Pubmed ID:  21937508
Enhancer experiment: RT-PCR,ChIP
Enhancer experiment description: In order to gain insight into the epigenetic regulation of u-PAR expression, ChIP assays were employed in an unbiased screen to identify histone modifications or exchange of histone variants at the u-PAR promoter and enhancer under conditions of gene activation.Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) was performed using chromatin generated from either unstimulated or PMA-stimulated GEO cells using primer sets corresponding to the promoter, enhancer and intron 3 (Figure 1A and C).

About Target gene

Target gene : Plaur(Cd87,u-PAR,uPAR)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: RT-PCR,ChIP
Target gene experiment description: In order to gain insight into the epigenetic regulation of u-PAR expression, ChIP assays were employed in an unbiased screen to identify histone modifications or exchange of histone variants at the u-PAR promoter and enhancer under conditions of gene activation.Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) was performed using chromatin generated from either unstimulated or PMA-stimulated GEO cells using primer sets corresponding to the promoter, enhancer and intron 3 (Figure 1A and C).

About TF

TF name : Jun(AP-1,AP1,c-Jun,cJUN,p39)
TF experiment: ChIP
TF experiment description: AP-1 binding to the u-PAR gene precedes H2A.Z eviction. ChIP assay showing the kinetics of (A) AP-1 (using a mixture of pan antibodies directed against Fos and Jun family members) (B) H2A.Z (C) RNAP II (using an antibody against RNAP II phosphorylated at Serine 5) deposition at the u-PAR promoter and enhancer in response to 100?nm PMA for the indicated times.

About Function
