Abstract:
Objective To clone and to identify the core promoter of human TSLCI used for exploring of transcrip-tion regulatory mechanism.Methods A series of different fragments located in the upstream of translation start site of TSLC1 were amplified from human genomic DNA by PCR,and then constructed into pGL3-Basic luciferase re-porter vector.The activity of different fragments in A549 and NCI-H446 cells was examined by a dual-luciferase as-say after transient transfection,and then the core promoter of TSLC1 was identified.Results Among the different constructs,the fragment of -68 ～ -329 bp located in the upstream of ATG showed the strong activity both in A549 cells and NCI-H446 cells,which played an important role in the transcription of TSLC1.Conclusion The fragment of -68 ～ -329 bp located in the upstream of translation start site of TSLC1 might be the core promoter region.
