Over‐expression of MSG1 Transcriptional Co‐activator Increases Melanin in B16 Melanoma Cells: A Possible Role for MSG1 in Melanogenesis

Abstract: MSG1 is a 27 kDa nuclear protein that is expressed strongly in melanotic B16 melanoma cells but very weakly in amelanotic B16 cells. Transient expression of B16 cells with an expression vector for MSG1 resulted in an increase in levels of the enzyme dopachrome tautomerase but not tyrosinase, as detected by western blotting. Stable transfection of B16 melanoma cells with plasmids containing the full length MSG1 or its deletion mutants, however, generated cell lines that showed an increase in levels of tyrosinas… Show more

“…It is well established that the LH surge is closely related to photoperiod in experimental animals (Legan & Karsch 1975, Legan et al 1975, suggesting a possibly similar role for this gene in the regulation of LH secretion. Cited1 has been shown to function as a transcriptional coregulator of estrogen in a manner dependent on ER ligand binding and its interaction with CBP/p300 transcriptional coactivator (Shioda et al 1996, Yahata et al 2000, Nair et al 2001. While its role in the pituitary has yet to be studied in depth, the evidence presented in this study suggests that Cited1 may be a coregulator of ERa in this tissue as well.…”

“…CITED1 was originally identified in a murine melanoma cell line and was shown to be associated with the process of melanogenesis (Shioda et al, 1996;Nair et al, 2001). It was subsequently shown to function as a transcriptional coregulator of both the estrogen receptor and SMAD4 in a manner dependent on either estrogen receptor ligand binding or TGFb induced SMAD dimerization and its interaction with the CBP/p300 transcriptional coactivator Yahata et al, 2000).…”

“…CITED1, a transcriptional coactivator belonging to the CITED family, was originally identified in a murine melanoma cell line and implicated in the melanogenesis process (33,40). Members of this family of non-DNA-binding proteins contain a well conserved C-terminal acidic domain that accounts for their strong transcriptional activating activity (40).…”
