About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0963
Species: human
Position : chr14:55518040-55518674
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: --
Pubmed ID:  21673114
Enhancer experiment: Transfection,EMSA,PCR
Enhancer experiment description: To refine the cis-regulatory elements involved in controlling Nrl expression further, we tested the sequences within the three conserved clusters by in vivo transfection.

About Target gene

Target gene : Nrl(D14H14S46E)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: EMSA
Target gene experiment description: In silico analysis using the TRANSFAC database (46) revealed a number of conserved putative transcription factor binding sites within B2(transcriptionally active sequence in clusterB)and clusterA(Fig.3,A and B, respectively). To identify the involvement of specific transcription factors, we performed EMSA using several different oligonucleotides spanning the conserved sequence elements(Fig. 4).

About TF

TF name : Rorb(Nr1f2,RZR-beta,RZRBeta,hstp,Rorb)Crx(Crx1)NrlNr2e3
TF experiment: EMSA
TF experiment description: Electrophoretic mobility shift assays using mouse retinal nuclear extracts, in combination with specific antibodies,demonstrate the binding of retinoid-related orphan nuclear receptor(ROR?),cone rod homeobox,orthodenticle homolog 2,and cyclic AMP response element-binding protein to predicted consensus elements within clusters A and B.Our studies demonstrate Nrl as a direct transcriptional target of ROR? and suggest that combinatorial action of multiple regulatory factors modulates the expression of Nrl in developing and mature retina.
