About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_092
Enhancer symbol: --
Species: Human
Position : chr12:7940709-7941994
Biosample name: HEK-293
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: --
DO: --
Mesh: --
Distance from TSS: <2KB
Pubmed ID:  21689639
Enhancer experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer experiment description: Genome sequence analysis of the enhancer region of the human NANOG gene showed the presence of two conserved Tcf/Lef--binding motifs: CAAAGA at positions --1206 to --1190 (designated as Lef #1) and an inverted GTTTCA sequence at ?1020 to ?1004 (designated as Lef #2) (Fig. 1A). To investigate whether Tcf/Lef elements located in the enhancer region play a role in the regulation of NANOG gene transcription, we isolated a 1286--bp fragment of the enhancer region of the human NANOG gene and subcloned it into a firefly luciferase reporter vector, yielding pNanog--Luc(--1286/--1).

About TF

TF name : LEF1(LEF-1,TCF10,TCF1ALPHA,TCF7L3)
TF experiment: ChIP
TF experiment description: ChIP experiments demonstrated that b-catenin and Lef1 bind to the Enhancer region of the NANOG gene. Our present findings would appear to indicate that the Tcf/Lef element in the Enhancer region of the Human NANOG gene functions in transcriptional activation of the Human NANOG gene.
