Résumé :
The apo(a) [apolipoprotein(a)] gene is responsible for variations in plasma lipoprotein(a), high levels of which are a risk factor for atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. The apo(a) promoter stimulates the expression of reporter genes in HepG2 cells, but not in HeLa cells. In the present study, we demonstrate that the 1.4 kb apo(a) promoter comprises two composite regulatory regions: a distal negative regulatory module (positions −1432 to −716) and a proximal tissue-specific module (−716 to −616). The distal negative regulatory module contains two strong negative regulatory regions [pol

Abstract Genes, such as IFNG, which are expressed in multiple cell lineages of the immune system, may employ a common set of regulatory elements to direct transcription in multiple cell types or individual regulatory elements to direct expression in individual cell lineages.

Specifically, a one 1-kb element 30 kb upstream of IFNG activates transcription in T cells and NKT cells but not NK cells, macrophages and dendritic cells. This distal regul

The 3D conformation of the chromatin creates complex networks of noncoding regulatory regions (distal elements) and promoters impacting gene regulation. Despite the importance of the role of noncoding regions in complex diseases, little is known about their interplay within regulatory hubs and implication in multigenic diseases such as schizophrenia. Here we show that cis-regulatory hubs (CRHs) in neurons highlight functional interactions between distal elements and promoters, providing a model to explain epigenetic mechanisms involved in complex diseases.

Abstract The transcription factor PU.1 (also known as Spi-1) plays a critical role in the development of the myeloid lineages, and myeloid cells derived from PU.1−/− animals are blocked at the earliest stage of myeloid differentiation.

Résumé :
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) ABCA3 gene encodes a lipid transporter critical for surfactant function at birth. To identify transcription factors that regulate ABCA3 expression in the lung, we identified by bioinformatic and functional analyses two positive regulatory regions, located between bp −2591 and −1102 and bp −1102 and +11, relative to the exon 1 of the Abca3 gene promoter. The distal cassette contains consensus sequences predicting binding to lung transcription factors including FOXA2, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-α (C/EBPα), GATA-6, thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1 or Nkx2.1

Résumé :
The totipotent stem cells of the pregastrulation mouse embryo which give rise to all embryonic somatic tissues and germ cells express Oct-4. The expression is downregulated during gastrulation and is thereafter only maintained in the germline lineage. Oct-4/lacZ transgenes were used to determine how this pattern of expression was achieved, and resulted in the identification of two separate regulatory elements. The distal element drives Oct-4 expression in preimplantation embryos, in migratory and postmigratory primordial germ cells but is inactive in cells of the epiblast. In cell lines this e

Résumé :
Androgen signaling via the androgen receptor (AR) transcription factor is crucial to normal prostate homeostasis and prostate tumorigenesis. Current models of AR function are predominantly based on studies of prostate-specific antigen regulation in androgen-responsive cell lines. To expand on these in vitro paradigms, we used the mouse prostate to elucidate the mechanisms through which AR regulates another direct target, FKBP5, in vivo. FKBP5 encodes an immunophilin that has been previously implicated in glucocorticoid and progestin signaling pathways and that likely influences prostate physio

Abstract Ankyrin forms the bridge between the spectrin/actin network of the erythrocyte membrane skeleton and the red cell membrane by binding to both β-spectrin and band 3. The erythrocyte ankyrin promoter (Ank-1E) is active only in erythroid cells, while two other Ank-1 promoters located 20 kb downstream and 40 kb upstream of Ank-1E are active in the cerebellum and muscle cells respectively. We have been studying the mechanism by which the Ank-1E promoter becomes active in erythroid cells by studying the cis acting regulatory elements and the chromatin structure of the Ank-1 promoter region.

Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus) is the major cause of bacterial pneumonia in the US and worldwide. Studies have shown that the differing chemical make-up between serotypes of its most important virulence factor, the capsule, can dictate disease severity.
