Syntaxin 1A Gene Is Negatively Regulated in a Cell/Tissue Specific Manner by YY1 Transcription Factor, Which Binds to the −183 to −137 Promoter Region Together with Gene Silencing Factors Including Histone Deacetylase

The HPC-1/syntaxin 1A (<i>Stx1a</i>) gene, which is involved in synaptic transmission and neurodevelopmental disorders, is a TATA-less gene with several transcription start sites. It is activated by the binding of Sp1 and acetylated histone H3 to the −204 to +2 core promoter region (CPR)...
