Figure 3From: SF-1 a key player in the development and differentiation of steroidogenic tissuesMIS promoter. Binding sites for the transcription factors required for proper MIS expression are shown. Their position in human MIS promoter is indicated (hMIS). WT1 and Dax-1 are able to respectively stimulate or repress MIS promoter activity by interacting with SF-1 bound to its proximal responsive element. Effect of the mutation of the proximal SFRE or SOX9 responsive element introduced by knock-in in mice on Müllerian ducts regression is indicated. Abreviations : Sox BS, SOX factors binding site; SFRE, SF-1 responsive element.Back to article page
