Abstract:

Adipose triglyceride lipase(ATGL)is the main rate limiting enzyme in the process of fat hydrolysis.In order to analyze the structure and transcriptional regulation mechanism of ATGL promoter in dairy goat,the 5' flanking sequence of ATGL was amplified by PCR and analyzed by bioinformatics.Luciferase reporter gene vectors of five deletion fragments with different lengths of promoter were constructed and transfected into mammary epithelial cells of dairy goat.The cells were treated with rosiglitazone and T0901317 respectively to detect the effects of PPARG and SREBP1 on ATGL promoter activity.The results showed that the 5' flanking sequence of ATGL gene of dairy goat was 2 721 bp,including 2 024 bp upstream from the transcription start site.The ATGL promoter contained eukaryotic promoter elements TATA-box and CpG island.It was also found that there were transcription factors-binding sites of FOXO,SREBF1,PPARG,C/EBPα and E2F1 by the online software prediction.The core region of ATGL promoter was located at -256—+1,and there were negative regulatory elements at -527—-256.When cells were treated with rosiglitazone and T0901317,it was found that both of them could significantly up-regulate ATGL promoter activity.The response regions of rosiglitazone and T0901317 were -527—-256 and -882—-527,respectively,indicating that PPARG and SREBP1 could regulate ATGL promoter activity.
