| abstractText | We have identified and purified a DNA binding protein which specifically binds to a segment of the mouse alpha 2 (I) collagen promoter between -420 and -399 bp upstream of the start of transcription. Purification included heparin-agarose and sequence-specific DNA-affinity chromatography, followed by SDS-PAGE and renaturation of the DNA binding activity after elution from SDS-polyacrylamide gel. The DNA binding activity resides in two species of 42 kDa and 40 kDa, respectively. The levels of DNA binding activity of this factor, which has been tentatively designated as ColF1, are considerably higher in nuclear extracts of NIH-3T3 fibroblasts than in nuclear extracts from epidermal cells, lymphoid cells and transformed NIH-3T3 fibroblasts. |
