• Fourth, cross-modal analysis provides compelling evidence for the transcriptomic, epigenomic and gene regulatory basis of neuronal phenotypes such as their physiological and anatomical properties, demonstrating the biological validity and genomic underpinning of neuron types. (nih.gov)
  • Here, we report that MEF2D is present in rodent neuronal mitochondria, where it can regulate the expression of a gene encoded within mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). (nih.gov)
  • Mbd2 binds regulatory DNA regions of neuronal genes in the hippocampus and loss of Mbd2 alters the expression of hundreds of genes with a robust down-regulation of neuronal gene pathways. (bvsalud.org)
  • Plays diverse roles in the control of cell growth, survival and apoptosis via p38 MAPK signaling in muscle-specific and/or growth factor-related transcription. (nih.gov)
  • Plays a critical role in the regulation of neuronal apoptosis (By similarity). (nih.gov)
  • MEF2C is a transcription activator which binds specifically to the MEF2 element present in the regulatory regions of many muscle-specific genes. (thermofisher.com)
  • Transcriptional activator which binds specifically to the MEF2 element, 5'-YTA[AT](4)TAR-3', found in numerous muscle-specific, growth factor- and stress-induced genes. (nih.gov)
  • Mediates cellular functions not only in skeletal and cardiac muscle development, but also in neuronal differentiation and survival. (nih.gov)
  • Immunocytochemical, immunoelectron microscopic, and biochemical analyses of rodent neuronal cells showed that a portion of MEF2D was targeted to mitochondria via an N-terminal motif and the chaperone protein mitochondrial heat shock protein 70 (mtHsp70). (nih.gov)
  • MEF2D binding induced ND6 transcription. (nih.gov)
  • Further, a genome-wide DNA methylation analysis found an altered DNA methylation pattern in regulatory DNA regions of neuronal genes in Mbd2-/- mice. (bvsalud.org)
  • Many such complexes act mechanistically by altering epigenetic profiles of genes important to Treg function, including the forkhead P3 (Foxp3) transcription factor. (bvsalud.org)
  • This view reflects the amazing conservation of genetic apparatus that has been discovered across the Bilateria, particularly of genes encoding transcription factors and signaling molecules. (silverchair.com)
  • Its members are X factor (HEMIN) independent and variably dependent on V factor (NAD). (nih.gov)
  • Crucial for normal neuronal development, distribution, and electrical activity in the neocortex. (thermofisher.com)
