Direct regulation of nacre, a zebrafish MITF homolog required for pigment cell formation, by the Wnt pathway.

Abstract:

:We have shown that Wnt signals are necessary and sufficient for neural crest cells to adopt pigment cell fates. nacre, a zebrafish homolog of MITF, is required for pigment cell differentiation. We isolated a promoter region of nacre that contains Tcf/Lef binding sites, which can mediate Wnt responsiveness. This promoter binds to zebrafish Lef1 protein in vitro, and a nacre reporter construct is strongly repressed by dominant-negative Tcf in melanoma cells. Mutation of Tcf/Lef sites abolishes Lef1 binding and reporter function in vivo. Wnt signaling therefore directly activates nacre, which in turn leads to pigment cell differentiation.

  • A physiological role for gene loops in yeast.

    abstract::DNA loops that juxtapose the promoter and terminator regions of RNA polymerase II-transcribed genes have been identified in yeast and mammalian cells. Loop formation is transcription-dependent and requires components of the pre-mRNA 3'-end processing machinery. Here we report that looping at the yeast GAL10 gene persi...
