Identification of a Functional Nuclear Localization Signal Mediating Nuclear Import of the Zinc Finger Transcription Factor ZNF24
ZNF24 is a member of the SCAN domain family of Krüppel-like zinc finger (ZF) transcription factors, which plays a critical role in cell proliferation and differentiation. However, how ZNF24 enters the nucleus in order to exert its function remains unclear since its nuclear localization signal(s) (NLS) has not been identified. Here, we generated a series of GFP-tagged deletion and point mutants ...
متن کاملSenseless, a Zn Finger Transcription Factor, Is Necessary and Sufficient for Sensory Organ Development in Drosophila
The senseless (sens) gene is required for proper development of most cell types of the embryonic and adult peripheral nervous system (PNS) of Drosophila. Sens is a nuclear protein with four Zn fingers that is expressed and required in the sensory organ precursors (SOP) for proper proneural gene expression. Ectopic expression of Sens in many ectodermal cells causes induction of PNS external sens...
متن کاملzag-1, a Zn-finger homeodomain transcription factor controlling neuronal differentiation and axon outgrowth in C. elegans.
The nervous system consists of diverse subtypes of neurons, whose identities must be specified during development. One important aspect of the differentiation program of neurons is the expression of the appropriate set of genes controlling axon pathway selection. We have identified a novel Znfinger/homeodomain containing transcription factor, zag-1, required for particular aspects of axonal pat...
متن کاملNerfin-1 and -2, novel Drosophila Zn-finger transcription factor genes expressed in the developing nervous system
To gain insight into the regulatory networks controlling Drosophila neural-identity decisions, we have identified new neuronal precursor genes by performing an in situ hybridization screen of differentially selected embryonic head cDNAs. Here, we describe the molecular characteristics and expression profile of nerfin-1, a novel pan-neural precursor gene. This paper also documents the embryonic ...
متن کاملNuclear localization of β-catenin by interaction with transcription factor LEF-1
Vertebrate/3-catenin and Drosophila Armadillo share structural similarities suggesting that fl-catenin, like Armadillo, has a developmental signaling function. Both proteins are present as components of cell adherens junctions, but accumulate in the cytoplasm upon Wingless/Wnt signaling, fl-Catenin has axis-inducing properties like Wnt when injected into Xenopus blastomeres, providing evidence ...
