摘要： Fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP3) is involved in signal transduction pathways, and in the uptake and utilization of long-chain fatty acids. However, the transcriptional regulation of FABP3 in goat is unclear. In this study, the FABP3 5 ' flanking region was amplified from goat (Capra hircus) genomic DNA. Luciferase reporter vectors containing promoter fragments of five different lengths were constructed and transfected into dairy goat mammary epithelial cells. The region of the promoter located between -1801 and -166 bp upstream of the transcription start site (TSS) exhibited the highest luciferase activity, and contained two cAMP response elements (CREs) located at -1632 bp and -189 bp. Interference with CREB1 significantly downregulated FABP3 promoter activity. In addition, FABP3 promoter activity was significantly reduced after mutation of the CRE1 (-1632 bp) and CRE2 (-189 bp) sites. Further analysis indicated that the CRE2 site was essential for the transcriptional activity induced by CREB1. These results demonstrated that CREB1 is involved in the transcriptional regulation of FABP3 expression in the goat mammary gland via a direct mechanism, thus revealing a novel signaling pathway involved in fatty acid metabolism in goat.
