AGCE gene transcriptions
Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Henry A. Hoff
Angiotensinogen core promoter element 1 (AGCE1) is an example of a core promoter element that may occur in a DNA sequence for only one gene (the human angiotensinogen gene angiotensin).
"[T]he core promoter element 1 (AGCE1) of the human angiotensinogen gene (AGT) ... acts as a critical regulator of AGT transcription".[1]
Human genes
Gene ID: 183 is angiotensinogen (serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade A, member 8) [ Homo sapiens ] has the official symbol AGT.[2]
Consensus sequences
The consensus sequence is (A/C)T(C/T).[1] By convention, this is MTY on the mRNA, with T replaced by uracil (U).
The core nucleotides for AGCE1 include (A/C)T(C/T)GTG, "located between the TATA box and transcription initiation site (positions −25 to −1) is an authentic regulator of human AG transcription."[3]
AGCE1 can occur upstream from -25 to -1 base pairs (bp)s of the transcription start site.[1]
A1BG gene transcriptions
An AGCE1 occurs at ATC, in the nucleotides before the transcription start site for the transcription of A1BG, which ends 5 bp upstream from the TSS and is the only AGCE1 within -25 and -1 bp of the TSS. Usually, the AGCE1 spans -20 to -18 bp, when a TATA box is present.[1]
However, for the transcription of A1BG, there is no TATA box and the core nucleotides GTG do not occur on either side of ATC.
Hypotheses
- AGCE1 does not participate in the transcription of A1BG.

Comparison:
The occurrences of real AGCE UTRs, positive direction cores, and distals are greater than the randoms, but low occurrences of positive direction distals overlaps randoms. This suggests that the real AGCEs are likely active or activable.
