P53 independent TAF6delta target genes.


ABSTRACT: To elucidate the impact of TAF6d on cell death and gene expression, here we have employed modified antisense oligonucleotides to enforce expression of endogenous TAF6d. The induction of endogenous TAF6d triggered apoptosis in tumor cell lines, including cells devoid of p53. Microarray experiments revealed that TAF6d activates gene expression independently of cellular p53 status. Our data define TAF6d as a pivotal node in a signaling pathway that acts immediately downstream of p53 to control gene expression programmes and apoptosis. Keywords: Treatment with splice site switching antisense oligonucleotides, induction of apoptosis Biological triplicates, 4 conditions: isogenic p53+/+ and -/- cells; control oligonucleotide, TAF6 AS2 oligonucleotide

<h4>Background</h4>Life and death decisions of metazoan cells hinge on the balance between the expression of pro- versus anti-apoptotic gene products. The general RNA polymerase II transcription factor, TFIID, plays a central role in the regulation of gene expression through its core promoter recognition and co-activator functions. The core TFIID subunit TAF6 acts in vitro as an essential co-activator of transcription for the p53 tumor suppressor protein. We previously identified a splice varian  ...[more]
