Differential allelic expression (DAE) is a powerful tool to identify cis-regulatory elements for gene expression. The UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2 family, polypeptide B15 (UGT2B15), is an important enzyme involved in the metabolism of multiple endobiotics and xenobiotics. In the present study, we measured the relative expression of two alleles at SNP c.1568C>A (rs4148269) in this gene, which causes...
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2 family, polypeptide B4 (UGT2B4) is an important metabolizing enzyme involved in the clearance of many xenobiotics and endogenous substrates, especially steroid hormones and bile acids. The HapMap data show that numerous SNPs upstream of UGT2B4 are in near-perfect linkage disequilibrium with each other and occur at intermediate frequency, indicating that this region might...
Allelic imbalance (AI) is a powerful tool to identify cis‐regulatory variation for gene expression. UGT2B15 is an important enzyme involved in the metabolism of multiple endobiotics and xenobiotics. In this study, we measured the relative expression of two alleles at this gene by using SNP rs1902023:G>T. An excess of the G over the T allele was consistently observed in liver (P<0.001), but not...
The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) plays an essential role in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation and apoptosis. Raptor, the regulatory associated protein of mTOR, is an important member in this signaling pathway. In the present report, we identified and characterized a novel splicing variant of this gene, RAPTOR_v2, in which exons 14–17, 474bp in total, are omitted from the mRNA. This...
