Description
This promoter is up-regulated by the lowering of the temperature to 33 degree Celsius. It has been discovered that the transcription factors for this promoter are NF-kB and SP1, which are endogenous to HeLa cells. This promoter can be used in temperature-varying experiments.
Notes
Since the promoter was found in CHO cells first, we used BLAST site to find a similar genetic sequence in HeLa cells.
Source
The sequence has been BLASTed to HeLa cells because it was originally found in CHO cells.
