The human immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene contains at least two tissue-specific regulatory regions, which are similar to the mouse IgH gene. One is the J-C enhancer and another is located in the 5' promoter region. Using an electrophoretic mobility shift assay and DNase I footprint, we have examined the interaction of factors in B cell nuclear extracts with the two regulatory regions of the human IgH gene. We have identified a nuclear factor in mouse B cell nuclear extracts which bound to specific sequence in the human IgH enhancer. This factor is apparently not present in mouse fibroblast nuclear extracts. We also found factor(s) which bound to the highly conserved octanucleotide sequence within the human IgH enhancer and 5' promoter regions.
人类免疫球蛋白重链(IgH)基因包含至少两个组织特异性调控区,这与小鼠IgH基因相似。一个是J-C增强子,另一个位于5'启动子区域。利用电泳迁移率变动分析和DNase I足迹法,我们检测了B细胞核提取物中的因子与人类IgH基因的两个调控区之间的相互作用。我们在小鼠B细胞核提取物中鉴定出一种与人类IgH增强子中的特定序列结合的核因子。该因子在小鼠成纤维细胞核提取物中显然不存在。我们还发现了与人类IgH增强子和5'启动子区域内高度保守的八聚体序列结合的因子。
