Characteristics of the fads2 gene promoter in marine teleost Epinephelus coioides and role of Sp1-binding site in determining promoter activity
Abstract
Δ6 fatty acyl desaturase (Fads2) is a rate-limiting enzyme in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) biosynthesis. Comparative analysis of gene promoters of Fads2 between salmonids and carnivorous marine fish suggested that the lack of binding site for stimulatory protein 1 (Sp1) was responsible for the low expression of fads 2 gene of carnivorous marine species. To confirm this speculation, the fads 2 candidate promoter (2646 bp) was...
