β-catenin is associated with the endogenous MITF promoter and modulates MITF expression levels. (A) In vivo association of β-catenin with the mouse MITF promoter by chromatin immunoprecipitation. The mouse tyrosinase promoter is a transcriptionally active negative control. (B) Ectopic expression of β-catenin leads to endogenous upregulation of MITF protein levels, and conversely, dnTCF downregulates MITF protein as quantitated by flow cytometry and analysis of transfected (gated GFP-positive) cells.
