On the transcriptional regulation of neuronal nAChR genes

J Physiol Paris. 1998 Jun-Aug;92(3-4):245-8. doi: 10.1016/s0928-4257(98)80027-2.

Abstract

The promoters driving transcription of the neuronal nicotinic genes alpha 7 and beta 3 have been characterized in the chicken. Although their regulatory modalities are thoroughly different, they nevertheless lead to co-expression in the same neurons.
