Regulation of c-Fos gene expression by NF-κB: a p65 homodimer binding site in mouse embryonic fibroblasts but not human HEK293 cells.

The immediate early gene c-Fos is reported to be regulated by Elk-1 and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB), but whether nuclear factor (NF)-κB is also required for controlling c-Fos expression is unclear. In this study, we determined how NF-κB's coordination with Elk/serum response fa...
