Technical
The following transcription factors affect gene expression:
Tissue specificity:
Detected in all tissues tested: skeletal muscle, heart, aorta, large intestine, small intestine, stomach, esophagus, bladder, adrenal gland, thyroid, pancreas, testis, adipose tissue, kidney, liver, spleen, cerebral cortex, blood serum and cerebrospinal fluid. Highest levels are found in the heart and in tissues composed of striated and smooth muscle.
Gene Pathways:
Induction:
Expressed in response to environmental stresses such as heat shock, or estrogen stimulation in MCF-7 cells. Up-regulated in response to enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection (at protein level).
