From: Divergent activity of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor gene promoter among genetic lines of pigs is partially conferred by nuclear factor (NF)-kB, specificity protein (SP)1-like and GATA-4 binding sites

Reduction of the Meishan GnRHR promoter to −1004 bp eliminates its enhanced activity. Luciferase (LUC) reporter vectors containing either 1915, 1431, 1004 or 524 bp of proximal promoter for the GnRHR gene from Meishan, Index and Control lines of swine or promoterless control (pGL3) were transiently transfected into αT3-1 cells. Unique letters within vectors containing the same portion of 5’ flanking sequence (−1915, −1431, −1004 or −524) for each swine line (brackets) indicate values that are significantly different from one another (P < 0.05)
