Reciprocal stabilization of transcription factor binding integrates two signaling pathways to regulate fission yeast fbp1 transcription.
Title: Reciprocal stabilization of transcription factor binding integrates two signaling pathways to regulate fission yeast fbp1 transcription.
Phosphorylation of the Transcription Factor Atf1 at Multiple Sites by the MAP Kinase Sty1 Controls Homologous Recombination and Transcription.
Title: Phosphorylation of the Transcription Factor Atf1 at Multiple Sites by the MAP Kinase Sty1 Controls Homologous Recombination and Transcription.
Sty1 and Atf1 were involved in regulating mitotic slowdown in Schizosaccharomyces pombe under nitrosative stress.
Title: Transcription factors Atf1 and Sty1 promote stress tolerance under nitrosative stress in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
study presents evidence in favour of selective inhibition of Atf1's ability to activate cdc13+ transcription; show that Pcr1 can specifically inhibit the recruitment of Atf1 on cdc13 promoter thereby preventing Atf1-mediated mitotic acceleration; also show that this opposition of Atf1 functions by Pcr1 extends to the G1-S transition event
Title: Antagonistic regulation of cyclin expression by the bZIP transcription factors Pcr1 and Atf1 during G2/M transition.
Data suggest that S. pombe 972 expressing a nonphosphorylatable Atf1 variant is more sensitive to oxidative stress because of impaired transcription of subset of stress genes whose expression is controlled by Pap1; in S. pombe 972 expressing phospho-mimicking Atf1 mutant, presence of Sty1 is completely dispensable. (Atf1 = transcription factor Atf1; Sty1 = MAP kinase Sty1; Pap1 = transcription factor Pap1)
Title: Deciphering the role of the signal- and Sty1 kinase-dependent phosphorylation of the stress-responsive transcription factor Atf1 on gene activation.
A group of hotspots in fission yeast are associated with sequences similar to the cyclic AMP response element and activated by the ATF/CREB family transcription factor dimer Atf1-Pcr1.
Title: Correlation of Meiotic DSB Formation and Transcription Initiation Around Fission Yeast Recombination Hotspots.
The data indicates that the Atf1 transcription factor binding to promoters acts as an effective barrier to fix the +1 nucleosome and phase downstream nucleosome arrays to prevent cryptic transcription.
Title: Binding of the transcription factor Atf1 to promoters serves as a barrier to phase nucleosome arrays and avoid cryptic transcription.
Atf1 binds to the Cdc13 promoter, leading to activation of Cdc13 expression.
Title: The basic leucine zipper domain transcription factor Atf1 directly controls Cdc13 expression and regulates mitotic entry independently of Wee1 and Cdc25 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
The data indicate that Atf1 and Pcr1 induce the transcription of agl1, which allows efficient utilization of extracellular maltose.
Title: The transcription factors Atf1 and Pcr1 are essential for transcriptional induction of the extracellular maltase Agl1 in fission yeast.
Atf1 regulates stress-induced changes in the stability and decay of many RNA transcripts.
Title: A stress-activated, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase-ATF/CREB pathway regulates posttranscriptional, sequence-dependent decay of target RNAs.
