The hepatitis B virus enhancer 1 contains a retinoic acid responsive element (RARE). We have previously demonstrated that retinoid X receptor alpha (RXR alpha) transactivates enhancer 1 by binding to the RARE. The present study has revealed that a heterodimeric complex composed of RXR alpha and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) interacts with the hepatitis B virus RARE. Transient transfection studies, in conjunction with in vitro DNA binding data, support the hypothesis that the RXR alpha-PPAR heterodimer transactivates enhancer 1.
乙肝病毒增强子1含有一个视黄酸反应元件(RARE)。我们之前已经证明,视黄酸X受体α(RXRα)通过与RARE结合来反式激活增强子1。本研究揭示,由RXRα和过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体(PPAR)组成的异源二聚体复合物与乙肝病毒RARE相互作用。瞬时转染研究结合体外DNA结合数据,支持RXRα-PPAR异源二聚体反式激活增强子1这一假说。
