Expression of dense-core vesicles and of their exocytosis are governed by the repressive transcription factor NRSF/REST.

abstract：:Members of the steroid receptor superfamily, like other transcription factors, can function as transcriptional inducers as well as repressors of transcription. The mechanisms by which repression is achieved seem to be specific for the factors and [table: see text] regulatory sequences involved. Many and perhaps all of...
