We previously noted that the initial receptor by which murine osteoclast precursors bind
matrix is the integrin α v β 5 and that granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-
CSF) decreases expression of this heterodimer by suppressing transcription of the β 5 gene.
We herein report cloning of the β 5 integrin gene promoter and identification of a GM-CSF-
responsive sequence. A 13-kilobase (kb) genomic fragment containing part of the β 5 gene
was isolated by screening a mouse genomic library with a probe derived from the most 5 …
