About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0929
Species: human
Position : chr6:161119825-161121825
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Hypoplasminogenemia
Pubmed ID:  23872150
Enhancer experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay,ChIP,EMSA,PCR
Enhancer experiment description: An AP3-like (activator protein 3) enhancer element, located 2.4 kb upstream of PLG-TSS, is involved in PLG transcriptional regulationIn summary we demonstrated that estrogen regulates plasminogen promoter activity. The 5-flanking region of the PLG gene con_x0002_tains several cis-acting elements that are responsive to estrogen.An enhancer located at -11.5 kb confers a dramatic estrogen re_x0002_sponse in reporter assays.

About Target gene

Target gene : PLG(PLG)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: Luciferase Reporter Assay,PCR
Target gene experiment description: In our study we could show that a construct comprising the entire upstream region, containing the AP3 re_x0002_sponse element (2.4 kb-PLG) was able to further elevate basal luciferase activity 1.7-fold above that of PLG minimal promoters.The observed increase corresponds well to previously published results [20] and the 2.4 kb-PLG construct represents the most active contiguous promoter fragment analysed in this study. Surprisingly, with E2 stimulation this effect decreased by 54% down to the activity level of the PLG core promoter,although no ERE could be identified within this region.

An AP3-like (activator protein 3) enhancer element, located 2.4 kb upstream of PLG-TSS, is involved in PLG transcriptional regulation [20]. In our study we could show that a construct comprising the entire upstream region, containing the AP3 response element (2.4 kb-PLG) was able to further elevate basal luciferase activity 1.7-fold above that of PLG minimal promoters.
