Origin: Mouse
Properties: promoter that responsible for transcription of MTNR1a
Usage and Biology
MPGK promoter(mpPGK) is the promoter of Pgk1 in mouse cell. Pgk-1 is the murine gene encoding phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), a key enzyme in glycolysis. This enzyme must be present in all cells, so the Pgk-1 promoter is expected to be a ubiquitously active one[1].
The cloned mpPGK is very active in driving transcription of reporter genes following transfection into mammalian cells[2]. The promoter is particularly active in pluripotent embryonal carcinoma and embryonic stem cells.
An initial studie on the Pgk-1 promoter indicated that its activity was contained within a region from −425 bp to +80 bp relative to the first transcription start site[2]. This promoter is GC rich and contains no TATA box[3]. The data from John P. Thomson et al. indicate that a primary function of non-methylated CGIs is to genetically influence the local chromatin modification state to initiate transcriptionby interaction with Cfp1 and perhaps other CpG-binding proteins[4]. The core promoter from −121 bp to +80 bp contains a number of putative Spl binding sites and had modest promoter activity. The 304 bp upstream of the core promoter had enhancer-like activity such that this region increased expression from the core promoter in an orientation- and position-independent fashion.
