Functional analysis and identification of cis-regulatory elements of human chromosome 21 gene promoters
Given the inherent limitations of in silico studies relying solely on DNA sequence analysis, the functional characterization of mammalian promoters and associated cis-regulatory elements requires experimental support, which demands cloning and analysis of putative promoter regions. Focusing on human chromosome 21, we cloned 182 gene promoters of 2500 bp in length and conducted reporter gene ass...
متن کاملPLACE: a database of plant cis-acting regulatory DNA elements
PLACE (http://www.dna.affrc.go.jp/htdocs/PLACE/) is a database of motifs found in plant cis -acting regulatory DNA elements, all from previously published reports. It covers vascular plants only. In addition to the motifs originally reported, their variations in other genes or in other plant species reported later are also compiled. The PLACE database also contains a brief description of each m...
متن کاملPlant cis-acting regulatory DNA elements (PLACE) database: 1999
PLACE (http://www.dna.affrc.go.jp/htdocs/PLACE/) is a database of nucleotide sequence motifs found in plant cis-acting regulatory DNA elements. Motifs were extracted from previously published reports on genes in vascular plants. In addition to the motifs originally reported, their variations in other genes or in other plant species in later reports are also compiled. Documents for each motif in...
متن کاملIdentification of benzo[a]pyrene-inducible cis-acting elements within c-Ha-ras transcriptional regulatory sequences.
Previous studies in this laboratory have demonstrated that transcriptional deregulation of c-Ha-ras expression is associated with the induction and maintenance of proliferative vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotypes by benzo[a]pyrene (BaP). We examined previously undescribed cis-acting elements within the proximal 5' regulatory region of c-Ha-ras (-550 to +220) for their ability to influe...
متن کاملIdentification of cis-regulatory elements for MECP2 expression.
Rett syndrome (RTT) is an X-linked dominant disabling neurodevelopmental disorder caused by loss of function mutations in the MECP2 gene, located at Xq28, which encodes a multifunctional protein. MECP2 expression is regulated in a developmental stage and cell-type-specific manner. The need for tightly controlled MeCP2 levels in brain is strongly suggested by neurologically abnormal phenotypes o...
