摘要: The interferon-beta promoter binding protein, IRF-2, is proteolytically processed during induction by double-stranded RNA to leave an N-terminal fragment that can still bind DNA. An corresponds the induction-specific product has a higher affinity for and more potent repressor of transcription than full-length precursor. kinetics production cleavage slower activation transcription. These results suggest IRF-2 functions generate postinduction expression.
