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."[2]

Recurrent "kmers occurring in 3′ UTRs were identified in the single-read FLASH data. The polyadenylation signal [ ATA box ] 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 [...]."[2]

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)."[3]

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.

TGTAAAT samplings

Copying a responsive elements consensus sequence TGTAAAT 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 TGTAAAT (starting with SuccessablesTGT.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 TGTAAAT, 1, TGTAAAT at 4535.
  2. positive strand, negative direction, looking for TGTAAAT, 0.
  3. positive strand, positive direction, looking for TGTAAAT, 0.
  4. negative strand, positive direction, looking for TGTAAAT, 0.
  5. complement, negative strand, negative direction, looking for ACATTTA, 0.
  6. complement, positive strand, negative direction, looking for ACATTTA, 1, ACATTTA at 4535.
  7. complement, positive strand, positive direction, looking for ACATTTA, 0.

Comparison:

The occurrences of a real TGT UTR is greater than the randoms. This suggests that the real TGT is likely active or activable.
