About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0976
Species: mouse
Position : chr3:34563695-34565695
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: --
Pubmed ID:  21331042
Enhancer experiment: EMSA,Immunostaining,Transgenic mice
Enhancer experiment description: Our earlier studies have indicated that among a number of enhancers regulating Sox2, enhancer N1 is responsible for Sox2 activation in the caudally extendin neural plate5,6 (Fig.1a-c; Supplementary Fig.1).

About Target gene

Target gene : Sox2(ANOP3,MCOPS3)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: EMSA,Immunostaining
Target gene experiment description: Finally, we asked whether the suppression of Sox2 enhancer N1 activation by Tbx6 involves direct interaction of the Tbx6 protein with the enhancer N1 DNA sequence. Various overlapping fragments of the N1 sequence were tested for Tbx6 binding using electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA). Exogenous Sox2-HA was successfully expressed in the caudal-most mesodermal compartment (Fig.4b), as indicated by HA-tag immunostaining and the mesodermal Sox2 immunostaining (Fig.4c-e). This result demonstrates that Sox2 expression is sufficient for the initiation of neural tube development from the primitive paraxial mesoderm, even in wild type embryos.
