Chemical compound and disease context of HLTF

 

Biological context of HLTF

  • Two Sp1 sites that are also conserved in the putative promoter of human SMARCA3 and a RUSH binding site (-616/-611) that is unique to the rabbit promoter repress basal transcription [5].
  • HLTF gene silencing in human colon cancer [1].
  • Mutations affecting either the Sp1/Sp3 or the two HLTF sites inhibited by 6- and 2.5-fold, respectively, transient expression in HeLa cells of a reporter gene fused to the PAI-1 promoter [6].
  • Here we report the characterization of the Zbu1 gene, also known as HIP116, located on human chromosome band 3q25, which encodes a DNA-binding member of this superfamily [7].
  • The developmental profile of Zbu1 gene expression and the association of the protein with a tissue-specific transcriptional regulatory element distinguish it from other members of the SWI2/SNF2 family and suggest novel roles for the Zbu1 gene product [7].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of HLTF

  • Electrophoretic mobility shift assays performed on a set of B box point mutants demonstrated two HLTF sites flanking and partially overlapping with a GT box binding Sp1 and Sp3 [6].
  • Expression of HLTF was examined by reverse-transcription (RT)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and promoter hypermethylation in HLTF was determined by methylation-specific PCR [3].
  • Sequence analysis indicates that the P113 is highly homologous to HIP116/HLTF (human) and RUSH-1alpha (rabbit) [12].
  • HLTF expression was conserved in the HKT-1097 cell line established from kidney tumors, but again only 10% of positive cells were found in xenografts produced by HKT-1097 cells in nude mice [11].
