Progesterone receptor induces bcl-x expression through intragenic binding sites favoring RNA polymerase II elongation

Steroid receptors were classically described for regulating transcription by binding to target gene promoters. However, genome-wide studies reveal that steroid receptors-binding sites are mainly located at intragenic regions. To determine the role of these sites, we examined the effect of progestins...
