The "four cystatin genes [GeneID: 1469 CST1, GeneID: 1470 CST2, GeneID: 1471 CST3, and GeneID: 1472 CST4] contain the ATA-box sequence (ATAAA) in their 5'-flanking regions; however, the CAT-box sequence (CAT), a binding site of the transcription factor, CTF, is found only in the 5'-flanking region of the S-type cystatin genes."[1]
The "5‘ flanking region of the rat acetylcholine receptor (AChR) β subunit gene [with] regulatory elements that confer muscle specificity [includes] a minimal TATA-box-less promoter region containing an initiator motif. An 85-bp fragment [promotes] high muscle-specific expression of a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter construct upon transfection in primary muscle cells. This sequence can be functionally dissected in a basal muscle-specific promoter element carrying a M-CAT box that is flanked at the 5’ end by an enhancer element with two binding sites for myogenic factors. Point mutations in the M-CAT box cause the loss of transcriptional activity of the basal promoter fragment. The enhancer activity depends on the presence of both E boxes that cooperate in a synergistic fashion. [The] control of muscle-specific and developmental expression of the rat AChR β subunit gene requires both regulatory elements, the M-CAT box and two adjacent E boxes, located in close proximity to each other."[2]
The "minimal regulatory region of the 5’ flanking sequence contains E box elements that are defined by the nucleotides CANNTG [26, 271. E boxes are shown to provide binding sites for helix-loop-helix proteins of the MyoDl family including MyoDl [28], myogenin [29, 301, MRF4/ herculin [31] and myf5 [32]."[2]
"Partial sequence of the 5' flanking region of the rat AChR β subunit gene [contains] putative E box element [CAGGTG], putative Sp1 element [GGGGCGGGT at -85 nts], putative Shue box element [CCCTGGCCTGG at -15 nts], M-CAT box element [GCGGCCTC at -8 nts]."[2]
"Within the first 140bp of the 5’ flanking region the position and sequence of three other putative regulatory elements, the Spl [43, 44], M-CAT [34] and Shue box [45], are conserved between mouse and rat".[2]
"The M-CAT consensus sequence [is] CATTCCT".[2]
"A CAT-box-like element, GCCATT [34], adjacent to the GC-box, is conserved in the three promoters."[2]
