【 摘 要 】

References(40)Cited-By(6)The transcription of hsc70, a cognate member of the hsp70 gene family, is suppressed in the terminally differentiated human histiocytic lymphoma cell line, U937, and appears to be regulated in the absence of heat shock. We have examined the 5' upstream regulatory region of 450 bp which contains a putative regulatory sequence of 18 bp in addition to known cis-elements such as HSEs, CCAAT boxes, Sp1 binding sites and AP2 binding sites. The 18 bp cis-element formed larger complexes with nuclear localized transfactors when extracts were prepared from differentiated rather than from proliferating cells. These larger complexes were also detected in nuclear extracts of serum-deprived cells, suggesting that such complexes may be related to the suppression of hsc70 gene transcription in Go arrested cells.
