چکیده انگلیسی
The nucleotide sequences of the proximal promoters of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A8 and 1A9 genes are very similar. However, UGT1A8 and 1A9 are mainly expressed in extra-hepatic and hepatic cells, respectively. Using mutants of UGT1A8 and 1A9 proximal promoters, we revealed their critical differences in terms of promoter activity and the role of the T-repeat region (T-region) conserved in both promoters. In extra-hepatic cells, Caco2, the activity of UGT1A9 proximal promoter increased to 73.4 ± 8.5% of that of the UGT1A8 proximal promoter with only 4 base changes: -160C, -152A, -62T, and -59G. The derivatives of the T-region showed that this region is not necessary for promoter activity, but the length of T repeats influences the activity somewhat. Therefore, the cause of the low activity of the UGT1A9 proximal promoter may be not only 4 base changes, but also the truncation of T repeats. From these results, the UGT1A9 proximal promoter was assumed to change into the non-active form from the original sequence, and this might be one of the reasons for the tissue-specific expression of UGT1A9.
