Table 1. Transcriptional cofactors of β-catenin.

Transcriptional cofactors Negative or positive regulators Binding site in β-catenin Mechanisms
TCF family [61] Positive Arm3-8 repeats Binds to promoters of target genes.
P300/CBP [62] Positive C-terminus Acetylates histone H3 to promote transcription; acetylates β-catenin to enhance the interaction between β-catenin and TCF4.
Brg-1 [64] Positive Unknown Facilitating chromatin remodeling as a prerequisite for efficient transcriptional activation.
Pontin52/CBP [67] Positive Unknown Binds with TBP and β-catenin to promote transcription.
Reptin52/TIP49 [67] Negative Unknown Plays opposite roles compared to Pontin52/TBP.
BCL9 [68] Positive Arm 1 repeat Acts as an adaptor linking Pygopus to the nuclear β-catenin-TCF complex to promote transcription.
Mllt/Af10-Dot1 [70] Positive C-terminus Essential for transcription elongation.
p68/p72 [71] Positive Arm 3-8 repeats Binds to promoters of target genes.
SOX10 [72] Positive Unknown Forms a ternary complex with TCF4 and β-catenin.
βTrCp1/Fbw1a [73] Positive Interacts with P300 Interacts with p300 and β-catenin, and co-localizes to the promoters of β-catenin targets.
FOXOM1 [123] Positive Arm 11-12 repeats Forms a ternary complex with TCF4 and β-catenin.
Yes-associated protein 1 [7] Positive Unknown Forms a ternary complex with TBX5 and β-catenin.
