“…The promoters contained the following sequences: ADH6, À 342 to + 57 (Yasunami et al, 1991;Zhi et al, 2000); hAAT, À 347 to + 56 (Shen et al, 1989;Hafenrichter et al, 1994;Bowling et al, 1996;Miao et al, 2000); CYP, À 370 to + 63 (Molowa et al, 1992); and FIX, À 219 to + 21 (Boccia et al, 1996). The core promoters were linked to the following enhancer sequences in the pGL3-basic luciferase vector by standard ligation techniques: a 319-bp apoE enhancer containing the hepatic control region (HCR-1) (Simonet et al, 1993;Dang et al, 1995;Allan et al, 1997); a 190-bp ABP enhancer region spanning nucleotides À 2824 to À 2634 (Rouet et al, 1992); a quadruplet of the site 5 enhancer element of the FIX gene spanning nucleotides À 219 to À 190 (Hoag et al, 1999). The simian virus 40 (SV40) promoter/enhancer luciferase vector pGL3 was obtained from Promega.…”
