DNA methylation of germ-cell-specific basic helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcription factors, Sohlh2 and Figlα during gametogenesis.
Regulation of germ-cell-specific transcription is essential for the differentiation and other physiological processes of germ cells. Germ-cell-specific transcription factors, Sohlh2 and Figla, play key roles in gametogenesis. To elucidate whether an epigenetic mechanism is involved in the controlled expression of Sohlh2 and Figlα, we examined the dynamics of DNA methylation at two gene loci. Re...
متن کاملBasic Helix-Loop-Helix Factors in Cortical Development
Transcription factors with bHLH motifs modulate critical events in the development of the mammalian neocortex. Multipotent cortical progenitors are maintained in a proliferative state by bHLH factors from the Id and Hes families. The transition from proliferation to neurogenesis involves a coordinate increase in the activity of proneural bHLH factors (Mash1, Neurogenin1, and Neurogenin2) and a ...
متن کاملThe Arabidopsis basic/helix-loop-helix transcription factor family.
The basic/helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins are a superfamily of transcription factors that bind as dimers to specific DNA target sites and that have been well characterized in nonplant eukaryotes as important regulatory components in diverse biological processes. Based on evidence that the bHLH protein PIF3 is a direct phytochrome reaction partner in the photoreceptor's signaling network, we ha...
متن کاملExpression of basic helix-loop-helix proteins in the glomeruli.
BACKGROUND Basic helix loop helix (bHLH) proteins play a critical role in the differentiation of not only striated muscle cells but also adipocytes, neuron cells and smooth muscle cells. Previous studies have established in vitro mouse mesangial cells (MCs) to maintain the differentiated smooth muscle phenotype. MATERIALS AND METHODS The purpose of the present study was to clone bHLH proteins...
متن کاملBasic helix-loop-helix genes in neural development.
Several major advances in the understanding of the regulation of vertebrate neurogenesis by members of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) protein family have been made in the past year. Specifically, a number of bHLH genes have been cloned and shown to convert non-neuronal fate to neuronal fate when expressed ectopically. In particular, studies on NeuroD and Neurogenin suggest a regulatory pathw...
