RPF-1 transcription factor coordinates expression of developmental genes in inducible HEK293/RPF-1 stable transfectants
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: RPF-1, a transcription factors encoded by POU6F2 gene, appears to be expressed in the developing nervous system and embryonic kidney. We generated a stable HEK/RPF-1 transfectant expressing the protein in a tetracycline (Tet)-dependent induction and addressed the whole transcriptome regulated by RPF-1. We detected a gross alteration of gene expression that is consistent with its occupancy at proximal promoters, and gel retardation assay and promoter-reporter activity, addressing a few target genes, indicated a dependence by RPF-1 of transcriptional response. GO analysis supports a role for this factor in the genetic programs guiding early differentiation of embryonic kidney and neuronal fate.

Gene array analysis shows that RPF-1 transcription factor modify the transcriptome of HEK293 cells by regulating a genetic program endowed with developmental programs
