Transcriptional coactivator p300/CBP- associated factor and p300/CBP-associated factor type B are required for normal estrogen response of the mouse uterus.

Mice with targeted gene disruption of one of the estrogen receptor coactivators, p300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF), and its counterpart, PCAF-B, were used to investigate the possible involvement of PCAF and PCAF-B in estrogen receptor-mediated actions in vivo. Among ovariectomized mice that were treated with estrogen, PCAF and PCAF/PCAF-B knockouts showed abnormal growth of the uterus compared with the wild type. The level of c-fos gene expression in the uterus was not induced by estrogen in the knockouts. These observations suggest that PCAF and PCAF-B are required for estrogen-dependent normal growth of the uterus via estrogen receptor-mediated transcriptional regulations.[1]
