Monkey ER (Estradiol Receptor)

Identification of ImmediateEarly Gene Targets of the Raf-1 Serine/Threonine Protein Kinase Using an Estradiol-Dependent Fusion Protein, Raf-1:ER

, and hormone receptors into the nucleus (1 –4 ). Receptor-dependent activation of the Ras GTPase results in recruitment of Raf-1 to the plasma membrane whereupon Raf-1 kinase is activated by a mechanism that is not yet fully elucidated. Subsequently, Raf

The Common Marmoset Monkey as a Model for Implantation and Early Pregnancy Research

This chapter describes methods used to investigate implantation in the common marmoset monkey, Callithrix jacchus . A reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction-strategy with which to detect transcripts for steroid receptors and enzymes

Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay detects er recruitment to gene specific promoters in uterus

interested in examining estrogen-dependent transcriptional mechanism in respect of recruitment of estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα), a ligand-activated transcription factor, to uterine gene promoters in mice. Recent genearray studies, utilizing ERα knock-out vs
