About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0985
Species: human
Position : chr16:67519201-67519833
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: --
Pubmed ID:  19285986
Enhancer experiment: Transgenic mice,Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer experiment description: Schematic representation of the genomic region encompassing the AgRP and the ATPase locus. Expression constructs for regions A, B, C, and D were directionally cloned into pGL3-basic luciferase vector.Regions C and D were evaluated in the same fashion. Region D (but not region C) contained enhancer elements in both neuronal and somatic cell types (Fig. 1a). Region D was therefore divided into three overlapping sub-regions: Di(-18/+312)(+2727/+3359), Dii(-18/+312) (+3341/+3941), and Diii(-18/+312)(+3943/+4575). Sub-regions Di and Diii (but not Dii) had enhancer properties for the AgRP basal promoter in both h295R and N38 cell lines (Fig. 1b).Fig. 1. In vitro determination of enhancer elements

About Target gene

Target gene : AGRP(AGRT,ART,ASIP2)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: Transgenic mice,Luciferase Reporter Assay
Target gene experiment description: Region D (but not C) increased activity of the human AgRP promoter, equally in the human adrenocortical NCI-h295R and the mouse clonal hypothalamic N38 cell lines.
