The pan-Pituitary Activator of Transcription, Ptx1 (Pituitary Homeobox 1), Acts in Synergy with SF-1 and Pit1 and Is an Upstream Regulator of the Lim-Homeodomain Gene Lim3/Lhx3

1998-03-01

Abstract excerpt

The Ptx1 (pituitary homeobox 1) homeobox transcription factor was isolated as a transcription factor of the pituitary POMC gene. In corticotrope cells that express POMC, cell-specific transcription is conferred in part by the synergistic action of Ptx1 with the basic helix-loop-helix factor NeuroD1. Since Ptx1 expression precedes pituitary development and differentiation, we investigated its expression and functio...
