Quantification of XYLT1 promoter activity after site-directed mutagenesis of Sp1 transcription factor binding sites. The XYLT1 wildtype vector (pGL4.10 XYLT1 c. − 1639 to c. + 1complete)29 was used to delete Sp1 transcription factor binding sites by site-directed mutagenesis. Modified sequences are indicated on the left. SW1353 cells were transfected with the promoter plasmids and relative promoter activity was quantified by dual luciferase assay. Relative promoter activities are referred to the activity of the unmutated wildtype construct, which was defined as 100%. Values are means ± SEM of six biological replicates. **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001; ****p < 0.0001 (Mann-Whitney U-test).
