"The TEA/ATTS transcription factor family consists of mammalian, avian, nematode, insect and fungal members that share a conserved TEA domain. The TEA domain (Bürglin, 1991) represents a DNA‐binding region that is composed of 66–76 conserved amino acids (aa) in the N‐terminal section of the proteins."[1]

Human genes

Gene expressions

Transcriptional enhancer factor TEF-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TEAD4 gene.[2][3][4]

This gene product is a member of the transcriptional enhancer factor (TEF) family of transcription factors, which contain the TEA/ATTS DNA-binding domain.[5] Members of the family in mammals are TEAD1, TEAD2, TEAD3, TEAD4. TEAD4 is preferentially expressed in the skeletal muscle, and binds to the M-CAT regulatory element found in promoters of muscle-specific genes to direct their gene expression. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding distinct isoforms, some of which are translated through the use of a non-AUG (UUG) initiation codon, have been described for this gene.[4] Gene ablation experiments in mice (i.e. knockout mice) showed that TEAD4 is essential for the formation of blastocysts during preimplantation embryo development.[6][7] Although it was originally hypothesized to be essential for specification of trophectoderm lineage, it was later shown that functional trophectoderm can be produced leading to formation of blastocysts under in vitro conditions that suppress oxidative stress.[8] Transcriptional coregulators, such as WWTR1 (TAZ) bind to members in this transcription factor family.

Consensus sequences

"The TEA consensus sequence (TCS) in a fungal TEA/ATTS transcription factor target promoter has been defined as 5′‐CATTCY‐3′ (Andrianopoulos and Timberlake, 1994)."[1]

Hypotheses

  1. A1BG has no regulatory elements in either promoter.
  2. A1BG is not transcribed by a regulatory element.
  3. No regulatory element participates in the transcription of A1BG.

TEA samplings

Copying a responsive elements consensus sequence CATTC(C/T) and putting the sequence in "⌘F" finds three between ZNF497 and A1BG or 2 between ZSCAN22 and A1BG as can be found by the computer programs.

For the Basic programs testing consensus sequence CATTC(C/T) (starting with SuccessablesTEA.bas) written to compare nucleotide sequences with the sequences on either the template strand (-), or coding strand (+), of the DNA, in the negative direction (-), or the positive direction (+), the programs are, are looking for, and found:

  1. negative strand, negative direction, looking for CATTC(C/T), 2, CATTCT at 3893, CATTCT at 2503.
  2. positive strand, negative direction, looking for CATTC(C/T), 0.
  3. positive strand, positive direction, looking for CATTC(C/T), 1, CATTCC at 2457.

Comparison:

The occurrences of real TEAs are greater than the randoms. This suggests that the real TEAs are likely active or activable.
