Outline of Final Research Achievements |
GATA4 forms a large complex with an intrinsic histone acetyltransferase, p300 and these factors are involved in transcriptional regulation during myocardial cell hypertrophy. Moreover, noble p300/GATA4 binding partners, PRMT5/MEP5 complex, SWI/SNF complex, NuRD complex, and N-CoR/SMRT complex form a functional complex with p300/GATA4 and suppress hypertrophic responses in cardiomyocytes and development of heart failure.
