"DAF-16 binding element (DBE), GTAAACA or TGTTTAC, and DAF-16-associated element (DAE), TGATAAG or CTTATCA, enriched in DAF-16 regulated genes [2, 4, 13, 14]. The DBE was recognized by DAF-16, and the DAE by transcription factor PQM-1 [13]."[1] Note: GTAAACA is the inverse complement (ic) of TGTTTAC and TGATAAG is the ic of CTTATCA.

Human genes

Gene ID: 1604 is CD55 CD55 molecule (Cromer blood group) aka DAF on 1q32.2: "This gene encodes a glycoprotein involved in the regulation of the complement cascade. Binding of the encoded protein to complement proteins accelerates their decay, thereby disrupting the cascade and preventing damage to host cells. Antigens present on this protein constitute the Cromer blood group system (CROM). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The predominant transcript variant encodes a membrane-bound protein, but alternatively spliced transcripts may produce soluble proteins."[2]

This protein recognizes C4b and C3b fragments that condense with cell-surface hydroxyl or amino groups when nascent C4b and C3b are locally generated during C4 and C3 activation.[3] Interaction of DAF with cell-associated C4b and C3b polypeptides interferes with their ability to catalyze the conversion of C2 and factor B to enzymatically active C2a and Bb and thereby prevents the formation of C4b2a and C3bBb, the amplification convertases of the complement cascade.[3]

Gene ID: 2308 is FOXO1 forkhead box O1 on 13q14.11: "This gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors which are characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. The specific function of this gene has not yet been determined; however, it may play a role in myogenic growth and differentiation. Translocation of this gene with PAX3 has been associated with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma."[4]

Consensus sequences

5'-GTAAACA-3'.[1]

"Most paralogous FOX proteins bind to the canonical DNA response element 5′-RYAAAYA-3′ (R = A or G, Y = C or T)11–13."[5]

"Forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1), a master transcriptional factor for gluconeogenesis in the liver, directly regulates TXNIP expression through the binding of the promoter region of TXNIP which contains a conserved consensus sequence, ′GTAAACAA′, of the FOXO binding site [100,101]."[6]

Hypotheses

  1. A1BG has no DBEs in either promoter.
  2. A1BG is not transcribed by a DBE.
  3. DBE does not participate in the transcription of A1BG.

DBE samplings

Copying an apparent consensus sequence of (A/G)(C/T)AAA(C/T)A and putting it in "⌘F" finds none located between ZSCAN22 and A1BG and none between ZNF497 and A1BG as can be found by the computer programs.

Copying the consensus element GTAAACA into ⌘F found no elements in either promoter of A1BG.

For the Basic programs testing consensus sequence (A/G)(C/T)AAA(C/T)A (starting with SuccessablesDBE.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: GTAAATA at 4536.
  2. Negative strand, positive direction: ACAAACA at 4256.
  3. Positive strand, negative direction: ATAAATA at 4074, ATAAACA at 3337, ACAAATA at 3333, ATAAACA at 2876, ACAAACA at 2512, ACAAACA at 2487, GCAAACA at 2483, GCAAACA at 1539, ACAAACA at 1391.
  4. Positive strand, positive direction: ACAAATA at 2346.
  5. inverse complement, negative strand, negative direction: 0.
  6. inverse complement, negative strand, positive direction: TGTTTGC at 3340.
  7. inverse complement, positive strand, negative direction: 0.
  8. inverse complement, positive strand, positive direction: TATTTAC at 3429.

Comparison:

The occurrences of real DBEs are outside the randoms. This suggests that the real DBEs are likely active or activable.
