Role of Helicase-Like Transcription Factor (Hltf) in the G2/M Transition and Apoptosis in Brain
HLTF participates in transcription, chromatin remodeling, DNA damage repair, and tumor suppression. Aside from being expressed in mouse brain during embryonic and postnatal development, little is known about Hltf's functional importance. Splice variant quantification of wild-type neonatal (6-8 hour postpartum) brain gave a ratio of 5:1 for Hltf isoform 1 (exons 1-25) to isoform 2 (exons 1-21 wi...
متن کاملHelicase-Like Transcription Factor (Hltf) Regulates G2/M Transition, Wt1/Gata4/Hif-1a Cardiac Transcription Networks, and Collagen Biogenesis
HLTF/Hltf regulates transcription, remodels chromatin, and coordinates DNA damage repair. Hltf is expressed in mouse brain and heart during embryonic and postnatal development. Silencing Hltf is semilethal. Seventy-four percent of congenic C57BL/6J Hltf knockout mice died, 75% within 12-24 hours of birth. Previous studies in neonatal (6-8 hour postpartum) brain revealed silencing Hltf disrupted...
متن کاملPrp43: An RNA helicase-like factor involved in spliceosome disassembly.
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes PRP2, PRP16, and PRP22 encode pre-mRNA splicing factors that belong to the highly conserved "DEAH" family of putative RNA helicases. We previously identified two additional members of this family, JA1 and JA2. To investigate its biological function, we cloned the JA1 gene and generated alleles carrying mutations identical to those found in highly conserved reg...
متن کاملHuman HLTF functions as a ubiquitin ligase for proliferating cell nuclear antigen polyubiquitination.
Human helicase-like transcription factor (HLTF) is frequently inactivated in colorectal and gastric cancers. Here, we show that HLTF is a functional homologue of yeast Rad5 that promotes error-free replication through DNA lesions. HLTF and Rad5 share the same unique structural features, including a RING domain embedded within a SWI/SNF helicase domain and an HIRAN domain. We find that inactivat...
متن کاملCLOCK:BMAL1 is a pioneer-like transcription factor.
The mammalian circadian clock relies on the master genes CLOCK and BMAL1 to drive rhythmic gene expression and regulate biological functions under circadian control. Here we show that rhythmic CLOCK:BMAL1 DNA binding promotes rhythmic chromatin opening. Mechanisms include CLOCK:BMAL1 binding to nucleosomes and rhythmic chromatin modification; e.g., incorporation of the histone variant H2A.Z. Th...
