Abstract

Wnt signaling is thought to be mediated via interactions between beta-catenin and members of the LEF-1/TCF family of transcription factors. Here we study the mechanism of transcriptional regulation by LEF-1 in response to a Wnt-1 signal under conditions of endogenous beta-catenin in NIH 3T3 cells, and we examine whether association with beta-catenin is obligatory for the function of LEF-1. We find that Wnt-1 signaling confers transcriptional activation potential upon LEF-1 by association with beta-catenin in the nucleus. By mutagenesis, we identified specific residues in LEF-1 important for interaction with beta-catenin, and we delineated two transcriptional activation domains in beta-catenin whose function is augmented in specific association with LEF-1. Finally, we show that a Wnt-1 signal and beta-catenin association are not required for the architectural function of LEF-1 in the regulation of the T-cell receptor alpha enhancer, which involves association of LEF-1 with a different cofactor, ALY. Thus, LEF-1 can assume diverse regulatory functions by association with different proteins.

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.
