Transcriptional control of the mouse prealbumin (transthyretin) gene: both promoter sequences and a distinct enhancer are cell specific. 总被引:36,自引:16,他引:20 下载免费PDF全文
The mouse genomic clone for the prealbumin (transthyretin) gene was cloned, and its upstream regulatory regions were analyzed. The 200 nucleotides 5' to the cap site when placed within a recombinant plasmid were sufficient to direct transient expression in HepG2 (human hepatoma) cells, but this DNA region did not support expression in HeLa cells. The sequence of the 200-nucleotide region is highly conserved between mouse and human DNA and can be considered a cell-specific promoter. Deletions of this promoter region identified a crucial element for cell-specific expression between 151 and 110 nucleotides 5' to the RNA start site. A region situated at about 1.6 to 2.15 kilobases upstream of the RNA start site was found to stimulate expression 10-fold in HepG2 cells but not in HeLa cells. This far upstream element was invertible and increased expression from the beta-globin promoter in HepG2 cells. Unlike the simian virus 40 enhancer, the prealbumin enhancer would not stimulate beta-globin synthesis in HeLa cells, and even the simian virus 40 enhancer did not stimulate the prealbumin promoter in HeLa cells. Thus, we identified in the prealbumin gene two DNA elements that respond in a cell-specific manner: a proximal promoter including a crucial sequence between -108 and -151 nucleotides and a distant enhancer element located between 1.6 and 2.15 kilobases upstream. 相似文献

A new enhancer element, ENII, identified in the X gene of hepatitis B virus. 总被引:9,自引:8,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
A new enhancer element of hepatitis B virus HBV, ENII, located in the X gene coding region and upstream of the C promoter, has been identified. As determined by deletion analysis, the sequence around nucleotides 1627 to 1732 was suggested to be essential for ENII activity. ENII was cell type specific. It showed high activity in HepG2 cells but not detectable activity in CV-1 cells. A protein-binding site was identified by footprinting in nucleotides 1648 to 1671. The minimum sequence and function of ENII are under investigation. 相似文献
