To identify the essential motifs of the promoter of the human gene for thymidylate synthase (TS), we constructed a set of deletion mutants from the 5'-terminal region of the human TS gene. From the results of assays of the expression of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT), we identified two functional elements with positive effects on the promoter activity: a CACCC box (CCACACCC) and an Sp1-binding motif (GAGGCGGA) that was homologous to the Sp1-binding site in the mouse TS gene. In addition, negative regulatory sequences were identified between the two positive elements and in the region upstream of the CACCC box. The results of gel mobility shift analyses suggested that Sp1 binds to the Sp1-binding motif of the human TS gene promoter and that multiple nuclear factors that are related to Sp1 bind to the CACCC box. Furthermore, the binding of Sp1 to mutated Sp1-binding motifs in the promoter region of the human TS gene was correlated with the promoter activity, as measured by the CAT assay. Therefore, the Sp1 motif seems to be a major contributor to the basic promoter activity of the human TS gene, although multiple positive and negative regulatory elements are involved in the regulated expression of this gene.  相似文献
