High impact information on EN1

  • Dorsoventral (DV) patterning of the vertebrate limb requires the function of the transcription factor Engrailed 1 (EN1) in the ventral ectoderm [1].
  • Cell lineage analysis of the expression of an engrailed homolog in leech embryos [2].
  • An HaeIII RFLP for the human homeo box-containing gene EN1 [3].
  • The RNA signal for both EN1 and EN2 was strongest in the cerebellar granule cell layers, white matter of the vermis and flocculus, inferior olive, arcuate nucleus, caudal raphe nuclei, corpus pontobulbare and nucleus ambiguus [4].
  • Deletions of 2q14 that include the homeobox engrailed 1 (EN1) transcription factor are compatible with a normal phenotype [5].
 

Biological context of EN1

 

Anatomical context of EN1

  • Here, we have refined the localization of EN1 to human chromosome 2q13-q21 using a mapping panel of rodent/human cell hybrids containing different regions of chromosome 2 and a lymphoblastoid cell line with an interstitial deletion, del(2)(q21-q23.2) [7].
 

Associations of EN1 with chemical compounds

  • Inhibition of co-translational transfer of N-linked oligosaccharides by tunicamycin produced EN1 and EN3 as intracellular species, and EN3 was sulfated and secreted [9].
  • The isocarbostyril nucleoside compound 1-(2-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-isocarbostyril (EN1) was a poor substrate with all the enzymes [10].
