Developmental regulation and tissue distribution of the liver transcription factor LFB1 (HNF1) in Xenopus laevis.

Abstract:

:The transcription factor LFB1 (HNF1) was initially identified as a regulator of liver-specific gene expression in mammals. It interacts with the promoter element HP1, which is functionally conserved between mammals and amphibians, suggesting that a homologous factor, XLFB1, also exists in Xenopus laevis. To study the role of LFB1 in early development, we isolated two groups of cDNAs coding for this factor from a Xenopus liver cDNA library by using a rat LFB1 cDNA probe. A comparison of the primary structures of the Xenopus and mammalian proteins shows that the myosin-like dimerization helix, the POU-A-related domain, the homeo-domain-related region, and the serine/threonine-rich activation domain are conserved between X. laevis and mammals, suggesting that all these features typical for LFB1 are essential for function. Using monoclonal antibodies, we demonstrate that XLFB1 is present not only in the liver but also in the stomach, intestine, colon, and kidney. In an analysis of the expression of XLFB1 in the developing Xenopus embryo, XLFB1 transcripts appear at the gastrula stage. The XLFB1 protein can be identified in regions of the embryo in which the liver diverticulum, stomach, gut, and pronephros are localized. The early appearance of XLFB1 expression during embryogenesis suggests that the tissue-specific transcription factor XLFB1 is involved in the determination and/or differentiation of specific cell types during organogenesis.
