Several hundred base pairs upstream of Drosophila hsp23 and 26 genes are required for their heat induction in transformed flies. 总被引:11,自引:2,他引:9 下载免费PDF全文
We have used the P-element-mediated transformation of Drosophila germ line to study the 5' DNA sequences involved in the thermal inducibility of the genes for heat shock proteins hsp23 and 26. The results are strikingly different from those previously obtained in heterologous systems. For hsp23, each successive shortening of the promoter region from 618 to 402, 321 and 263 bp clearly decreased the expression. A construct with only 149 bp was not inducible at all. For hsp26, all the regulatory elements appear to be clustered in the first 350 bp upstream from the cap site. Clones with 171 bp showed a 4- to 10-fold decrease in induction depending on the transformed line, and those with only 52 bp were not expressed. The results suggest that at least three Pelham consensus sequences are required for the full expression of these two genes. The direct involvement of one of these consensus sequences has been assessed: a 6-bp deletion within the proximal element of the hsp26 gene strongly reduced its inducibility. Our results also indicate that X-linked hsp genes exhibit either partial dosage compensation or none at all. 相似文献

A consensus sequence polymer inhibits in vivo expression of heat shock genes. 总被引:13,自引:7,他引:6 下载免费PDF全文
Promoter function for hsp70 gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster was studied with an in vivo competition assay. A polymer of 40 tandem copies of the pair of regulatory elements of the hsp70 gene was constructed and cloned into a plasmid vector. Various marked genes were cotransfected with the polymer plasmid into Schneider line 2 cells, and their expression was determined by enzyme activity measurements. The polymer dramatically inhibited expression of cotransfected hsp70, hsp26, and hsp83 genes, but not cotransfected copia and histone genes. Our results indicate that in vivo, a trans-acting, positive regulatory factor, which can be titrated by heat shock consensus sequences, is required for activation of heat shock genes and is specific for these genes; the coordinate induction of different heat shock genes appears to be mediated by similar, but not identical, interactions of the trans-acting induction factor and the cis-acting heat shock consensus sequences; and the uninduced or basal level expression of the transfected hsp70 gene is also due to interaction of the consensus sequence with a positively acting factor. 相似文献

Transcriptional regulation of an hsp70 heat shock gene in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 总被引:36,自引:22,他引:14 下载免费PDF全文
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains three heat-inducible hsp70 genes. We have characterized the promoter region of the hsp70 heat shock gene YG100, that also displays a basal level of expression. Deletion of the distal region of the promoter resulted in an 80% drop in the basal level of expression without affecting expression after heat shock. Progressive-deletion analysis suggested that sequences necessary for heat-inducible expression are more proximal, within 233 base pairs of the initiation region. The promoter region of YG100 contains multiple elements related to the Drosophila melanogaster heat shock element (HSE; CnnGAAnnT TCnnG). Deletion of a proximal promoter region containing one element, HSE2, eliminated most of the heat-inducible expression of YG100. The upstream activation site (UAS) of the yeast cytochrome c gene (CYC1) can be substituted by a single copy of HSE2 plus its adjoining nucleotides (UASHS). This hybrid promoter displayed a substantial level of expression before heat shock, and the level of expression was elevated eightfold by heat shock. YG100 sequences that flank UASHS inhibited basal expression of UASHS in the hybrid promoter but not its heat-inducible expression. This inhibition of basal UASHS activity suggests that negative regulation is involved in modulating expression of this yeast heat shock gene. 相似文献
