About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_194
Enhancer symbol: ephrin-A5 Enhancer
Species: Mouse
Position : chr17:62627957-62633457
Biosample name: Mesencephalon
Experiment class : Low throughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: --
DO: --
Mesh: --
Distance from TSS: Intron
Pubmed ID:  28614915
Enhancer experiment: Luciferase Reporter Assay
Enhancer experiment description: Luciferase activity assay showing that Ascl1- E47 fusion protein induces transcriptional activation through the ephrin-A5 E-box DNA.Taken together, our findings suggest that the mesencephalon-specific enhancer of ephrin-A5 resided in a genomic region that is +11.6 kb to +57.7 kb from the TSS and is within the first intron (Fig. 1A).

About Target gene

Target gene : Efna5(AL-1,AV158822,EFL-5,Ephrin-A5,Epl7,LERK-7,RAGS)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: Luciferase Reporter Assay,PCR
Target gene experiment description: To further restrict the possible locations of the mesencephalon-specific enhancer within the first intron, the 375B7 BAC was modified using a different targeting vector. Importantly, transgenic embryos carrying this recombinant BAC did not show significant LacZ expression in the mesencephalon (Fig. 2C, first panel from the left). This suggested that the deleted 30.4 kb region included the mesencephalon-specific enhancer of ephrin-A5.This suggests that the potential enhancer for ephrin-A5 expression in the mesencephalon was in a 5.5 kb genomic region from +25 kb to +30.5 kb of the TSS.

About TF

TF name : Ascl1(AI225900,ASH1,Mash1,bHLHa46)
TF experiment: EMSA,Luciferase Reporter Assay
TF experiment description: Finally, both electrophoretic mobility shift assay and luciferase-based transactivation assay revealed that the transcription factor Ascl1 bound the bHLH consensus binding site in the mesencephalon-specific ephrin-A5 enhancer in vitro.
