Funkční analýza promotorů bezobratlovce (Branchiostoma floridae) v heterologních systémech / Functional analysis of invertebrate (Branchiostoma floridae) promoters in heterologous systems

Gurská, Daniela January 2011 (has links)
Understanding the mechanisms of transcriptional regulation and the constraints that operate in gene promoter sequences is the key step in understanding the evolutionary conservation of transcriptional regulation. It is well known that regulatory regions with the same expression outputs do not have to share the sequence similarity. The most important elements in regulatory sequences are transcription factor binding sites and their position relocation does not usually influence the expression output. The least complex transcriptional regulation is characteristic for housekeeping genes. For their expression they require only basal core promoter elements (sometimes only CpG islands are sufficient) and general transcription factors, so they can be transcribed easily and immediately whenever they are needed. In this study we focused on transcriptional regulation of invertebrate amphioxus (Branchiostoma floridae) housekeeping genes in vertebrate systems. We prepared a set of constructs with amphioxus regulatory regions for testing their activity in different mammalian cell lines and a set of constructs with the same amphioxus regulatory regions for observing their spatial recognition in developing medaka fish embryo. We found that half of investigated amphioxus regulatory regions are recognized by...
