The mysteriously diverse phenotypes in mice lacking the p53 homolog p73 are recently unified by new analysis showing p73 is required for formation of multiciliated epithelia. p73 directly activates FoxJ1, the central transcriptional driver for multiciliation, and induces a host of genes critical for ciliogenesis.
最近,通过新的分析揭示了缺乏p53同源物p73的小鼠中神秘多样的表型,这些表型得到了统一,该分析表明p73是多纤毛上皮形成所必需的。p73直接激活FoxJ1,后者是多纤毛形成的核心转录驱动因子,并诱导一系列对纤毛发生至关重要的基因。
