Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger (PLZF) gene on 11q23 and RARalpha gene on 17q21. METHODS: Eight PLZF/RARalpha expression plasmids with deletions of different PLZF motifs were constructed by using PCR based-method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: By transient co-transfection, it was confirmed that PLZF/RARalpha had a dominant negative effect against the wild-type RARalpha, the POZ domain of PLZF/RARalpha was responsible for the dominant negative effect and the PLZF/RARalpha may play certain role through a spatial interaction with POZ.
