title: Characterization of transcription factors and cis-acting elements that regulate human CTP: phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase (Pcyt2).
abstract: CTP: phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase (Pcyt2) promoter was isolated from human breast cancer MCF-7 cells and its activity delineated by luciferase reporter assays and gel-shift analysis. The Pcyt2 promoter is driven by a functional CAAT box (-90/-73) and by negative (-385/-255) and positive regulatory elements (-255/-153) in the upstream regions.
