Fig. 2. MNX1-AS1 facilitates the expression of MNX1 via c-Myc and MAZ.

a MNX1 protein was markedly increased in pcDNA-MNX1-AS1 or pcDNA-MNX1 transfected RBE cells and significantly decreased in si-MNX1-AS1 or si-MNX1 transfected FRH0201 cells. The experiment was repeated three times for each group (***P < 0.001 by t-test). b The GeneCards and PROMO databases were used to predict TFs which may bind to the promoter region of MNX1. Only five TFs were shared between the two databases: YY1, c-Myc, MAZ, USF1, WT1. c ChIP assay showed the enrichment of c-Myc and MAZ over the MNX1 promoter region in FRH0201 and RBE cells. d The expression level of MNX1 protein was significantly decreased in si-c-Myc or si-MAZ transfected FRH0201 cells. e RegRNA database was used to predict c-Myc and MAZ binding sites on the nucleotide sequence of MNX1-AS1, which indicated that the binding sites did exist. RIP assay in FRH0201 cells further determined the previous predicting results. The experiment was repeated three times for each group. (***P < 0.001 by t-test).
