C-EBP box gene transcriptions
Introduction
Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Henry A. Hoff
“ATF4 regulates transcription of its target genes through the formation of homodimers or heterooligomers with the transcription factors Jun, AP-1 and C/EBP38,39 that bind to CARE (C/EBP-ATF) responsive elements having the consensus sequence XTTXCATCA (where X = G, A or T).39 In the region from -625 to -618 bp relative to the SESN2 translation start codon (from -228 to -221 bp relative to the transcription start site) we found a candidate sequence for the ATF4 binding site TTTTCATCA.”[1]
Consensus sequences
Consensus sequences
The consensus sequence for the CCAAT-enhancer-binding site (C/EBP) is TAGCATT (Yao).[2]
“TTAGGACAT [Misra] is the C/EBP box”.[3]
Hypotheses
Hypotheses
- A1BG has no A boxes in either promoter.
- A1BG is not transcribed by an ATA box.
- AGCE1 does not participate in the transcription of A1BG.
