Abstract:The nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) transcription factor plays a prominent role in inflammation and contributes to the development of atherosclerosis. Genome-wide DNA binding assays of the human NF-κB subunit RELA (p65) have revealed tens of thousands of NF-κB binding sites and hundreds of target genes. However, the function of individual RELA binding sites and the extent to which NF-κB occupancy and function is conserved across mammals are not well understood. To better … 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.
