Rap1 regulatory factor gene transcriptions

Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Henry A. Hoff

"Rap1 is another GRF that organizes chromatin, binds promoters of genes that encode ribosomal and glycolytic proteins, and binds telomeres (Shore 1994; Ganapathi et al. 2011; Hughes and de Boer 2013). [...] DNA shape analysis revealed that Rap1 motifs possess an intrinsically wide minor groove spanning the central degenerate region of the motif that was wider at binding-competent sites [...]. A clear trend was observed between increased width of the minor groove in the central degenerate region of the motif and increased Rap1 binding in vitro."[1]

Consensus sequences

Consensus sequences: C(A/C/G)(A/C/G)(A/G)(C/G/T)C(A/C/T)(A/G/T)(C/G/T)(A/G/T)(A/C/G)(A/C)(A/C/T)(A/C/T).[1]

Reduced consensus sequence including more frequent nucleotides: (A/G)(A/C)ACCC(A/G)N(A/G)C(A/C)(C/T)(A/C).[1]

"When the core DNA sequence of the Rap1 motif [...] was held constant (ACCCRnRCA), less than half of the sites were detectably bound [...]."[1]

Rap1 samplings

Copying an apparent consensus sequence for Rap1 (CCCACCAACAAAA) and putting it in "⌘F" finds none located between ZSCAN22 or none between ZNF497 and A1BG as can be found by the computer programs.

For the Basic programs testing consensus sequence ACCC(A/G)N(A/G)CA (starting with SuccessablesRAP.bas) written to compare nucleotide sequences with the sequences on either the template strand (-), or coding strand (+), of the DNA, in the negative direction (-), or the positive direction (+), the programs are, are looking for, and found:

  1. negative strand, negative direction, looking for ACCC(A/G)N(A/G)CA, 0.
  2. positive strand, negative direction, looking for ACCC(A/G)N(A/G)CA, 0.
