Research Abstract

FTZ-F1β had been implicated to be a counterpart of Ad4BP and mainly expressed in liver and pancreas. We elucidated the structure of the human FTZ-F1β gene. We determined the exonic sequences including the exon/intron baundaries and the sequences at the 5'-flanking region. The gene is at least 50 Kb long and is split into 8 exons including a non-coding exon 1. The overall structural organization of human FTZ-F1β gene was very similar to that of human Ad4BP/SF-1 gene, suggesting that both genes are derived from common ancestor gene. In addition, a preliminary study of transcriptional regulation of human FTZ-F1β gene in Hep G2 cells using a series of deletion analysies of the 5'-flanking region of human FTZ-F1β gene revealed a upstream region of -1743 to -1040 bp from the transcriptional statsite to be essential for the basal transcription of the human FTZ-F1β gene in Hep G2 cells.
