Nuclear Factor YY1 Inhibits Transforming Growth Factor β- and Bone Morphogenetic Protein-Induced Cell Differentiation
13 Jun 2003
Abstract excerpt
Smad proteins transduce transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signals that regulate cell growth and differentiation. We have identified YY1, a transcription factor that positively or negatively regulates transcription of many genes, as a novel Smad-interacting protein. YY1 represses the induction of immediate-early genes to TGF-beta and BMP, such as the plasminogen...
