Keeping a good pathway down: transcriptional repression of Notch pathway target genes by CSL proteins.
CSL [CBF-1, Su(H), Lag-1]-type transcription factors are the primary effectors of the Notch pathway, a signal transduction cascade that is essential for the development of all metazoan organisms. Interestingly, CSL proteins were originally classified as transcriptional repressors in vertebrates, but as transcriptional activators in model invertebrate organisms. Resolution of this paradox came w...
متن کاملRepression of Ccr9 transcription in mouse T lymphocyte progenitors by the Notch signaling pathway.
The chemokine receptor CCR9 controls the immigration of multipotent hematopoietic progenitor cells into the thymus to sustain T cell development. Postimmigration, thymocytes downregulate CCR9 and migrate toward the subcapsular zone where they recombine their TCR β-chain and γ-chain gene loci. CCR9 is subsequently upregulated and participates in the localization of thymocytes during their select...
متن کاملThe transcription factor NRSF contributes to epileptogenesis by selective repression of a subset of target genes
The mechanisms generating epileptic neuronal networks following insults such as severe seizures are unknown. We have previously shown that interfering with the function of the neuron-restrictive silencer factor (NRSF/REST), an important transcription factor that influences neuronal phenotype, attenuated development of this disorder. In this study, we found that epilepsy-provoking seizures incre...
متن کاملGlucose repression of transcription of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe fbp1 gene occurs by a cAMP signaling pathway.
Transcription of the fbp1 gene, encoding fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, of Schizosaccharomyces pombe is subject to glucose repression. Previous work has demonstrated that several genes (git genes) are required for this repression. In this report we demonstrate that one of these genes, git2, is the same as the cyr1 gene, which encodes adenylate cyclase, and that loss-of-function mutations in git2 ...
متن کاملThe Notch pathway: a novel target for myocardial remodelling therapy?
Pathological ventricle remodelling, which follows a cardiac insult, causes heart failure. Despite the existence of multiple pharmaceutical approaches, heart failure is one of the leading causes of death worldwide and there is an urgent need to explore new therapeutic avenues. The Notch pathway is an evolutionary conserved fundamental pathway that regulates cell fate during development as well a...
