Transforming Growth Factor-β Regulates DNA Binding Activity of Transcription Factor Fli1 by p300/CREB-binding Protein-associated Factor-dependent Acetylation
21 Sept 2007
Abstract excerpt
Fli1, a member of Ets transcriptional factors, has been shown to be a negative regulator of collagen gene expression in dermal fibroblasts. Although Fli1 down-regulation is implicated in pathological matrix remodeling such as cutaneous fibrosis in scleroderma, very little is known about the post-translational mechanisms regulating Fli1 function. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of acetylation,...
