The expression of the u.. fetoprotein(AFP) gene is developmentally regulated. Active
transcription of this gene depends on a proximal enhancer sequence located between
positions 0.203 bp and. 81 bp, upstream the initiation site. This enhancer contains several
putative binding sites for transcription factors. Bytransfection experiments, we showed that
the enhancer activity can be driven by interactions with two regulatory factors, namely C/EBP
and c-JUN.
