- _5 value "TGFbeta stimulates the gene coding for human alpha2(I)-collagen (COL1A2) by inducing binding of an Sp1-containing complex to an upstream promoter element (TGFbeta responsive element or TbRE) that contains a CAGA box. Here we report that the CAGA box of the TbRE is the binding site of the Smad3/Smad4 complex, and that the binding of the complex is required for TGFbeta-induced COL1A2 up-regulation. Recombinant Smad3 and Smad4 bind in vitro to the CAGA box of COL1A2; TGFbeta treatment of cultured fibroblasts induces Smad3/Smad4 binding to the TbRE; transient overexpression of Smad3 and Smad4 in fibroblasts transactivates TbRE-driven transcription;" provenance.
