Abstract
Regulation of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor promoter by cholesterol requires a well defined sterol regulatory site and an adjacent binding site for the universal transcription factor Sp1. These elements are located in repeats 2 and 3 of the wild type promoter, respectively. The experime …
