Abstract: | ![]() The Dexras1 gene responds to glucocorticoids with a rapid and profound induction. A glucocorticoid response element (GRE) was identified in the 3'-flanking region (2.3 kb downstream of poly(A) signal) of the human Dexras1 gene. This element conferred rapid glucocorticoid responsiveness when inserted into a homologous promoter-driven luciferase reporter. A point mutation within the 15-bp GRE abolished this glucocorticoid responsiveness. |
