| Research Abstract |
To study molecular mechanisms underlying odorant receptor (OR) gene expression in mice, we have screened transcription factors which might be involved in OR gene regulation, and have made transgenic mice to identify promoter/enhancer regions. We found a few candidate factors which may regulate OR gene expression. In addition, we have constructed transgenes to identify regulatory regions OR genes, and have obtained several transgenic lines.
