Nuclear localization domain of thyroid transcription factor-1 in respiratory epithelial cells.
Thyroid transcription factor-1 (TITF-1) is a homeodomain containing transcription factor that binds to and selectively activates the expression of genes in thyroid and pulmonary epithelial cells. TITF-1 plays a critical role in gene expression and in organogenesis of lung and thyroid. In the present work, epitope-tagged TITF-1 proteins were used to identify the regions of the TITF-1 polypeptide...
متن کاملCharacterization of Nuclear Localization and SUMOylation of the ATBF1 Transcription Factor in Epithelial Cells
ATBF1/ZFHX3 is a large transcription factor that functions in development, tumorigenesis and other biological processes. ATBF1 is normally localized in the nucleus, but is often mislocalized in the cytoplasm in cancer cells. The mechanism underlying the mislocalization of ATBF1 is unknown. In this study, we analyzed the nuclear localization of ATBF1, and found that ectopically expressed ATBF1 f...
متن کاملNuclear factor of activated T cells regulates transcription of the surfactant protein D gene (Sftpd) via direct interaction with thyroid transcription factor-1 in lung epithelial cells.
Surfactant protein D (SP-D) plays critical roles in host defense, surfactant homeostasis, and pulmonary immunomodulation. Here, we identify a role of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFATs) in regulation of murine SP-D gene (Sftpd) transcription. An NFAT-dependent enhancer modulated by NFATs or calcineurin and sensitive to cyclosporin was identified in the Sftpd promoter. Ionomycin and phor...
متن کاملNuclear factor I/thyroid transcription factor 1 interactions modulate surfactant protein C transcription.
Surfactant protein C (SP-C; Sftpc) gene expression is restricted to pulmonary type II epithelial cells. The proximal SP-C promoter region contains critical binding sites for nuclear factor I (NFI) and thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1; also called Nkx2.1). To test the hypothesis that NFI isoforms interact with TTF-1 to differentially regulate SP-C transcription, we performed transient trans...
