Figure 2

Basal level expression of rtMT-A cis-acting elements. Basal level luciferase activity in RTH-149 (A) and Hep G2 (B) cells transfected with the indicated rtMT-A promoter constructs. Luciferase activity is given as relative luminescence. All activities were normalized using either the dual luciferase system or β-galactosidase activity. Luciferase activities were analyzed 24 hours post transfection. Results are presented as mean ± SE (n = 4). All other activities were adjusted accordingly. Statistically significant differences from control levels are indicated by *(p < 0.05); ** (p < 0.01).
