factores nucleares de los linfocitos T activados
Scope note: Familia de factores de transcripción caracterizados por la presencia de dominios de unión a la calcineurina y al ADN muy conservados. Las proteínas NFAT se activan en el CITOPLASMA por la acción de la CALCINEURINA (fosfatasa dependiente del calcio). Transduce señales de calcio al núcleo, en donde puede interactuar con el FACTOR DE TRANSCRIPCIÓN AP-1 o NF-KAPPA B, e iniciar la TRANSCRIPCIÓN GENÉTICA de GENES que intervienen en la DIFERENCIACIÓN CELULAR y en el desarrollo celulares. Las proteínas NFAT estimulan la activación de los LINFOCITOS T por la inducción de GENES INMEDIATOS TEMPRANOS como la INTERLEUCINA-2.

Scope note: A family of transcription factors characterized by the presence of highly conserved calcineurin- and DNA-binding domains. NFAT proteins are activated in the CYTOPLASM by the calcium-dependent phosphatase CALCINEURIN. They transduce calcium signals to the nucleus where they can interact with TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR AP-1 or NF-KAPPA B and initiate GENETIC TRANSCRIPTION of GENES involved in CELL DIFFERENTIATION and development. NFAT proteins stimulate T-CELL activation through the induction of IMMEDIATE-EARLY GENES such as INTERLEUKIN-2.

Concept UI M0361472
Scope note A signal-dependent transcription factor that controls cellular response to osmotic stress. NFAT5 is closely related to NFATC PROTEINS but resides constitutively in the CELL NUCLEUS and operates independently of CALCINEURIN and TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR AP-1.
