About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0754
Species: human
Position : chr2:234665349-234665739
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Hepatocellular carcinoma
Pubmed ID:  30397001
Enhancer experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay,qRT-PCR
Enhancer experiment description: These observations suggested that a specific enhancer region, such as neighboring transcriptional factors, is required for CAR/CCAR1 interaction.

About Target gene

Target gene : UGT1A1(BILIQTL1,GNT1,HUG-BR1,UDPGT,UDPGT1-1,UGT1,UGT1A)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: ChIP
Target gene experiment description: The phenobarbital-responsive Enhancer module of UGT1A1 (gtPBREM)-driven Luciferaseplasmid (gtPBREM-Luc.) containing a 290-bp distal Enhancer module (23570/23180) was constructed based on pGL3-promoter (Promega).

About TF

TF name : CCAR1(CCAR1)
TF experiment: ChIP
TF experiment description: CCAR1 regulates CAR-mediated mRNA expression (Figs. 4 and 5) and reporter activity (Figs. 2 and 3) of UGT1A1 but not CYP2B6.We speculated that CCAR1 is differentially recruited to CAR-responsive Enhancer regions. To investigate this hypothesis,we carried out ChIP experiments in HepTR/CAR cells.

About Function

Enhancer function : CCAR1 enhances transcriptional activity of CAR and acts as an Enhancer-dependent selective cofactor of CAR for UGT1A1 expression.
Enhancer function experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
