Parkin differently regulates presenilin-1 and presenilin-2 functions by direct control of their promoter transcription
28 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
We previously established that besides its canonical function as E3-ubiquitin ligase, parkin also behaves as a transcriptional repressor of p53. Here we show that parkin differently modulates presenilin-1 and presenilin-2 expression and functions at transcriptional level. Thus, parkin enhances/reduces the protein expression, promoter activity and mRNA levels of presenilin-1 and presenilin-2, respectively, in...
