Abstract

See full text

The inventors discovered for the first time the nucleotide sequence of the human DR5 gene promoter, the nucleotide sequence of the human Siah-1 gene promoter and what appear to be the core promoter regions thereof. The present invention further provides a screening method for substances which regulate promoter activity, comprising a step of bringing a test substance into contact with cells holding a vector which comprises this DNA together with a reporter gene ligated expressibly to this DNA, and a step of detecting changes in the expressed amount of the reporter gene due to contact with the test substance. This screening method is a method of very efficiently selecting anti-cancer drugs and the like.
