Recruitment of SWI/SNF Complex Is Required for Transcriptional Activation of the SLC11A1 Gene during Macrophage Differentiation of HL-60 Cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The solute carrier family 11 member 1 (SLC11A1) gene is strictly regulated and exclusively expressed in myeloid lineage cells. However, little is known about the transcriptional regulation of the SLC11A1 gene during myeloid development. In this study, we used HL-60 cells as a model to investigate the regulatory elements/factors involved in the transactivation of the SLC11A1 gene during phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced macrophage differentiation of HL-60 cells. Promoter deletion analysis showed that a 7-base AP-1-like element (TGACTCT) was critical for the responsiveness of the SLC11A1 promoter to PMA. Stimulation by PMA induced the binding of ATF-3 and the recruitment of two components of the SWI/SNF complex, BRG1 and β-actin, to this element in an ATF-3-dependent manner. RNAi-mediated depletion of ATF-3 or BRG1 markedly decreased SLC11A1 gene expression and its promoter activity induced by PMA. Luciferase reporter experiments demonstrated that ATF-3 cooperated with BRG1 and β-actin to activate the SLC11A1 promoter. Furthermore, we showed that PMA can induce the proximal (GT/AC)(n) repeat sequence to convert to the Z-DNA structure in the SLC11A1 gene promoter, and depletion of BRG1 resulted in a significant decrease of Z-DNA formation. Our results demonstrated that recruitment of the SWI/SNF complex initiated Z-DNA formation and subsequently helped to transactivate the SLC11A1 gene.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
