Fig. 1 Diagrammatic representation of exon 4 showing a transcriptional activation region (TAR) at aa 32-42, a phosphorylation site at aa 33 (small p) , an adenovirus E1b protein binding site, a DNA-specific binding domain at aa 90-279, and a structural domain at aa 61-94.12 The stars indicate the location of the 7 mutations. The capital P indicates 2 polymorphic sites. Gastroenterology 2000 118, 1039-1044DOI: (10.1016/S0016-5085(00)70356-8) Copyright © 2000 American Gastroenterological Association Terms and Conditions
