About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_015
Enhancer symbol: --
Species: Mouse
Position : chr14:67742375-67743103
Biosample name: Epithelial Cell,Granulosa Cells,GT1-7,GN11,Embryonic Stem Cell
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer

Pubmed ID:  21368045
Enhancer experiment: RT-PCR,Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer experiment description: Furthermore, studies in mice bearing either −3446/+23 or −2078/+23 bp of the mGnRH promoter fused to the LUC reporter defined a critical enhancer region for the in vivo expression of hypothalamic mGnRH (Kim et al., 2002).The quantitative RT-PCR primer sequences are available on request.

About Target gene

Target gene : Gnrh1(Gnrh,Gnrh2,LHRH,Lhrh1,Lnrh,hpg)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: Luciferase Reporter Assay
Target gene experiment description: In our previous study, using the luciferase (LUC) reporter gene, we found that the proximal −1005 bp of the mouse GnRH (mGnRH) promoter contains the critical elements for appropriate neuronal and ovarian expression of mGnRH (Kim et al., 2002). Furthermore, studies in mice bearing either −3446/+23 or −2078/+23 bp of the mGnRH promoter fused to the LUC reporter defined a critical enhancer region for the in vivo expression of hypothalamic mGnRH (Kim et al., 2002).

About TF

TF name : Oct1Gata4(ASD2,TACHD,TOF,VSD1)
TF experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
TF experiment description: Oct-1 and GATA-4 were identified as important transcription factors that bind to the neuron-specific Enhancer and regulate GnRH expression in vitro.

About Function

Enhancer function : This work supports the hypothesisthatthe region ofthe GnRH promoter contained between -2806 and -2078 bp acts as a cell-specific Enhancer in the GnRH neuron and as a repressor in the ovary.
Enhancer function experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer function
experiment description:
In this work, to further characterize the mGnRH promoter,we have constructed an additional transgenic mouse bearing a -2806/+23 bp fragment fused to the LUC reporter gene. This model demonstrates that critical hypothalamic Enhancer se_x005f_x0002_quences and ovarian repressor elements for the in vivo expression of mGnRH are located between -2806 and -2078 bp on the mGnRH promoter.
