TWIST2 transcriptionally activates the POSTN promoter. Deletion constructs of the POSTN promoter was transfected by nucleofection (AMAXA) together with plasmids encoding TWIST1, TWIST2, or Q119X. TWIST2 significantly activates the POSTN promoter when compared to Q119X and Twist1. Maximum activation is observed for the promoter with 4 out of the 5 E-boxes in place. Error bars represent standard deviation, and means that were statistically significant from the control were highlighted with asterisks (p<0.001=***).
