“…Domain 2 (Ϫ70 to Ϫ31) binds CBF, AP1, ETS, and NFAT transcription factors (10, 16 -18). This region responds to TNF-␣ and interleukin (IL)-1 stimulation of fibroblast (13,14) and endothelial (19) cells and T cell receptor activation (10, 16 -18) and is required for constitutive expression in certain acute myeloid leukemia cell lines (20). The CBF, AP1, and ETS/NFAT transcription factor-binding sites have been shown to be essential for T cell receptor signaling in conjunction with the domain 1 NF-kB site (10,16,18), but it is not known which of these sites in domain 2 are required for activation in fibroblasts and endothelial cells.…”
