We have characterized the promoter of the mouse retinoic acid receptor alpha 2 (mRAR-alpha 2) isoform. This promoter contains a retinoic acid response element (RARE) that closely resembles the RARE that is present in the RAR-beta 2 promoter. Moreover, RAR-alpha 2 and RAR-beta 2 proximal promoter sequences are similar to each other and generate transcripts whose respective start sites are located at similar positions. The RAR-alpha 2 RARE consists of two directly repeated 5'-GTTCA-3' motifs to which all three RARs (alpha, beta, and gamma) bind in vitro.
我们已对小鼠视黄酸受体α2(mRAR-α2)亚型的启动子进行了表征。该启动子包含一个视黄酸反应元件(RARE),它与RAR-β2启动子中存在的RARE非常相似。此外,RAR-α2和RAR-β2近端启动子序列彼此相似,并产生各自起始位点位于相似位置的转录本。RAR-α2 RARE由两个直接重复的5'-GTTCA-3'基序组成,所有三种RAR(α、β和γ)在体外均能与之结合。
