We reported the human flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) haplotypes (Pharmacogenet. Genomics: 17, 827, 2007). The objective was to gain the insight into transcriptional regulation in a Japanese population. The wild-type FMO3 reporter plasmids carrying 5'-flanking sequence from the transcriptional initiation site of the FMO3 haplotype 1 (prepared from three individuals) showed higher luciferase activities in HepG2 cells than those from the FMO3 haplotypes 2 and 3, with the wild-type coding region. Several deletion mutants of the FMO3 haplotype 1 (extending from -5,167 to -1,764, numbered relative to the A of the ATG translational initiation codon) revealed that the region of -2,064 to -1,804 contained an important cis-acting element(s) for activation of the FMO3 gene expression. Putative hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 (HNF-4) binding site and CCAAT box, but not Yin Yang 1 element, could be responsible cis-acting elements of the FMO3 gene, by site-directed mutagenesis analysis. The unknown suppressive cis-element(s) at the 5'-upstream region from -2,064 might show genetic polymorphism, because the FMO3 haplotypes 2 and 3 had three and ten mutations, respectively. These results suggest that the putative HNF-4 binding site and CCAAT box could be responsible cis-acting elements of the FMO3 gene in Japanese.
