  • ATN2L
  • N-terminal MTA-2-homologous domain followed by an Atrophin-1-related domain
  • has a transcriptional repression activity that is not found in the other Atrophin polypeptides and that is required for normal embryogenesis
  • 13 - 6321 - 1012 in vascular smooth muscle cell, mRNA expression was more responsive to stimuli 2007 17150957
  • ATN2S
  • expressed via an internal promoter, consists solely of the Atrophin domain
  • Atrophin-1 and the short form of RERE, can act as potent and evolutionarily conserved transcriptional activators

    text
  • FAT1 and RERE colocalized at cell-cell junctions, in the perinuclear area, and in the nucleus
  • basic FUNCTION
  • protein protein interaction
  • ATN1 and RERE function as bifunctional transcriptional regulators
  • required for the normal patterning of the early vertebrate embryo, including the central nervous system, pharyngeal arches, and limbs
  • playing an important role in the control of cell survival
  • FAT1 and ATRS (ATN1 and RERE), act in concert after vascular injury but show further that distinct Atr isoforms have disparate effects on vascular smooth muscle cells directional migration
  • controls retinoic acid signalling, which is required to maintain somite symmetry by interacting with FGF8 in the left-right signalling pathway
  • controls retinoic acid signalling and somite bilateral symmetry
  • nuclear receptor coregulator that positively regulates retinoic acid signaling
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component RERE forms a complex with NR2F2, EP300 and a retinoic acid receptor, which is recruited to the retinoic acid regulatory element of retinoic acid targets
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • binding DRPLA enhancer by extended polyglutamine
  • binds histone deacetylase 1 and 2 (HDAC1/2), and orphan nuclear receptors such as NR2E1
  • interactions between FAT1 and Atrophins (ATN1, RERE) might contribute to FAT1 effects on vascular smooth muscle cells
  • cell & other
