## Abstract 2,3,7,8‐Tetrachlorodibenzo‐p‐dioxin (TCDD) was classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as a carcinogen in humans. It acts through an aryl hydrocarbon receptor‐mediated mechanism, inducing the transcription of numerous genes, including various cytochrome P450s (CYPs
We analyzed the function of a DNA domain located upstream of the cytochrome P4501A1 gene in wild-type (Hepa lclc7) mouse hepatoma cells and in high-activityvariant (HAV) cells that overtranscribe the gene in response to the inducer 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Transfection experiments
