Orphan nuclear receptor SHP interacts with and represses hepatocyte nuclear factor-6 (HNF-6) transactivation.
SHP (small heterodimer partner; NR0B2) is an atypical orphan NR (nuclear receptor) that functions as a transcriptional co-repressor by interacting with a diverse set of NRs and transcriptional factors. HNF-6 (hepatocyte nuclear factor-6) is a key regulatory factor in pancreatic development, endocrine differentiation and the formation of the biliary tract, as well as glucose metabolism. In this ...
متن کاملType-I protein-C deficiency caused by disruption of a hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-6/HNF-1 binding site in the human protein-C gene promoter.
The level and tissue specificity of eukaryotic gene transcription is determined by the binding of specific transcription factors to DNA sequence elements located around the transcription start site. The availability and activity of specific transcription factors depends on a variety of developmental and environmental cues and, therefore, varies from cell type to cell type. For instance, liver t...
متن کاملDevelopmental lung expression and transcriptional regulation of Claudin-6 by TTF-1, Gata-6, and FoxA2
BACKGROUND Claudins are transmembrane proteins expressed in tight junctions that prevent paracellular transport of extracellular fluid and a variety of other substances. However, the expression profile of Claudin-6 (Cldn6) in the developing lung has not been characterized. METHODS AND RESULTS Cldn6 expression was determined during important periods of lung organogenesis by microarray analysis...
متن کاملAntiglucocorticoid activity of hepatocyte nuclear factor-6.
Glucocorticoids exert their effects on gene transcription through ubiquitous receptors that bind to regulatory sequences present in many genes. These glucocorticoid receptors are present in all cell types, yet glucocorticoid action is controlled in a tissue-specific way. One mechanism for this control relies on tissue-specific transcriptional activators that bind in the vicinity of the glucocor...
متن کاملHepatocyte nuclear factor 3beta (Foxa2) is dispensable for maintaining the differentiated state of the adult hepatocyte.
Liver-specific gene expression is controlled by a heterogeneous group of hepatocyte-enriched transcription factors. One of these, the winged helix transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear factor 3beta (HNF3beta or Foxa2) is essential for multiple stages of embryonic development. Recently, HNF3beta has been shown to be an important regulator of other hepatocyte-enriched transcription factors as w...
