The steroid and thyroid hormone receptor superfamily
TL;DR: A superfamily of regulatory proteins that include receptors for thyroid hormone and the vertebrate morphogen retinoic acid is identified, suggesting mechanisms underlying morphogenesis and homeostasis may be more ubiquitous than previously expected.

Gene regulation by steroid hormones.
TL;DR: The location, orientation, and structure of the hormone regulatory elements (HRE) in nine hormonally modulated genes is described and a model for the interaction is proposed in which a dimer of the receptor in head-to-head orientation binds to the inverted symmetry element of the HRE.

Transcriptional regulation in mammalian cells by sequence-specific DNA binding proteins
Pamela J. Mitchell,Robert Tjian +1 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes recent studies that define structural domains for DNA binding and transcriptional activation functions in sequence-specific transcription factors in mammalian DNA binding transcription factors.

Chromosomal subunits in active genes have an altered conformation
Harold Weintraub,Mark Groudine +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that active genes are probably associated with histones in a subunit conformation in which the associated DNA is particularly sensitive to digestion by deoxyribonuclease I.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monoclonal antibodies localize oestrogen receptor in the nuclei of target cells.
TL;DR: The development of an immunocytochemical procedure suitable for localizing oestrophilin directly in frozen tissue sections or cells from human and several non-human sources is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of a β-globin gene is enhanced by remote SV40 DNA sequences
TL;DR: The activation of genes by specific enhancer elements seems to be a widespread mechanism that may be used for the regulation of gene expression and defines a class of DNA elements with a mode of action that has not been heretofore described.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vivo sequence requirements of the SV40 early promoter region
TL;DR: To investigate the sequences necessary for proper initiation of transcription of SV40 early genes, several deletion mutants are constructed in the promoter region of the TATA box region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional control signals of a eukaryotic protein-coding gene
TL;DR: Transcriptional control signals of a model eukaryotic protein-coding gene have been identified by a new procedure of in vitro mutagenesis that allows small clusters of nucleotide residues to be substituted in a site-directed manner without causing the addition or deletion of other sequences.
