Characterization of estrogen-responsive mouse lactoferrin promoter.
Mouse lactoferrin is expressed in a variety of tissues under different types of control. To understand how molecular mechanisms govern the mode of lactoferrin expression, we isolated and characterized the 5'-flanking region of the lactoferrin gene. Several clones containing lactoferrin gene fragments were isolated from a mouse (129/J) genomic library including clone lambda J14, which contains a...
متن کاملDevelopmental exposure to diethylstilbestrol elicits demethylation of estrogen-responsive lactoferrin gene in mouse uterus.
Alteration of DNA demethylation in five CpG sites (-547, -533, -475, -464, and -454) immediately upstream from the estrogen response element of lactoferrin promoter was determined in the uteri of immature (17-day-old) and mature (21- and 30-day-old) mice treated neonatally with DES. Only the CpG/-464 was found to be abnormally demethylated by diethylstilbestrol (DES) treatment in the mature ute...
متن کاملEstrogen-related receptor, hERR1, modulates estrogen receptor-mediated response of human lactoferrin gene promoter.
We have shown previously that estrogen-stimulated transcription from the human lactoferrin gene in RL95-2 endometrium carcinoma cells is mediated through an imperfect estrogen response element (ERE) at the 5 -flanking region of the gene. Upstream from the ERE, a DNA sequence (-418 to -378, FP1) was selectively protected from DNase I digestion by nuclear extracts from endometrial and mammary gla...
متن کاملcharacterization and functional assessment of mouse pparγ1 promoter
background: peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (pparγ), a member of nuclear receptor superfamily, comprises two isoforms in mouse. these two isoforms are encoded by different mrnas, which are arisen by alternative promoter usage. there are two promoter regions upstream of pparγ gene. a 3 kb fragment, containing several transcription factor binding sites, acts as pparγ1 promoter re...
متن کاملLactoferrin gene expression is estrogen responsive in human and rhesus monkey endometrium.
We have previously shown that the estrogen responsiveness of the human lactoferrin gene in a transient transfection system is mediated through an imperfect estrogen response element (ERE) and a steroidogenic factor 1 binding element (SFRE) 26 bp upstream from ERE. Reporter constructs containing SFRE and ERE respond to estrogen stimulation in a dose-dependent manner, whereas mutations at either ...
