Modelling transcriptional feedback loops: the role of Gro/TLE1 in Hes1 oscillations.

The transcriptional repressor Hes1, a basic helix-loop-helix family protein, periodically changes its expression in the presomitic mesoderm. Its periodic pattern of expression is retained in a number of cultured murine cell lines. In this paper, we introduce an extended mathematical model for Hes1 oscillatory expression that includes regulation of Hes1 transcription by Drosophila Groucho (Gro) ...

Cofactor-Activated Phosphorylation Is Required for Inhibition of Cortical Neuron Differentiation by Groucho/TLE1

BACKGROUND Transcriptional co-repressors of the Groucho/transducin-like Enhancer of split (Gro/TLE) family regulate the expression of a variety of genes and are involved in numerous developmental processes in both invertebrate and vertebrate species. More specifically, Gro/TLE1 participates in mechanisms that inhibit/delay the differentiation of cerebral cortex neural progenitor cells into neur...

Intracellular delay limits cyclic changes in gene expression.

Based on previously published experimental observations and mathematical models for Hes1, p53 and NF-kappaB gene expression, we improve these models through a distributed delay formulation of the time lag between transcription factor binding and mRNA production. This description of natural variability for delays introduces a transition from a stable steady state to limit cycle oscillations and ...

Inhibition of cortical neuron differentiation by Groucho/TLE1 requires interaction with WRPW, but not Eh1, repressor peptides.

In both invertebrates and vertebrates, transcriptional co-repressors of the Groucho/transducin-like Enhancer of split (Gro/TLE) family regulate a number of developmental mechanisms, including neuronal differentiation. The pleiotropic activity of Gro/TLE depends on context-specific interactions with a variety of DNA-binding proteins. Most of those factors engage Gro/TLE through two different typ...

Transcriptional repression by AML1 and LEF-1 is mediated by the TLE/Groucho corepressors.

The mammalian AML/CBFalpha runt domain (RD) transcription factors regulate hematopoiesis and osteoblast differentiation. Like their Drosophila counterparts, most mammalian RD proteins terminate in a common pentapeptide, VWRPY, which serves to recruit the corepressor Groucho (Gro). Using a yeast two-hybrid assay, in vitro association and pull-down experiments, we demonstrate that Gro and its mam...
