Epithelial cells of many mucosal organs have adapted to coexist with microbes and microbial products. In general, most studies suggest that epithelial cells benefit from interactions with commensal microorganisms present at the lumenal surface. However, potentially injurious molecules found in this microenvironment also have the capacity to elicit local inflammatory responses and even systemic ...
The human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) long terminal repeat (LTR) initiates transcription efficiently but produces only short transcripts in the absence of the trans-activator protein, Tat. To determine whether a cellular enhancer could provide the signals required to recruit an elongation-competent polymerase to the HIV-1 LTR, the B cell-specific immunoglobulin heavy chain gene enhanc...
The pancreatic elastase I gene (ELA1) is selectively transcribed to high levels in pancreatic acinar cells. Pancreatic specificity is imparted by a 100-base pair enhancer that activates transcription in beta-cells of the islets of Langerhans as well as in acinar cells. Adjacent to the enhancer is a silencer that renders transcription specific to acinar cells by selectively suppressing the inher...
Protein-coding mutations in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) have been extensively characterized, frequently involving inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor. Roles for noncoding cis-regulatory aberrations in ccRCC tumorigenesis, however, remain unclear. Analyzing 10 primary tumor/normal pairs and 9 cell lines across 79 chromatin profiles, we observed pervasive enha...
Mu DNA transposition from a negatively supercoiled DNA substrate requires interaction of an enhancer element with the left (attL) and right (attR) ends of Mu. The orientation of the L and R ends with respect to each other (inverted) and with respect to the enhancer is normally inviolate. We show that when the enhancer is provided in trans as a linear fragment, the head to head orientation of th...
The immunoglobulin intragenic mu enhancer region acts as a locus control region that mediates transcriptional activation over large distances in germ line transformation assays. In transgenic mice, but not in transfected tissue culture cells, the activation of a variable region (V(H)) promoter by the mu enhancer is dependent on flanking nuclear matrix attachment regions (MARs). Here, we examine...
Although many features of active transcriptional enhancers have been defined by genomic assays, we lack a clear understanding of the order of events leading to enhancer formation and activation as well as the dynamics of coregulator interactions within the enhancer complex. Here, we used selective loss- or gain-of-function mutants of estrogen receptor α (ERα) to define two distinct phases of li...
Eukaryotic gene expression is regulated by enhancer-promoter interactions but the molecular mechanisms that govern specificity have remained elusive. Genome-wide studies utilizing STARR-seq identified two enhancer classes in Drosophila that interact with different core promoters: housekeeping enhancers (hkCP) and developmental enhancers (dCP). We hypothesized that the two enhancer classes are o...
the major objective in endodontic therapy is to disinfect the entire root canal system. this requires that the pulpal content be eliminated as sources of infection. this goal may be accomplished by mechanical instrumentation and chemical irrigation, in conjunction with medication of the root canal between treatment sessions. microorganisms and their by-products are considered to be the major ca...
Transcriptional enhancers are a major class of functional element embedded in the vast non-coding portion of the human genome. Acting over large genomic distances, enhancers play critical roles in the tissue and cell type-specific regulation of genes, and there is mounting evidence that they contribute to the aetiology of many human diseases. Methods for genome-wide mapping of enhancer regions ...
