Id proteins Id1 and Id2 selectively inhibit DNA binding by one class of helix-loop-helix proteins.
The DNA binding activities of some basic region and putative helix-loop-helix (bHLH)-containing transcriptional factors can be inhibited by the Id protein. Because Id contains the HLH motif for dimerization but not the basic amino acid region for DNA binding, heterodimers of Id with bHLH transcriptional factors may not bind to DNA. We have isolated and characterized the gene and cDNA clones for...
متن کاملImmortalization of primary human keratinocytes by the helix-loop-helix protein, Id-1.
Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) DNA-binding proteins have been demonstrated to regulate tissue-specific transcription within multiple cell lineages. The Id family of helix-loop-helix proteins does not possess a basic DNA-binding domain and functions as a negative regulator of bHLH proteins. Overexpression of Id proteins within a variety of cell types has been shown to inhibit their ability to dif...
متن کاملEarly growth response gene2 negatively modulates osteoclast differentiation by up-regulating Id helix-loop-helix proteins
INTRODUCTION Osteoclasts are derived from hematopoietic precursors in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL). Binding of RANKL to its receptor RANK activates NF-κB, c-fos, and NFATc1, all of which are essential for osteoclastogenesis. The inhibitor of differentiation/DNA binding (Id), helix-loop-helix (HLH) proteins act as dom...
متن کاملAn Id-related helix-loop-helix protein encoded by a growth factor-inducible gene.
An mRNA encoding a helix-loop-helix protein that we have named HLH462 is induced in mouse 3T3 cells as part of the immediate early transcriptional response to growth factors and other signaling agents. The RNA is present in a number of mouse tissues and in the developing mouse fetus. The HLH462 gene has been mapped by interspecific backcross analysis to the distal region of mouse chromosome 4. ...
متن کاملId transcriptional regulators in adipogenesis and adipose tissue metabolism.
Id proteins (Id1-Id4) are helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcriptional regulators that lack a basic DNA binding domain. They act as negative regulators of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors by forming heterodimers and inhibit their DNA binding and transcriptional activity. Id proteins are implicated in the regulation of various cellular mechanisms such as cell proliferation, cellular...
