A nuclear extract of the mouse I-10 Leydig tumor cell line was analyzed by gel mobility shift assay with a combination of antibodies for various mammalian GATA proteins. Antibodies for GATA-4 caused a super-shift of the DNA-protein complex, which is formed through GATA-4 binding to an oligonucleotide with a typical GATA motif, while ones for GATA-1, GATA-2, GATA-3, and GATA-6 did not. These results indicated that I-10 cells express GATA-4 protein. Western blotting analysis of cellular proteins also demonstrated the presence of GATA-4 protein, the size of which corresponds to that of the rat orthologous protein transiently expressed in Cos-1 cells. A significant level of GATA-4 expression in I-10 cells would be advantageous for studying the roles of this protein, especially in view of gonadal function. We further examined the binding site preference of GATA-4 expressed in I-10 cells. GATA-4 showed broad sequence specificity similar to GATA-6, the order of binding core site preference being GATA > GATT > GATC, and adenine was favored on both sides of the core for strong binding. Thus the conserved zinc finger domain of GATA proteins is suggested to contribute to the binding sequence preference. GATA-4 expressed in I-10 cells was not susceptible to proteolysis coupled with cAMP signaling.  相似文献

The ability of the GATA family of factors to interact with numerous other factors, co-factors, and repressors suggests that they may play key roles in tissues and cells where they are expressed. Adult mouse small intestine has been shown to express GATA-4, GATA-5, and GATA-6, where they have been implicated in the activation of a number of intestinal genes. Determination of which GATA factor(s) are involved in a specific function in tissues expressing multiple family members has proven difficult. The immunohistochemical analysis presented here demonstrate that within the mouse small intestine GATA-4/-5/-6 are found to be uniquely distributed among the various differentiated lineages of the intestinal epithelium. Among differentiated cells GATA-4 is found only in the villous enterocytes. GATA-5 is absent from enterocytes, but was found in the remaining lineages: goblet, Paneth and enteroendocrine. Additionally, high levels of GATA-6 are found in only one of these differentiated cell types, the enteroendocrine lineage. The observed distribution suggests that the GATA factors may have distinct roles in lineage allocation, lineage maintenance, and/or terminal differentiation events in small intestine.  相似文献
