Thyroid Hormone Resistance Syndrome
(The American Society for Clinical Investigation, 1991-06)Thyroid hormone (T3) resistance is inherited in most cases in an autosomal dominant manner. The disorder is characterized by elevated free thyroid hormone levels and partial resistance to thyroid hormone at the cellular ... -
A Purified Adenovirus 289-Amino-Acid ElA Protein Activates RNA Polymerase III Transcription In Vitro and Alters Transcription Factor TFIIIC
(American Society for Microbiology, 1991-10)We have previously demonstrated that a purified bacterially synthesized ElA 289-amino-acid protein is capable of stimulating transcription from the promoters of genes transcribed by RNA polymerase II in vitro (R. Spangler, ... -
Thyroid Hormone Receptor Mediates Transcriptional Activation and Repression of Different Promoters in vitro
(The Endocrine Society, 1992)The thyroid hormone receptor (TR) has the dual ability to activate or repress transcription of specific genes. A cell-free transcription system was used to study the effects of TR on transcription by positively (TREpMLP) ... -
