Nucleic acid constructs for the cell cycle-regulated expression of genes and therapeutic methods utilizing such constructs

Nucleic acid constructs comprising an activator sequence, a promoter module, and a structural gene are disclosed. The promoter module comprises a a CHR region and a nucleic acid sequence that binds a protein of the E2F family. These constructs are used in gene therapy, such as the treatment of disor...

Zusammenfassung:Nucleic acid constructs comprising an activator sequence, a promoter module, and a structural gene are disclosed. The promoter module comprises a a CHR region and a nucleic acid sequence that binds a protein of the E2F family. These constructs are used in gene therapy, such as the treatment of disorders characterized by excess cell proliferation.
