3' UTR binding sites

"Wilms’ tumor 1 (WT1) is essential for the development and homeostasis of multiple mesodermal tissues. Despite evidence for post-transcriptional roles, no endogenous WT1 target RNAs exist. Using RNA immunoprecipitation and UV cross-linking, we show that WT1 binds preferentially to 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs) of developmental targets."[1]

Recurrent "kmers occurring in 3′ UTRs were identified in the single-read FLASH data. The polyadenylation signal AATAAA had the highest Z-score, and three similar sequences were also found in the top 10 kmers. However, on correlation with down-regulation, the TGTAAAT motif was found by MEME (Bailey and Elkan 1994) at 294 sites (E-value 2.7 × 10−562), which is different from the motif identified by RIP-seq [...]."[1]

5' UTR binding sites

"We identified high-confidence transcription factor binding sites specific for AP-1, proximal to our putative TSSs within the 5′ UTR, consistent with published reports of its role in Gja1 expression (data not shown; Echetebu et al., 1999, Geimonen et al., 1998, Geimonen et al., 1996, Hernandez et al., 2006, Tacheau et al., 2008)."[2]

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.

Samplings

Copying a responsive elements consensus sequence AAAAAAAA and putting the sequence in "⌘F" finds none between ZNF497 and A1BG or none between ZSCAN22 and A1BG as can be found by the computer programs.

For the Basic programs testing consensus sequence AAAAAAAA (starting with SuccessablesAAA.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 AAAAAAAA, 0.
  2. positive strand, negative direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  3. positive strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  4. negative strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  5. complement, negative strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  6. complement, positive strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  7. complement, positive strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  8. complement, negative strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  9. inverse complement, negative strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  10. inverse complement, positive strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  11. inverse complement, positive strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  12. inverse complement, negative strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  13. inverse negative strand, negative direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  14. inverse positive strand, negative direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  15. inverse positive strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  16. inverse negative strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
