Abstract excerpt
The Smads are a family of sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins that modulate transcription in response to transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) by recruiting transcriptional activators like the histone acetyltransferase, p300/CBP, or repressors like the histone deacetylase, HDAC1, to TGFbeta target genes. The association of Smads and HDAC1 is mediated in part by direct binding of Smads to the...
