Upstream regulatory factor ( USF ) and sterol regulatory element binding protein ( SREBP ) play key roles in the transcriptional regulation of the fatty acid synthase (FAS) gene by feeding and insulin ... We conclude that the FAS promoter is activated during refeeding via the induced binding of SREBP to the -150 SRE and that USF binding to the -65 E-box is also required for SREBP binding and activation of the FAS promoter

These data suggest that the regulation of USF expression may play an important role in the regulation of FAS transcription
