Abstract

Optimal steroid hormone biosynthesis occurs via the integration of multiple regulatory processes, one of which entails a coordinate increase in the transcription of all genes required for steroidogenesis. In the human adrenal cortex adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) activates a signaling cascade that promotes the dynamic assembly of protein complexes on the promoters of steroidogenic genes. For CYP17, multiple transcription factors, including steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1), GATA-6, and sterol regulatory binding protein 1 (SREBP1), are recruited to the promoter during activated transcription. The ability of these factors to increase CYP17 mRNA expression requires the formation of higher order coregulatory complexes, many of which contain enzymatic activities that post-translationally modify both the transcription factors and histones. We discuss the mechanisms by which transcription factors and coregulatory proteins regulate CYP17 transcription and summarize the role of kinases, phosphatases, acetyltransferases, and histone deacetylases in controlling CYP17 mRNA expression.

  • Adrenal expression of human CYP17A1 requires the transcription factors SF1, SP1, SP3, CTF2, CTF5, GATA4 and GATA6.

    “Adrenal expression of human CYP17A1 requires the transcription factors SF1, SP1, SP3, CTF2, CTF5, GATA4 and GATA6 (250 -255).”

    From The Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, and Physiology of Human Steroidogenesis and Its Disorders (2011) · cites this paper as [255]

    Sections 3.1–3.3 describe SF-1, Sp1, Sp3, GATA-4 and GATA-6 as regulators of human CYP17 transcription in the adrenal context. The GATA section says GATA-4 or GATA-6 can form a complex with Sp1, rather than establishing that both are required. The copy does not identify CTF2 or CTF5 as required factors, so it does not support the full list as a requirement for adrenal expression. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
