Context-dependent regulation of GATA-1 by friend of GATA-1.
The transcription factor GATA-1 and its cofactor, friend of GATA-1 (FOG-1), are essential for normal erythroid development. FOG-1 physically interacts with GATA-1 to augment or inhibit its activity. The mechanisms by which FOG-1 regulates GATA-1 function are unknown. By using an assay that is based on the phenotypic rescue of a GATA-1-null erythroid cell line, we found that a conditional form o...
متن کاملControlling hematopoiesis through sumoylation-dependent regulation of a GATA factor.
GATA factors establish transcriptional networks that control fundamental developmental processes. Whereas the regulator of hematopoiesis GATA-1 is subject to multiple posttranslational modifications, how these modifications influence GATA-1 function at endogenous loci is unknown. We demonstrate that sumoylation of GATA-1 K137 promotes transcriptional activation only at target genes requiring th...
متن کاملA paradoxical mutant GATA factor.
The niiA (nitrite reductase) and niaD (nitrate reductase) genes of Aspergillus nidulans are subject to both induction by nitrate and repression by ammonium or glutamine. The intergenic region between these genes functions as a bidirectional promoter. In this region, nucleosomes are positioned under nonexpression conditions. On nitrate induction under derepressing conditions, total loss of posit...
متن کاملContext-dependent transcriptional cooperation mediated by cardiac transcription factors Csx/Nkx-2.5 and GATA-4.
Although the cardiac homeobox gene Csx/Nkx-2.5 is essential for normal heart development, little is known about its regulatory mechanisms. In a search for the downstream target genes of Csx/Nkx-2. 5, we found that the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) gene promoter was strongly transactivated by Csx/Nkx-2.5. Deletion and mutational analyses of the ANP promoter revealed that the Csx/Nkx-2.5-bindi...
متن کاملGATA factor transgenes under GATA-1 locus control rescue germline GATA-1 mutant deficiencies.
GATA-1 germline mutation in mice results in embryonic lethality due to defective erythroid cell maturation, and thus other hematopoietic GATA factors do not compensate for the loss of GATA-1. To determine whether the obligate presence of GATA-1 in erythroid cells is due to its distinct biochemical properties or spatiotemporal patterning, we attempted to rescue GATA-1 mutant mice with hematopoie...
