چکیده انگلیسی
The availability of high-throughput genomic sequencing has allowed us to construct a more robust characterization of retinoic acid response elements than was possible in the past. We located human, mouse, and rat homologs for each of 51 well-documented, conserved retinoic acid response elements. Mathematical and statistical analyses of these 153 sites, 78 of which are new, shows that 92% of response elements have direct-repeat symmetry, but that only 76% exhibit canonical spacing attributes. While the familiar '(a/g)g(g/t)tca' hexamer motif is upheld, the more relaxed sequence, '(a/g)g(g/t)(g/t)(g/c)a', represents a 10% consensus. Sites are as likely to be on the coding strand as on the non-coding strand, and 86% of them are in upstream locations. From a statistical point of view, DR1 elements are fundamentally different from DR2 and DR5 elements, but this is only evident in the 5â² hexamer. While there is considerable variation in core positions, and while no nucleotide can be considered forbidden at any position, variation among species at a fixed locus appears surprisingly constrained once a functional site has been attained.
