Abstract

Activation of muscle gene transcription in differentiating skeletal myoblasts requires their withdrawal from the cell cycle. The effects of ectopic cyclin expression on activation of muscle gene transcription by myogenic basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) regulators were investigated. Ectopic expression of cyclin D1, but not cyclins A, B1, B2, C, D3, and E, inhibited transcriptional activation of muscle gene reporter constructs by myogenic bHLH regulators in a dose-dependent manner. Ectopic expression of cyclin D1 inhibited the activity of a myogenic bHLH regulator mutant lacking the basic region protein kinase C site, indicating that phosphorylation of this site is not relevant to the mechanism of inhibition. Analysis of cyclin D1 mutants revealed that the C-terminal acidic region was required for inhibition of myogenic bHLH regulator activity, whereas an intact N-terminal pRb binding motif was not essential. Together, these results implicate expression of cyclin D1 as a central determinant of a putatively novel mechanism that links positive control of cell cycle progression to negative regulation of genes expressed in differentiated myocytes.

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.
