Combinatorial Roles of Protein Kinase A, Ets2 and CBP/p300 in the Transcriptional Control of Interferon-tau Expression in a Trophoblast Cell Line
(Molecular Endocrinology, 2008-02)
In ruminants, conceptus interferon-tau (IFNT) production is necessary for maintenance of pregnancy. We examined the role of protein kinase A (PKA) in regulating IFNT expression through the activation of Ets2 in JAr ...
