“…For the present study, it was helpful that an intermediate position between these extremes belongs to SNPs in the DNA sites binding to the TATA-binding protein (TBP); these SNPs constitute ~10% of all the known regulatory SNP markers relevant to medicine, whereas TBP is only one of 2600 known DNA-binding proteins in humans [ 31 ]. The above-mentioned special place of such SNPs can be mostly explained by the necessity of a TBP-binding site within the [−70; −20] region of the promoter for any mRNA [ 32 ] because RNA polymerase II binds to the anchoring complex TBP-promoter, and this event triggers assembly of the transcription preinitiation complex for this mRNA [ 33 ]. These results were obtained in studies on unviability of TBP -null animals [ 34 ] or animals harboring a knockdown [ 35 ] of the TBP gene.…”

“…On the other hand, the effects of SNPs that are located in regulatory regions of genes [ 38 , 70 ] are still difficult to predict in silico [ 71 ]. Most studies in this field deal with regulatory SNPs in binding sites of TATA-binding protein (TBP) in the region [-70; -20] upstream of the transcription start of various mRNAs encoded in the human genome [ 72 , 73 ] (assembly of the preinitiation complex starts with binding of RNA polymerase to the anchoring TBP/DNA complex [ 74 , 75 ]). For this reason, model animals with a null-mutation [ 76 ] or a knockdown of TBP [ 77 ] are always inviable.…”
