About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_134
Enhancer symbol: ERE Enhancer
Species: Human
Position : chr6:161110725-161112725
Biosample name: Hep G2,MCF-7
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Hypoplasminogenemia
DO: --
Mesh: --
Distance from TSS: >2KB
Pubmed ID:  23872150
Enhancer experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay,ChIP,EMSA,PCR
Enhancer experiment description: An AP3-like (activator protein 3) enhancer element, located 2.4 kb upstream of PLG-TSS, is involved in PLG transcriptional regulationIn summary we demonstrated that estrogen regulates plasminogen promoter activity. The 5’-flanking region of the PLG gene con_x0002_tains several cis-acting elements that are responsive to estrogen.An enhancer located at -11.5 kb confers a dramatic estrogen re_x0002_sponse in reporter assays.

About Target gene

Target gene : PLG(PLG)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: Luciferase Reporter Assay,PCR
Target gene experiment description: In our study we could show that a construct comprising the entire upstream region, containing the AP3 re_x0002_sponse element (2.4 kb-PLG) was able to further elevate basal luciferase activity 1.7-fold above that of PLG minimal promoters.The observed increase corresponds well to previously published results [20] and the 2.4 kb-PLG construct represents the most active contiguous promoter fragment analysed in this study. Surprisingly, with E2 stimulation this effect decreased by 54% down to the activity level of the PLG core promoter,although no ERE could be identified within this region.

TF experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
TF experiment description: Transcriptional effect of the DHII and/or ERE (_x0003_11.5 kb) enhancers on the heterologous crystallin promoter (cryst) driven luciferase activity in HepG2.

About Function

Enhancer function : The intergenic region between both genes comprises several transcription-regulatory regions with Enhancer sequences that increase the basal activity of the PLG core promoter.
Enhancer function experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer function
experiment description:
An estrogen response element located 11.5 kb upstream of the PLG transcription start site is able to convey a dramatic estrogen-dependent elevation of PLG-minimal promoter driven reporter gene expression.
