About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0924
Species: human
Position : chr1:1083900-1085900
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low+High throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: --
Pubmed ID:  24086551
Enhancer experiment: qRT-PCR,Luciferase Reporter Assay,ChIP-seq,ChIP-qPCR
Enhancer experiment description: We have analyzed the miR-200b~200a~429 locus for epigenetic modifications in breast epithelial and mesenchymal cell lines using chromatin immunoprecipitation assays and DNA methylation analysis. We discovered a novel enhancer located approximately 5.1kb upstream of the miR-200b~200a~429 transcriptional start site. This region was associated with the active enhancer chromatin signature comprising H3K4me1, H3K27ac, RNA polymerase II and CpG dinucleotide hypomethylation.

About Target gene

Target gene : GIHCG(GIHCG)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: qRT-PCR,Luciferase Reporter Assay,ChIP-qPCR
Target gene experiment description: Luciferase reporter assays revealed the upstream enhancer stimulated the transcription of the miR-200b~200a~429 minimal promoter region approximately 27-fold in breast epithelial cells. Furthermore, we found that a region of the enhancer was transcribed, producing a short, GC-rich, mainly nuclear, non-polyadenylated RNA transcript designated miR-200b eRNA.

About Function

Enhancer function : The presence of a novel Enhancer contributes to miR-200b~200a~429 transcriptional regulation in epithelial cells.
Enhancer function experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer function
experiment description:
Luciferase reporter assays revealed the upstream enhancer stimulated the transcription of the miR-200b~200a~429 minimal promoter region approximately 27-fold in breast epithelial cells. Furthermore, we found that a region of the enhancer was transcribed, producing a short, GC-rich, mainly nuclear, non-polyadenylated RNA transcript designated miR-200b eRNA. Over-expression of miR-200b eRNA had little effect on miR-200b~200a~429 promoter activity and its production did not correlate with miR-200b~200a~429 gene expression.
