Transcriptional analysis of acetylcholine receptor α3 gene promoter motifs that bind Sp1 and AP2

In this study, we performed an analysis of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor α3
subunit gene promoter region,− 238/+ 47, to identify cis and trans elements that are
important for basal activity in PC12 cells. Sequence analyses of the α3 promoter and
footprint assays revealed an Sp1 binding site between− 79 and− 57 (termed the α3 GA
motif) and an AP2 binding site between− 30 and− 7. Using mobility shift analysis, we found
that PC12 cell extracts contain proteins that specifically bind to the α3 GA motif and are …
