Sp1 is a sequence-specific transcription factor that recognizes GGGGCGGGGC and closely related sequences, which are often referred to as GC boxes. Sp1 was initially identified as a HeLa cell-derived factor that selectively activates in vitro transcription from the SV40 promoter and binds to the multiple GC boxes in the 21 bp repeated elements in SV40. The sequence specificity of DNA binding is conferred by Zn (II) fingers, whereas a different region of Sp1 appears to regulate the affinity of DNA binding. Sp1 belongs to a subgroup of transcription factors that are phosphorylated upon binding to promoter sequences.
