About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0935
Species: human
Position : chr12:48369059-48369213
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: --
Pubmed ID:  23631855
Enhancer experiment: PCR,ChIP,Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer experiment description: In addition, CTS increased the association between Smad2/3 and the COL2A1 enhancer on chromatin in SW1353 cells (Fig. 3C). In stretched cells, DNA fragment that contained the COL2A1 enhancer was coimmunoprecipitated with Smad2/3, probably via complex for_x0002_mation among Smad2/3-SOX9-the SOX9-binding site, and was amplified by PCR using specific primers for the COL2A1 enhancer.

About Target gene

Target gene : COL2A1(ANFH,AOM,COL11A3,SEDC,STL1)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: PCR,ChIP,Luciferase Reporter Assay
Target gene experiment description: Chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed that CTS increased Smad2/3 interaction with the CCN2 promoter and the COL2A1 enhancer. Our results suggest that CTS epigenetically stimulates CCN2 transcription via TGF-?1 release associated with Smad2/3 activation and enhances COL2A1 expression through the complex formation between SOX9 and Smad2/3.

About TF

TF name : SOX9(CMD1,CMPD1,SRA1,SRXX2,SRXY10)
TF experiment: Western blot,ChIP
TF experiment description: In Western blot(WB)analysis,CTS treatment(2h)did not influence total a mounts of endogenous Smad2/3 and SOX9 in each whole cell lysate(B,20 ?g/lane). However,Smad2/3 detected in the nuclear fraction was increased by CTS(C,nucleus,20 ?g/lane). In IP analys is using an anti-SOX9 antibody,CTS increased the association between phosphorylated Smad2/3 and SOX9 in the nuclear fraction derived from stretched SW1353 cells.
