Activation of gene transcription in metazoans is a multistep process that is triggered by factors that recognize transcriptional enhancer sites in DNA. These factors work with co-activators to direct transcriptional initiation by the RNA polymerase II apparatus. One class of co-activator, the TAF(II
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) BB is a mitogen that stimulates bone resorption and increases collagenase 3 transcription in osteoblasts, although the mechanisms involved are as yet unknown. We examined the effect of PDGF BB on collagenase 3 transcription in cultures of osteoblasts from fetal
