Abstract
The GATA-1–interacting protein Friend Of GATA-1 (FOG-1) is essential for the proper transcriptional activation and repression of numerous GATA-1 target genes. Although FOG-1–independent activation by GATA-1 has been described, all known examples of GATA-1–mediated repression are FOG-1 dependent. In the GATA-1–null G1E cell line, estrogen receptor ligand binding domain (ER) chimeras of either wild-type GATA-1 or a FOG-1–binding defective mutant of GATA-1 repressed several genes similarly upon activation with β-estradiol. Repression also occurred in a FOG-1–null cell line expressing ER–GATA-1 and during ex vivo erythropoiesis. At the Lyl1 and Rgs18 loci, we found highly restricted occupancy by GATA-1 and GATA-2, indicating that these genes are direct targets of GATA factor regulation. The identification of genes repressed by GATA-1 independent of FOG-1 defines a novel mode of GATA-1–mediated transcriptional regulation.Keywords
