Transcription factors involved in KAP1-regulated gene expression

Transcription factor KAP1 function Ref.
Myc KAP1 is involved in MM-1 and HDAC1 complex to suppress c-Myc transcription activity [10,11]
ZNF160 KAP1 interacts with ZNF160 and recruits HDAC to downregulate TLR4 in intestinal epithelial cells [79]
Oct3/4 KAP1 is potentially involved in regulating pluripotency of embryonic stem cells [78]
E2F1 KAP1 suppresses E2F1 transcriptional activity and inhibits E2F1 acetylation in an HDAC1 dependent manner [13]
p53 KAP1 is associated with MDM2-p53-HDAC1 complex and inhibits p53 acetylation and promotes p53 degradation [75]
p53 MAGE proteins stabilize KAP1-p53 complex to decrease acetylation and promote degradation of p53 [80]
p53 KAP1 ubiquitinates p53 for proteasome degradation [23]
IRF7 KAP1 sumolyates IRF7 and suppresses IRF7 transcriptional activity in IFN production [24]
ZBRK1 KAP1 interacts with ZBRK1 to repress Gadd45α and p21 gene expression [16,17,69]
HIF-1α VHLaK potentially recruits KAP1 to HIF-1α complex to suppress HIF-1α downstream gene expression [72]
Nrf2 KAP1 interacts with Nrf2 and facilitates Nrf2 transactivation activity [76]
STAT3 KAP1 interacts with STAT3 to suppress STAT3 transcriptional activity [82]
STAT1 KAP1 interacts with STAT1 to suppress STAT1 transcriptional activity [50]
ZNF689 ZNF689 potentially recruits KAP1 to suppress autophagy-gene-targeting miRNAs [71]
FOXP3 KAP1 is recruited by FIK in FOXP3-FIK-KAP1 complex to suppress FOXP3-target genes [74]
NFκB KAP1 is associated with NFκB and negatively regulates it acetylation and transcriptional activity [51]
SRY KAP1 is recruited by KRAB-O to SRY binding sites for gene regulation [68,73]
ZFP57 ZFP57 and KAP1 are associated with NP95-DNMT complex for maintaining DNA methylation at imprinting control region [59,61,62]

VHLaK: VHL-associated KRAB-A domain-containing protein; HDAC: Histone deacetylase; DNMT: DNA methyltransferase.
