In vivo functional characterization of the aldolase B gene enhancer.
A 400-bp intronic enhancer fragment in conjunction with the proximal promoter of the aldolase B gene provided correct tissue-specific expression in transgenic mice together with hormonal regulation in the liver. We investigated in vivo and in cultured cells the contribution of the intronic regulatory sequences and their interaction with the promoter elements in controlling aldolase B gene expre...
متن کاملCharacterization of the human SLC30A8 promoter and intronic enhancer.
Genome-wide association studies have shown that a polymorphic variant in SLC30A8, which encodes zinc transporter-8, is associated with altered susceptibility to type 2 diabetes (T2D). This association is consistent with the observation that glucose-stimulated insulin secretion is decreased in islets isolated from Slc30a8 knockout mice. In this study, immunohistochemical staining was first used ...
متن کاملThe carboxyl-terminal structure of rabbit liver aldolase (aldolase B).
The amino acid residues in the carboxyl-terminal region of fructose diphosphate aldolase isolated from fresh rabbit liver are -(Gly,Phe,Leu,Ala,Thr2,Ser2)-Tyr. This differs from the carboxyl-terminal structure in aldolase isolated from tissue which had been frozen and thawed. Amino acid analyses, ultracentrifugation, and digestion with carboxypeptidase suggest that the difference is the result ...
متن کاملRegulation of the PMP22 gene through an intronic enhancer.
Successful myelination of the peripheral nervous system depends upon induction of major protein components of myelin, such as peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22). Myelin stability is also sensitive to levels of PMP22, as a 1.4 Mb duplication on human chromosome 17, resulting in three copies of PMP22, is the most common cause of the peripheral neuropathy Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. The transcr...
متن کاملElucidation of IgH intronic enhancer functions via germ-line deletion.
Studies of chimeric mice demonstrated that the core Ig heavy chain (IgH) intronic enhancer (iEmu) functions in V(D)J and class switch recombination at the IgH locus. To more fully evaluate the role of this element in these and other processes, we generated mice homozygous for germ-line mutations in which the core sequences of iEmu (cEmu) were either deleted (cEmu(Delta/Delta) mice) or replaced ...
