The ZFHX1A gene is differentially autoregulated by its isoforms.

Abstract:

:The Zfhx1a gene expresses two different isoforms; the full length Zfhx1a-1 and a truncated isoform termed Zfhx1a-2 lacking the first exon. Deletion analysis of the Zfhx1a-1 promoter localized cell-specific repressors, and a proximal G-string that is critically required for transactivation. Transfection of Zfhx1a-1 cDNA, but not Zfhx1a-2, downregulates Zfhx1a-1 promoter activity. Mutation of an E2-box disrupted the binding of both Zfhx1a isoforms. Consistent with this, transfected Zfhx1a-1 does not regulate the transcriptional activity of the E-box mutated Zfhx1a-1 promoter. Competitive EMSAs and transfection assays show that Zfhx1a-2 can function as a dominant negative isoform since it is able to compete and displace Zfhx1a-1 from its binding site and overcome Zfhx1a-1 induced repression of the Zfhx1a-1 promoter in cells. Hence, the Zfhx1a-1 gene is autoregulated in part by negative feedback on its own promoter which is, in turn, modified by the availability of the negative dominant isoform Zfhx1a-2.

  • SUMO1 attenuates stress-induced ROS generation by inhibiting NADPH oxidase 2.

    abstract::Small ubiquitin-like modifier 1 (SUMO1) is a member of the superfamily of ubiquitin-like proteins. Despite its structural similarity with ubiquitin, SUMO1 does not seem to play any role in protein degradation and its precise biological function is poorly understood.
