GATA-1 directly regulates p21 gene expression during erythroid differentiation.
Lineage-determination transcription factors coordinate cell differentiation and proliferation by controlling the synthesis of lineage-specific gene products as well as cell cycle regulators. GATA-1 is a master regulator of erythropoiesis. Its role in regulating erythroid-specific genes has been extensively studied, whereas its role in controlling genes that regulate cell proliferation is less u...
متن کاملIntron 1 GATA site enhances ALAS2 expression indispensably during erythroid differentiation
The first intronic mutations in the intron 1 GATA site (int-1-GATA) of 5-aminolevulinate synthase 2 (ALAS2) have been identified in X-linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA) pedigrees, strongly suggesting it could be causal mutations of XLSA. However, the function of this int-1-GATA site during in vivo development remains largely unknown. Here, we generated mice lacking a 13 bp fragment, including t...
متن کاملGATA-1 and erythropoietin cooperate to promote erythroid cell survival by regulating bcl-xL expression.
The transcription factor GATA-1 is essential for normal erythropoiesis. By examining in vitro-differentiated embryonic stem cells, we showed previously that in the absence of GATA-1, committed erythroid precursors fail to complete maturation and instead undergo apoptosis. The mechanisms by which GATA-1 controls cell survival are unknown. Here we report that in erythroid cells, GATA-1 strongly i...
متن کاملGATA-1 transactivates erythropoietin receptor gene, and erythropoietin receptor-mediated signals enhance GATA-1 gene expression.
Erythropoietin is a cytokine which specifically regulates the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells. The expression of erythropoietin receptor on the cell membrane of the progenitor cells is a critical event during the erythroid differentiation process. In order to clarify the tissue-specific and differentiation stage-specific expression of the erythropoietin receptor ...
متن کاملPU.1 inhibits GATA-1 function and erythroid differentiation by blocking GATA-1 DNA binding.
The lineage-specific transcription factors GATA-1 and PU.1 can physically interact to inhibit each other's function, but the mechanism of repression of GATA-1 function by PU.1 has not been elucidated. Both the N terminus and the C terminus of PU.1 can physically interact with the C-terminal zinc finger of GATA-1. It is demonstrated that the PU.1 N terminus, but not the C terminus, is required f...
