-1625 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on MD-2 promoter activity. Methods PCR and site direct mutation technology were used to construct MD-2 basic promoter and -1064 G
-1625 G mutate promoter. Dual-Luciferase Reporter assay system was used to detect the activity of constructed promoter. Results In U937 cells
the activity of -1625 G mutate promoter was higher than -1625C promoter
and there was no significant difference between -1064A promoter and -1064 G promoter activity. Conclusion It is implied that -1625 C→G base variation can enhance the activity of MD-2 promoter
while -1064 SNP has no effect on MD-2 promoter activity.
