding Proteins
TL;DR: The pattern of gene expression in mammalian cells requires thousands of genes to be turned on and off in a temporally and spatially regulated manner, and the identification of important cis-acting DNA sequences in the region surrounding transcription initiation sites is identified.
