basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain found in achaete-scute complex-like (ASCL) family; The achaete-scute complex-like (ASCL, also known as achaete-scute complex homolog or ASH) family of bHLH transcription factors, ASCL1-5, have been implicated in cell fate specification and differentiation. They are critical for proper development of the nervous system. The deregulation of ASCL plays a key role in psychiatric and neurological disorders. ASCL-1, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 46 (bHLHa46), or achaete-scute homolog 1 (ASH-1), or mammalian achaete-scute homolog 1 (Mash1), is a neural-specific bHLH transcription factor that is expressed in subsets of neural progenitors in both the central and peripheral nervous system. It plays a key role in neuronal differentiation and specification in the nervous system. ASCL-2, also termed achaete-scute homolog 2 (ASH-2), or Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 45 (bHLHa45), or mammalian achaete-scute homolog 2 (Mash2), is a bHLH transcription factor that is involved in Schwann cell differentiation and control of proliferation in adult peripheral nerves. ASCL-3, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 42 (bHLHa42), or bHLH transcriptional regulator Sgn-1, or achaete-scute homolog 3 (ASH-3), is a bHLH transcription factor specifically localized in the duct cells of the salivary glands. It may act as transcriptional repressor that inhibits myogenesis. The family also includes Drosophila melanogaster achaete-scute complex (AS-C) proteins, which consists of lethal of scute (also known as achaete-scute complex protein T3 or AST3), scute (also known as achaete-scute complex protein T4 or AST4), achaete (also known as achaete-scute complex protein T5 or AST5), and asense (also known as achaete-scute complex protein T8 or AST8). They are involved in the determination of the neuronal precursors in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system, as well as in sex determination and dosage compensation.

basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain found in transcription factor 23 (TCF-23) and similar proteins; TCF-23, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 24 (bHLHa24), is a bHLH transcription factor that is essential for progesterone-dependent decidualization. The mouse homolog is also called ovary, uterus and testis protein (OUT), which is expressed predominantly in the reproductive organs such as the uterus, ovary and testis. It shows an Id-like inhibitory activity and functions as a negative regulator of bHLH factors through the formation of a functionally inactive heterodimeric complex. OUT inhibits the formation of TCF3 and MYOD1 homodimers and heterodimers, but lacks DNA binding activity. OUT is involved in the regulation or modulation of smooth muscle contraction of the uterus during pregnancy and particularly around the time of delivery. It also plays a role in the inhibition of myogenesis. Unlike typical bHLH factors, OUT proteins do not bind E-box (CANNTG) or N-box DNA sequences and inhibit DNA binding of homo- and heterodimers consisting of E12 and MyoD in gel mobility shift assays.

86-129 4.69e-13

basic Helix Loop Helix (bHLH) domain superfamily; bHLH proteins are transcriptional regulators that are found in organisms from yeast to humans. Members of the bHLH superfamily have two highly conserved and functionally distinct regions. The basic part is at the amino end of the bHLH that may bind DNA to a consensus hexanucleotide sequence known as the E box (CANNTG). Different families of bHLH proteins recognize different E-box consensus sequences. At the carboxyl-terminal end of the region is the HLH region that interacts with other proteins to form homo- and heterodimers. bHLH proteins function as a diverse set of regulatory factors because they recognize different DNA sequences and dimerize with different proteins. The bHLH proteins can be divided to cell-type specific and widely expressed proteins. The cell-type specific members of bHLH superfamily are involved in cell-fate determination and act in neurogenesis, cardiogenesis, myogenesis, and hematopoiesis.

84-133 2.96e-11

basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain found in neurogenic differentiation factor (NeuroD) family; The NeuroD family includes NeuroD1, NeuroD2, NeuroD4 and NeuroD6. NeuroD1, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 3 (bHLHa3), is a neuronal bHLH transcription factor involved in the development and maintenance of the endocrine pancreas and neuronal elements. It acts as an essential regulator of glutamatergic neuronal differentiation. Loss of NeuroD1 causes ataxia, cerebellar hypoplasia, sensorineural deafness, and severe retinal dystrophy in mice. NeuroD2, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 1 (bHLHa1), or NeuroD-related factor (NDRF), is a neuronal calcium-dependent bHLH transcription factor that induces neuronal differentiation and promotes neuronal survival. It plays a central role in thalamocortical synaptic maturation. NeuroD2 mediates calcium-dependent transcription activation by binding to E box-containing promoter. NeuroD4, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 4 (bHLHa4), or protein atonal homolog 3 (ATH-3), or Atoh3, or Math-3, is a bHLH transcriptional activator that mediates neuronal differentiation. NeuroD6, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 2 (bHLHa2), or protein atonal homolog 2 (ATH-2), or Atoh2, or Math2, or Nex1, is a neurogenic bHLH transcription factor involved in neuronal development, differentiation, and survival in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains of both cohorts. It plays an integrative role in coordinating increase in mitochondrial mass with cytoskeletal remodeling, suggesting that it may act as a co-regulator of neuronal differentiation and energy metabolism.

