Abstract:
Previous studies have indicated that C/EBP alpha is involved in the regulation of factor IX and mutations of a C/EBP recognition element in the factor IX promoter result in haemophilia B. We now report that mice homozygous for the deletion of the c/ebp alpha gene are significantly deficient in factor IX transcription.
