Physical and Functional Interaction between GATA-3 and Smad3 Allows TGF-β Regulation of GATA Target Genes
BACKGROUND Members of the GATA family of zinc finger transcription factors are genetically controlled "master" regulators of development in the hematopoietic and nervous systems. Whether GATA factors also serve to integrate epigenetic signals on target promoters is, however, unknown. The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily is a large group of phylogenetically conserved secret...
متن کاملLAT-derived microRNAs in HSV-1 target SMAD3 and SMAD4 in TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway
Background: During its latent infection, HSV-1 produces only a miRNA precursor called LAT, which encodes six distinct miRNAs. Recent studies have suggested that some of these miRNAs could target cellular mRNAs. One of the key cell signaling pathways that can be affected by HSV-1 is the TGF-β/Smad pathway. Herein, we investigated the potential role of the LAT as well as three LAT-derived miRNAs ...
متن کاملFunctional regulation of GATA-2 by acetylation.
The transcription factor GATA-2 is expressed in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells and is functionally implicated in their survival and proliferation. In the present study, we show that GATA-2 exists as an acetylated protein in immature precursor cells, KG1. GATA-2 was acetylated in vitro by p300 and GCN5. We have identified multiple acetylation sites by p300 on GATA-2, which include sites...
متن کاملCooperative interaction between GATA-4 and GATA-6 regulates myocardial gene expression.
Two members of the GATA family of transcription factors, GATA-4 and GATA-6, are expressed in the developing and postnatal myocardium and are equally potent transactivators of several cardiac promoters. However, several in vitro and in vivo lines of evidence suggest distinct roles for the two factors in the heart. Since identification of the endogenous downstream targets of GATA factors would gr...
متن کاملExpression and hormonal regulation of transcription factors GATA-4 and GATA-6 in the mouse ovary.
Two members of the GATA-binding family of transcription factors, GATA-4 and GATA-6, are expressed in the vertebrate ovary. To gain insight into the role of these factors in ovarian cell differentiation and function, we used in situ hybridization to determine the patterns of expression of GATA-4 and GATA-6 in mouse ovary during development and in response to hormonal stimulation. GATA-4 messenge...
