| T1 |
0-136 |
Sentence |
denotes |
A composite Ets/Pit-1 binding site in the prolactin gene can mediate transcriptional responses to multiple signal transduction pathways. |
| T2 |
137-279 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Binding sites for the tissue-specific transcription factor, Pit-1, are required for basal and hormonally induced prolactin gene transcription. |
| T3 |
280-462 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Although Pit-1 is phosphorylated in response to several signaling pathways, the mechanism by which Pit-1 contributes to hormonal induction of gene transcription has not been defined. |
| T4 |
463-586 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Recent reports suggest that phosphorylation of Pit-1 may not be required for hormonal regulation of the prolactin promoter. |
| T5 |
587-736 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Analysis of the contribution of individual Pit-1 binding sites has been complicated due to the fact that some of the elements appear to be redundant. |
| T6 |
737-993 |
Sentence |
denotes |
To better understand the role of Pit-1 sites in mediating hormonal regulation of the prolactin gene, we have performed enhancer tests using the three most proximal Pit-1 binding sites of the rat prolactin gene which are designated the 1P, 2P, and 3P sites. |
| T7 |
994-1181 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The results demonstrate that multimers of the 3P Pit-1 binding site are much more responsive to several hormonal and intracellular signaling pathways than multimers of the 1P or 2P sites. |
| T8 |
1182-1278 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The 3P DNA element was found to contain a consensus binding site for the Ets family of proteins. |
| T9 |
1279-1442 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Mutation of the Ets binding site greatly decreased the ability of epidermal growth factor, phorbol esters, Ras, or the Raf kinase to induce reporter gene activity. |
| T10 |
1443-1513 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Mutation of the Ets site had little effect on basal enhancer activity. |
| T11 |
1514-1640 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In contrast, mutation of the consensus Pit-1 binding site in the 3P element essentially abolished all basal enhancer activity. |
| T12 |
1641-1754 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Overexpression of Ets-1 in GH3 pituitary cells enhanced both basal and Ras induced activity from the 3P enhancer. |
| T13 |
1755-2028 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These data describe a composite element in the prolactin gene containing binding sites for two different factors and the studies suggest a mechanism by which Ets proteins and Pit-1 functionally cooperate to permit transcriptional regulation by different signaling pathways. |
