"DNA-binding by the GR-DBD has been well-characterized; it is highly sequence-specific, directly recognizing invariant guanine nucleotides of two AGAACA [TGTTCT] half sites called the glucocorticoid response element (GRE), and binds as a dimer in head-to-head orientation with mid-nanomolar affinity (4,12–18). [...] The consensus DNA glucocorticoid response element (GRE) is comprised of two half-sites (AGAACA) separated by a three base-pair spacer (13,15,60,61)."[1]

Interactions

Consensus sequences

Hypotheses

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

Samplings

Copying an apparent consensus sequence of AGAACA and putting it in "⌘F" finds one located between ZSCAN22 and A1BG and two between ZNF497 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. negative strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  3. positive strand, negative direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  4. positive strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  5. complement, negative strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  6. complement, negative strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  7. complement, positive strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  8. complement, positive strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  9. inverse complement, negative strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  10. inverse complement, negative strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  11. inverse complement, positive strand, negative direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  12. inverse complement, positive strand, positive direction, looking for TTTTTTTT, 0.
  13. inverse negative strand, negative direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  14. inverse negative strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  15. inverse positive strand, negative direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
  16. inverse positive strand, positive direction, looking for AAAAAAAA, 0.