81-133 3.20e-11

basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain found in ovary, uterus and testis protein (OUT) family; The OUT family includes transcription factor 23 (TCF-23), transcription factor 24 (TCF-24) and similar proteins. TCF-23, also termed Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 24 (bHLHa24), is a bHLH transcription factor that is essential for progesterone-dependent decidualization. The mouse homolog is also called ovary, uterus and testis protein (OUT), which is expressed predominantly in the reproductive organs such as the uterus, ovary and testis. It shows an Id-like inhibitory activity and functions as a negative regulator of bHLH factors through the formation of a functionally inactive heterodimeric complex. OUT inhibits the formation of TCF3 and MYOD1 homodimers and heterodimers, but lacks DNA binding activity. OUT is involved in the regulation or modulation of smooth muscle contraction of the uterus during pregnancy and particularly around the time of delivery. It also plays a role in the inhibition of myogenesis. Unlike typical bHLH factors, OUT proteins do not bind E-box (CANNTG) or N-box DNA sequences and inhibit DNA binding of homo- and heterodimers consisting of E12 and MyoD in gel mobility shift assays. TCF-24 is an uncharacterized bHLH transcription factor that shows high sequence similarity with TCF-23.

85-134 3.52e-06

basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain found in Oligodendrocyte lineage genes (OLIG) family of transcription factors; The OLIG family includes three bHLH transcription factors, Oligo1-3, which are expressed in both the developing and mature central nervous system. Oligo1 and Oligo2 are expressed in a nervous tissue-specific manner, but Oligo3 is found mainly in non-neural tissues. Oligo (also known as Olig) have key roles in the specification of motor neurons, dorsal interneurons, and oligodendrocytes. Oligo1, also termed Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 6 (bHLHb6), or Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 21 (bHLHe21), promotes formation and maturation of oligodendrocytes, especially within the brain. Oligo2, also termed Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 1 (bHLHb1), or Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 19 (bHLHe19), or protein kinase C-binding protein 2, or protein kinase C-binding protein RACK17, is required for oligodendrocyte and motor neuron specification in the spinal cord, as well as for the development of somatic motor neurons in the hindbrain. It cooperates with OLIG1 to establish the MN progenitors (pMN) domain of the embryonic neural tube. Oligo3, also termed Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 7 (bHLHb7), or Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 20 (bHLHe20), is expressed in the ventricular zone of the dorsal alar plate of the hindbrain and involved in regulating the development of dorsal and ventral spinal cord. It may determine the distinct specification program of class A neurons in the dorsal part of the spinal cord and suppress specification of class B neurons. This family also includes two OLIG-related bHLH transcription factors, bHLHe22 and bHLHe23. bHLHe22, also termed Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 5 (bHLHb5), or trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 20 protein, is a neural-specific transcriptional repressor that is expressed in both excitatory (unipolar brush cells) and inhibitory neurons (cartwheel cells) of the dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) during development. It is important for the proper development and/or survival of a number of neural cell types. bHLHe23, also termed Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 4 (bHLHb4), is expressed in rod bipolar cells and is required for rod bipolar cell maturation. bHLHe23 have roles in spinal interneuron differentiation by mechanisms linked to the Notch signaling pathway. It modulates the expression of genes required for the differentiation and/or maintenance of pancreatic and neuronal cell types.

86-129 6.76e-06

basic Helix-Loop-Helix-zipper (bHLHzip) domain found in USF/MITF family; The USF (upstream stimulatory factor)/MITF (microphthalmia-associated transcription factor) family includes two bHLHzip transcription factor subfamilies. USFs are ubiquitously expressed and key regulators of a wide number of gene regulation networks, including the stress and immune responses, cell cycle and proliferation, lipid and glucid metabolism. USFs recruit chromatin remodeling enzymes and interact with co-activators and the members of the transcription pre-initiation complex. USFs interact with high affinity to E-box regulatory elements. The MITF (also known as microphthalmia-TFE, or MiT) subfamily comprises four genes in mammals (MITF, TFE3, TFEB, and TFEC); each gene has different functions. MITF is involved in neural crest melanocytes development as well as the pigmented retinal epithelium. TFEB is required for vascularization of the mouse placenta. TFE3 is involved in B cell function. TFEC regulates gene expression in macrophages. The MITF subfamily proteins can form homodimers or heterodimers with each other but not with other bHLH or bHLHzip proteins.

basic Helix-Loop-Helix-zipper (bHLHzip) domain found in MAX gene-associated protein (MGA) family; The MGA family includes MGA, Schizosaccharomyces pombe ESC1 (spESC1) and similar proteins. MGA, also termed MAX dimerization protein 5 (MAD5), is a dual specificity T-box/ bHLHzip transcription factor that regulates the expression of both Max-network and T-box family target genes. It contains a Myc-like bHLHZip motif and requires heterodimerization with Max for binding to the preferred Myc-Max-binding site CACGTG. In addition to the bHLHZip domain, MGA harbors a second DNA-binding domain, the T-box or T-domain. It thus binds the preferred Brachyury-binding sequence and represses transcription of reporter genes containing promoter-proximal Brachyury-binding sites. spESC1 is a bHLHzip protein with homology to human MyoD and Myf-5 myogenic differentiation inducers. It is involved in the sexual differentiation process.

