Gene characterization and promoter analysis of the human 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (FLAP).
The human gene for the recently identified 5-lipoxy-genase-activating protein (FLAP) has been cloned. The gene was isolated from two different genomic libraries and is contained within four overlapping bacteriophage clones. The gene spans greater than 31 kilobases and consists of five small exons and four large introns. Southern blot analysis of human genomic DNA suggests the presence of a sing...
متن کاملthe study of aaag repeat polymorphism in promoter of errg gene and its association with the risk of breast cancer in isfahan region
چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولAnalysis of the 5-lipoxygenase promoter and characterization of a vitamin D receptor binding site.
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) and transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) potently induce 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) in myeloid cells. We analyzed vitamin D receptor (VDR) binding to putative vitamin D response elements within the 5-LO promoter and analyzed its function by reporter gene analysis. Binding of VDR and retinoid X receptor to the promoter region was shown in DNase I foot...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of 5-lipoxygenase promoter repeat variants.
Variants of a hexanucleotide repeat polymorphism in the promoter of the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) gene have been associated with cardiovascular disease traits in humans, which may be due, at least in part, to differential expression of the at-risk alleles. To more fully characterize these variants, we carried out gene expression and DNA methylation studies in primary leukocytes from healthy individ...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Human SHT,, Receptor Gene Promoter
The regulation of 5-HT,, receptor (5HT,,R) expression has been implicated in a variety of pathological processes and has been shown to be extremely complicated and controversial. In order to understand the mechanisms of regulation of this receptor, it is important to characterize its promoter. In this report, the 5’ end of the human 5-HT,,R gene was cloned and characterized. Anchored PCR mapped...
