1 20811152 Here, we show that Pcif1 targets Pdx1 for ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation.
2 20811152 These findings indicate that in adult mouse ? cells, Pcif1 limits Pdx1 protein accumulation and thus the expression of insulin and other gene targets important in the maintenance of ? cell mass and function.
3 15121856 Functionally, PCIF1 inhibits PDX-1 transactivation of established target gene promoters in a specific and dose-dependent manner that requires critical amino acids in the PDX-1 C terminus.
4 15121856 PCIF1 is expressed in adult pancreatic insulin-producing beta cells, and overexpression of PCIF1 inhibits the rat insulin 1 and rat insulin 2 promoters in the MIN6 insulinoma beta cell line.
5 17126328 PCIF1 is a TRAF and POZ domain containing nuclear factor that interacts with and inhibits transactivation of pancreatic homeodomain transcription factor PDX-1.
6 17126328 Within PCIF1, the TRAF and POZ domains are both required for physical and functional interaction with the C-terminus of PDX-1, whereas the C-terminal domain of PCIF1 directs its nuclear localization.
7 17126328 Understanding the functional roles of PCIF1 domains may have application to therapeutic beta-cell replacement strategies involving PDX-1 for the treatment of diabetes.
