Analysis of LOC112840920 Gene (Mutation) by RT-qPCR (CAT#: STEM-MT-1607-LGZ)

Introduction

Gene description: Sharpr-MPRA regulatory region 5965
Gene type: biological region
This genomic sequence was predicted to be a transcriptional regulatory region based on the chromatin state analysis of the ENCODE (Encyclopedia of DNA Elements) project. A ChIP-STARR-seq massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) in immature human embryonic stem cells validated the major subregion as an active enhancer where it is marked by the H3K27ac histone modification. Another subregion was validated as an enhancer by Sharpr-MPRA (Systematic high-resolution activation and repression profiling with reporter tiling using massively parallel reporter assays) in both HepG2 liver carcinoma cells (group: HepG2 Activating DNase unmatched - State 1: Tss, active promoter , TSS/CpG island region) and K562 erythroleukemia cells (group: K562 Activating DNase unmatched - State 1:Tss). This locus also includes an accessible chromatin subregion that was validated as a silencer based on its ability to repress an origin of replication minimal core promoter by the ATAC-STARR-seq (assay for transposase-accessible chromatin with self-transcribing active regulatory region sequencing) MPRA in GM12878 lymphoblastoid cells.
