A nucleotide sequence (3.2 kb) of a DNA region located approximately between introns 4 and 7 of the rat tryptophan oxygenase gene was determined. Using filter binding studies and monoclonal antibodies against the glucocorticoid receptor a high affinity binding of this region to the glucocorticoid receptor was demonstrated.
