ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the Ob gene transcriptional promoter. The subject promoters generally comprise a C/EBP binding site and a novel untranslated Ob gene exon. Ob gene promoters are used in diagnosis and pharmaceutical development. In particular, transfected adipocytes comprising Ob gene promoters operably linked to a reporter are used in high-throughput pharmaceutical screens.
