Abstract
The level of expression of a transfected metallothionein (MT)-IGcat fusion gene in response to cadmium differed from that of the endogenous MT-IG gene. Atomic absorption analysis indicated that the total cellular content of cadmium and zinc increased upon calcium phosphate-mediated transfection. Thus, changes in the influx/efflux of metals may regulate the level of MT gene expression.Entities:
