摘要: 摘要:目的 研究红系分化过程中,红系分化特异转录因子EKLF对miR-96的表达调控。方法:氯化高铁血红素(Hemin)诱导人K562细胞(人红白血病细胞系)向红系分化,Real-time PCR检测miR-96表达。生物信息学分析miR-96转录起始点上游可能的EKLF结合位点。并经染色质免疫共沉淀(ChIP)与双荧光报告基因实验验证EKLF与这些位点结合的生物学意义。结果 Hemin诱导K562细胞向红系分化过程中,miR-96表达显著升高,且在48h表达最高(3.94156±0.63995, p<0.05)。生物信息学分析显示miR-96转录起始位点上游2.0kb内含有多个EKLF结合位点。经ChIP验证这些位点有EKLF的结合,且EKLF与这些位点结合能募集RNA聚合酶II(Pol II)结合,起始转录。进一步的双荧光报告基因实验也证明EKLF对miR-96转录起始点上游序列具有转录激活作用。结论EKLF转录激活miR-96在红系分化过程中的表达。

Abstract: Abstract:Objective To study the regulation of Erythroid Kruppel-like factor (ELKF) on the expression of miR-96 in Erythropoiesis. Method K562 cells were induced to erythroid differentiation by Hemin. The expression of miR-96 during erythroid differentiation was detected by real-time PCR. Bioinformatic analysis was used to search for binding sites for EKLF within 2kb upstream sequence of transcriptional start site (TSS) of miR-96. Biology function of these sites were detected by ChIP-PCR combined with Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay. Result miR-96 expression was increased during erythroid differentiation of k562 cells induced by Hemin and peaked at 48h (3.94156±0.63995, p<0.05). Several binding sites within 2kb upstream sequence of TSS of miR-96, occupied with EKLF can recruit RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and promote the expression of downstream genes. Conclusion EKLF activates the expression of miR-96 in Erythropoiesis directly.
