Figure 4From: Activity of the porcine gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor gene promoter is partially conferred by a distal gonadotrope specific element (GSE) within an upstream enhancing region, two proximal GSEs and a retinoid X receptor binding siteThe -1915/-1431 bp distal portion of the GnRHR gene is important for gonadotrope expression. A, Cells were transfected with -5118pGL3 or pGL3. Unique letters indicate values that are significantly different from one another (P < 0.05). B, Transfections of cells with vectors harboring deleted blocks of internal sequence within -5118pGL3 or pGL3. An asterisk indicates values that are greater than pGL3 (P < 0.05).Back to article page
