GATA-factor dependence of the multitype zinc-finger protein FOG-1 for its essential role in megakaryopoiesis

Abstract: The function of GATA transcription factors in diverse developmental contexts depends in part on physical interaction with cofactors of the Friend of GATA (FOG) family. However, previous studies indicate that FOG-1 may play a GATA-1-independent role in early megakaryopoiesis, suggesting that FOG proteins might act in a GATA factor-independent manner. Here, we have generated mouse knock-in (KI) mutants harboring a critical valine-to-glycine substitution in the amino-terminal zinc fingers of GATA-1 and GATA-2 to … Show more

“…Cooperation between GATA-1 and FOG-1 is required for normal erythropoiesis (Crispino et al, 1999), and within the megakaryocyte lineage FOG-1 acts with either GATA-1 or GATA-2 to direct differentiation of early precursors (Nichols et al, 2000;Chang et al, 2002;Cantor et al, 2002;Garriga-Canut and Orkin, 2004). FOG-1 is co-expressed with GATA-3 in naive T-cells and may repress T helper 2 cell development (Zhou et al, 2001).…”

“…In addition, this complex is required for erythrocyte and megakaryocyte differentiation (2)(3)(4). FOG-1 may also act with GATA-2 to initiate megakaryopoiesis (5). In general, FOG proteins bind the N-terminal zinc-finger of their respective GATA partners.…”

“…Differences in megakaryocyte differentiation between GATA-1-and FOG-1-deficient mice can be accounted for by overlapping functions of GATA-1 and GATA-2 as GATA-1/ GATA-2 double knock-in mice ablated for their interaction with FOG-1 phenocopy mice lacking FOG-1. Thus, at early stages, either GATA-1 or GATA-2 functions with FOG-1, whereas at later times megakaryocytic differentiation is dependent on GATA-1 and FOG-1 (13). Patients with a rare syndrome of congenital dyserythropoietic anemia and thrombocytopenia who exhibit hyperproliferation of abnormal megakaryocytes resembling GATA-1 Ϫ megakaryocytes harbor a point mutation in the GATA-1 gene that reduces its affinity for FOG-1 (14).…”