basic Helix-Loop-Helix-zipper (bHLHzip) domain found in the Myc family; The Myc family is a member of the bHLHzip family of transcription factors that play important roles in the control of normal cell proliferation, growth, survival and differentiation. All Myc isoforms contain two independently functioning polypeptide chain regions: N-terminal transactivating residues and a C-terminal bHLHzip segment. The bHLHzip family of bHLH transcription factors are characterized by a highly conserved N-terminal basic region that may bind DNA at a consensus hexanucleotide sequence known as the E-box (CANNTG) followed by HLH and leucine zipper motifs that may interact with other proteins to form homo- and heterodimers. Myc heterodimerizes with Max enabling specific binding to E-box DNA sequences in the promoters of target genes. The Myc proto-oncoprotein family includes at least five different functional members: c-, N-, L-, S- and B-Myc (which is lacking the bHLH domain).

86-126 1.73e-03

basic helix-loop-helix-Per-ARNT-Sim (bHLH-PAS) domain family; bHLH-PAS domain has been found in a large group of bHLH transcription regulators that are involved in gene expression responding to environmental change and controlling aspects of neural development, including proteins from aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) family, hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) family, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) family, neuronal PAS domain-containing protein (NPAS) family, Circadian locomotor output cycles protein kaput (CLOCK)-like family, and single-minded (SIM) family. bHLH-PAS transcriptional regulatory factors have a bHLH DNA-binding domain followed by two PAS domains and a C-terminal activation or repression domain. bHLH-PAS family members can be divided into class I and class II based on their dimerization partner. bHLH-PAS class I factors include AhR, HIF and SIM. The best characterized bHLH-PAS Class II protein is the ubiquitous ARNT. Some members of bHLH-PAS family act as transcriptional coactivators (such as NCoA) that lack the ability to dimerize and bind DNA.

85-129 2.93e-03

basic helix-loop-helix-orange (bHLH-O) domain found in hairy and enhancer of split (HES)-related repressor protein (HERP)-like family; The HERP-like family includes bHLH-O transcriptional regulators that are related to the Drosophila hairy and Enhancer-of-split proteins. They contain a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain with an invariant glycine residue in its basic region, an orange domain in the central region and YXXW sequence motif at its C-terminal region. HERP proteins (HEY1, HEY2 and HEYL) act as downstream effectors of Notch signaling. They are involved in cardiovascular development and have roles in somitogenesis, myogenesis and gliogenesis. Hairy and enhancer of split-related protein HELT is a transcriptional repressor expressed in the developing central nervous system. It binds preferentially to the canonical E box sequence 5'-CACGCG-3' and regulates neuronal differentiation and/or identity. Differentially expressed in chondrocytes proteins, DEC1 and DEC2, are widely expressed in both embryonic and adult tissues and have been implicated in apoptosis, cell proliferation, and circadian rhythms, as well as malignancy in various cancers. Drosophila melanogaster protein clockwork orange (Cwo) is also included in this family. It is involved in the regulation of Drosophila circadian rhythms. It functions as both an activator and a repressor of clock gene expression.

basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain found in E proteins family; The E proteins family corresponds to class I bHLH proteins, which are widely expressed within the immune system and on which the majority of this chapter will be focused. Members in this family include E2A (also referred to as TCF-3), E47, TCF-12 (also referred to as HEB), and TCF-4 (also referred to as E2-2) in vertebrates, as well as the E protein ortholog, Daughterless (Da), from Drosophila melanogaster. E-proteins are expressed broadly and in certain complexes they are restricted to specific cell types. E-proteins homodimerize and heterodimerize with the tissue specific bHLH factors to bind DNA and regulate transcription and differentiation of cells during development. The activity of the E-proteins is regulated by two main mechanisms: first, the relative concentrations of E-proteins, tissue specific bHLH factors, and the Id proteins, and second, covalent modification.

81-129 6.15e-03

basic Helix-Loop-Helix-zipper (bHLHzip) domain found in sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) family and similar proteins; The SREBP family includes SREBP1 and SREBP2, which are bHLHzip transcriptional activator of genes encoding proteins essential for cholesterol biosynthesis/uptake and fatty acid biosynthesis. SREBP1 and SREBP2 are principally found in the liver and in adipocytes and made up of an N-terminal transcription factor portion (composed of an activation domain, a bHLHzip domain, and a nuclear localization signal), a hydrophobic region containing two membrane spanning regions, and a C-terminal regulatory segment. They recognize a symmetric sterol regulatory element (TCACNCCAC) instead of E-box. The family also includes Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcription factor HMS1 (also termed high-copy MEP suppressor protein 1) and serine-rich protein TYE7. HMS1 is a putative bHLHzip transcription factor involved in exit from mitosis and pseudohyphal differentiation. TYE7, also termed basic-helix-loop-helix protein SGC1, is a putative bHLHzip transcription activator required for Ty1-mediated glycolytic gene expression. TYE7 N-terminal is extremely rich in serine residues. It binds DNA on E-box motifs, 5'-CANNTG-3'. TYE7 is not essential for growth.
