Sequence analysis has revealed a DNA motif (GGGGAATTTGCT) similar to NF-кB consensus sequence resides in the negative regulatory element (-3028bp~ -2902bp, termed ε-NRAII) 5' to the cap site of this gene. NRF DNA fragment (-3010bp~ -2986bp) containing the NF-кB motif similar sequence was synthesized and used in electrophoresis mobility shift assay (EMSA) and competitive analysis. Data showed that a protein factor from nuclear extracts of K562 cells specifically interacted with NRF DNA fragment. The synthetic NF DNA fragment (containing NF-кB consensus sequence) could competed for the protein binding, but MNF DNA fragment (mutated NF-кB motif) could not, suggesting that the binding protein is a member of NF-кB/Rel family. Western blot assay demonstrated that the molecular weight of NF-кB protein in the nuclei of K562 cells is 50ku. We suggested that NF-кB p50 may play an important role in the regulation of human c-globin gene expression.展开更多
