TATA box polymorphisms in human gene promoters and associated hereditary pathologies

Abstract: TATA-binding protein (TBP) is the first basal factor that recognizes and binds a TATA box on TATA-containing gene promoters transcribed by RNA polymerase II. Data available in the literature are indicative of admissible variability of the TATA box. The TATA box flanking sequences can influence TBP affinity as well as the level of basal and activated transcription. The possibility of mediated involvement in in vivo gene expression regulation of the TBP interactions with variant TATA boxes is supported by data o… Show more

“…Chst12 and Grifin reside in an 86 kb region (chr12: chr12:14,541,567-14,627,442 bp) that was unique to the hypertensive SS strain compared to normotensive BN, SR, and WKY strains (Figure 3). Within this region, 4 variants unique to the SS altered binding sites in the proximal Chst12 regulatory regions for multiple TF have been previously implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension (e.g., NF- k B, 31, 32 Sp1, 33-35 and TBP 36 ).…”

“…Our approach to identifying this motif was based on an observation of a human mutation. A compendium of human mutations that reveal functional sites within core promoters, such as single nucleotide substitutions in thalassemias, confirms that analyses of these types of mutations have been useful for defining novel instances of promoter motifs (43). …”

“…Despite this variability in the TATA boxes, some TATA containing promoters may be very sensitive to mutations in TATA boxes. This is confirmed by molecular genetically and clini cally identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of TATA boxes in human gene promoters asso ciated with predisposition to hereditary diseases (Savinkova et al, 2009). …”
