Abstract:Background. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor (AHRR) inhibits the transcription activity of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) by competing for dimerization with the AHR nuclear translocator (ARNT) and subsequently binding to XRE. Interestingly, the AHRR has two AU-rich elements (AREs) in its 3’UTR which relates to the post-transcriptional regulation by ARE-binding proteins including Tristetraprolin (TTP), BRF1, HuR and so on. In previous study, we determined that TTP plays a critical role in the decayi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
