Abstract

The function of noncoding sequence variations at ZNF143 binding sites in breast cancer cells is currently not well understood. Distal elements and promoters, also known as cis-regulatory elements, control the expression of genes. They may be identified by functional genomic techniques and sequence conservation, and they frequently show cell- and tissue-type specificity. The creation, destruction, or modulation of TF binding and function may be influenced by genetic modifications at TF binding sites that affect the binding affinity. Therefore, noncoding mutations that affect the ZNF143 binding site may be able to alter the expression of some genes in breast cancer. In order to understand the relationship among ZNF143, gene expression patterns, and noncoding mutations, we adopted an integrative strategy in this study and paid close attention to putative immunological signaling pathways. The immune system-related pathways ErbB, HIF1a, NF-kB, FoxO, JAK-STAT, Wnt, Notch, cell cycle, PI3K-AKT, RAP1, calcium signaling, cell junctions and adhesion, actin cytoskeleton regulation, and cancer pathways are among those that may be significant, according to the overall analysis.
