Transcription factor AP-4 is a ligand for immunoglobulin-κ promoter E-box elements
Immunoglobulin (Ig)-κ promoters from humans and mice share conserved sequences. The octamer element is common to all Ig promoters and pivotal for their function. However, other conserved sequence motifs, that differ between lg variable gene families, are required for normal promoter function. These conserved motifs do not stimulate transcription in the absence of an octamer. One example is an E-bo
