FOXL2 Interacts with Steroidogenic Factor-1 (SF-1) and Represses SF-1-Induced CYP17 Transcription in Granulosa Cells
6 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in FOXL2 are responsible for blepharophimosis-ptosis-epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES) type I, in which affected women exhibit premature ovarian failure. FOXL2-null mice showed defects in granulosa cell development during folliculogenesis. We screened a rat ovarian yeast two-hybrid cDNA library to identify FOXL2-interacting proteins and found steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1). Here, we show that human...
