A Distinct Thyroid Hormone Response Element Mediates Repression of the Human Cholesterol 7α-Hydroxylase (CYP7A1) Gene Promoter
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We examined the molecular basis by which T3 regulates the human cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase gene (CYP7A1) promoter. L-T3 decreased chloramphenicol acetyltransferase activity in hepatoma cells cotransfected with a plasmid encoding the T3 receptor (TR) alpha [NR1a1] and a chimeric gene containing nucleotides -372 to +61 of the human CYP7A1 gene fused to the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase structural gene. Deoxyribonuclease I footprinting revealed that recombinant TRalpha protected two regions in this segment of the human CYP7A1 gene promoter. In EMSAs, TRalpha bound to both regions. The binding was competed by oligonucleotides bearing an idealized TRalpha binding motif and abolished by mutation of these elements. In assays of promoter function, mutation of only one of the TRalpha binding sites blocked repression by T3. The results indicate that T3-dependent repression of human CYP7A1 gene expression is mediated via a novel site in the human CYP7A1 gene promoter.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
