abstractText | Intraperitoneal injection of epidermal growth factor into mice results in the appearance of multiple tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in liver nuclei within minutes after administration. We have previously identified three of these proteins as Stat 1 alpha, Stat 1 beta (p91, p84), and Stat 3 (p89). In the present report we demonstrate that Stat 5 (p92), the recently described prolactin inducible transcription factor detected in mammary glands, is the major tyrosine-phosphorylated protein translocated to the nucleus in mouse liver in response to epidermal growth factor. Furthermore, gel-shift analysis and affinity purification revealed that Stat 5, Stat 1 alpha, and Stat 1 beta specifically bind to the prolactin inducible element upstream of the beta-casein promoter. |
