Rap1 regulatory factor gene transcriptions

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Henry A. Hoff

"Rap1 is another [General regulatory factor] GRF that organizes chromatin, binds promoters of genes that encode ribosomal and glycolytic proteins, and binds telomeres (Shore 1994; Ganapathi et al. 2011; Hughes and de Boer 2013). [...] DNA shape analysis revealed that Rap1 motifs possess an intrinsically wide minor groove spanning the central degenerate region of the motif that was wider at binding-competent sites [...]. A clear trend was observed between increased width of the minor groove in the central degenerate region of the motif and increased Rap1 binding in vitro."[1]

Consensus sequences

Consensus sequences: C(A/C/G)(A/C/G)(A/G)(C/G/T)C(A/C/T)(A/G/T)(C/G/T)(A/G/T)(A/C/G)(A/C)(A/C/T)(A/C/T).[1]

Reduced consensus sequence including more frequent nucleotides: (A/G)(A/C)ACCC(A/G)N(A/G)C(A/C)(C/T)(A/C).[1]

"When the core DNA sequence of the Rap1 motif [...] was held constant (ACCCRnRCA), less than half of the sites were detectably bound [...]."[1]

Rap1 samplings

Copying an apparent consensus sequence for Rap1 (CCCACCAACAAAA) and putting it in "⌘F" finds none located between ZSCAN22 or none between ZNF497 and A1BG as can be found by the computer programs.

For the Basic programs testing consensus sequence ACCC(A/G)N(A/G)CA (starting with SuccessablesRAP.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:

Discussion

When the Rap1 motif was held constant to ACCCRNRCA[1], no real results occurred. However, using the ten random datasets for testing ACCCRNRCA and its inverse complement yielded five consensus sequence results and four inverse complements. Two were in the UTR of A1BG from the negative direction. One was in the proximal promoter from the positive direction, and the remaining five were in the distal promoters.

The reduced consensus (A/G)(A/C)ACCC(A/G)N(A/G)C(A/C)(C/T)(A/C)[1] had one result GAACCCACACCTC in the positive direction at 1807, less than half way from ZNF497. Of ten random datasets only one had a result: GCACCCGGGCATC at 1454. Also, for the inverse complement, there was only one TATGCCTGGGTTT at 1380. In both the real sequences and random sequences, each was in the distal promoter closer to the zinc finger than A1BG. The occurrence of one random result per ten datasets suggests that such a result is rarely random. While the real occurrence is likely active as a regulatory response.

The full consensus sequence C(A/C/G)(A/C/G)(A/G)(C/G/T)C(A/C/T)(A/G/T)(C/G/T)(A/G/T)(A/C/G)(A/C)(A/C/T)(A/C/T)[1] gave four to six results in the UTR negative direction, one in the core promoter in the positive direction, two in the proximal promoter in the negative direction and one in the positive direction. In the distal promoter each direction had eight to nine results.

For the random data sets: UTR ranged from zero to four in the UTR, core promoter produced only zero to one, proximal promoter produced zero to one, and the distal promoter contained one to seven for either direction.

Comparing the two, the real UTR, proximal promoter, and distal promoter usually exceeded the random results. This suggests that some of the real results could just be due to random associations of nucleotides, but the rest are likely real.

Comparison:

The occurrences of real Rap1s are greater than the randoms. This suggests that the real Rap1s are likely active or activable.
