Human genes

"TATA-containing genes are more often highly regulated, such as by biotic or stress stimuli."[1] Only "∼10% of these TATA-containing promoters have the canonical TATA box (TATAWAWR)."[1]

"SRF-regulated genes of the actin/cytoskeleton/contractile family tend to have a TATA box."[2]

Different "TATA box sequences have different abilities to convey the activating signals of certain enhancers and activators in mammalian cells [...] and in yeast [...]."[2]

"SRF is a well established master regulator of the specific family of genes encoding the actin cytoskeleton and contractile apparatus [...], and we found that ~40% of the core promoters for these genes contain a TATA box, which is a significant enrichment compared to the low overall frequency of TATA-containing promoters in human and mouse genomes (...)."[2] "Global frequencies of core promoter types for human [9010 orthologous mouse-human promoter pairs with 1848 TATA-containing or 7162 TATA-less][3] genes with experimentally validated transcription start sites [are known from 2006]."[2] "The TATA box [...] has a consensus sequence of TATAWAAR [...]."[2] W = A or T and R = A or G. We "estimate that ~17% of promoters contain a TATA box".[3]

Gene ID: 58

"The product encoded by this gene belongs to the actin family of proteins, which are highly conserved proteins that play a role in cell motility, structure and integrity. Alpha, beta and gamma actin isoforms have been identified, with alpha actins being a major constituent of the contractile apparatus, while beta and gamma actins are involved in the regulation of cell motility. This actin is an alpha actin that is found in skeletal muscle. Mutations in this gene cause a variety of myopathies, including nemaline myopathy, congenital myopathy with excess of thin myofilaments, congenital myopathy with cores, and congenital myopathy with fiber-type disproportion, diseases that lead to muscle fiber defects with manifestations such as hypotonia."[4] It has a TATA box (TATAAAA) from -28 to -22 nts from the TSS.[3]

Gene ID: 60

"This gene encodes one of six different actin proteins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure, integrity, and intercellular signaling. The encoded protein is a major constituent of the contractile apparatus and one of the two nonmuscle cytoskeletal actins that are ubiquitously expressed. Mutations in this gene cause Baraitser-Winter syndrome 1, which is characterized by intellectual disability with a distinctive facial appearance in human patients. Numerous pseudogenes of this gene have been identified throughout the human genome."[5]

Gene ID: 70

"Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility. Polymerization of globular actin (G-actin) leads to a structural filament (F-actin) in the form of a two-stranded helix. Each actin can bind to four others. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the actin family which is comprised of three main groups of actin isoforms, alpha, beta, and gamma. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus. Defects in this gene have been associated with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) and familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC)."[6]
