HOXB13 inhibits lipid metabolism through HDAC3-mediated epigenetic reprogramming [ChIP-Seq]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: HOXB13 is a homeodomain transcription factor with prostate-specific expression. It is essential for normal prostate epithelium differentiation during development and functions as a key regulator of androgen-dependent cell growth in adult and cancerous prostate. Previous studies have demonstrated that HOXB13 is a pioneer factor of the androgen receptor (AR) and also a critical cofactor of AR variant v7 in castration-resistant prostate cancer (PCa). However, the intrinsic function of HOXB13 as a DNA-binding protein in an AR-independent context has not been elucidated. Here, our data reveal HOXB13, but not G84E mutant, recruits HDAC3 to specific genomic regions to catalyze histone de-acetylation and chromatin remodeling. We demonstrate a predominant function of HOXB13 in transcriptional repression of lipogenic genes requiring HDAC3.
