Microphthalmia Associated Transcription Factor Is a Target of the Phosphatidylinositol-3-Kinase Pathway [PDF]
In B16 melanoma cells, cyclic adenosine monophosphate inhibits the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase and the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibitor, LY294002, stimulates melanogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms, by which phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibition increases melanogenesis remained to be identified. In this study, we show that LY294002

The Transcription Factor Onecut-2 Controls the Microphthalmia-Associated Transcription Factor Gene
Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is essential for melanocyte differentiation. MITF mutations are associated with some cases of Waardenburg syndrome (WS) type 2. WS is a dominantly inherited disease characterized by auditory-pigmentary defects that result from the absence of melanocytes. The lack of mutation in MITF coding sequences

Modulation of Microphthalmia-associated Transcription Factor Gene Expression Alters Skin Pigmentation [PDF]
The microphthalmia-associated transcription factor is implicated in melanocyte development and in the regulation of melanogenesis. Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor is thought to bind to the M-box promoter elements of tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1 and dopachrome tautomerase/tyrosinase-related protein-2 and transactivate these ...

Structural basis of CBP/p300 recruitment by the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2022ABSTRACT The microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is a master regulator of the melanocyte cell lineage. Aberrant MITF activity can lead to multiple malignancies including skin cancer, where it modulates the proliferation and invasiveness of melanoma. MITF-dependent gene expression requires recruitment

CBP/p300 as a co-factor for the Microphthalmia transcription factor
The Microphthalmia basic-Helix-Loop-Helix-Leucine Zipper (bHLH-LZ) transcription factor (Mi) plays a crucial role in the genesis of melanocytes; mice deficient for a functional (Microphthalmia) gene product lack all pigment cells.
