Transcription

2.2 kb mRNA; alternative splicing: --> PLZFa and PLZFb

Proteins

Description

540 and 673 amino acids, 62 and 74 kDa (PLZFa and b respectively); Kr¸ppel-like zinc finger protein; N-term BTB/POZ domain (protein-protein interaction motif) and 9 zinc finger domains in C-term

Expression

highly specific for hematopoietic cells; during mouse development, PLZF is expressed in embryonic tissus, giving rise to hematopoietic progenitors; in man, PLZF is expressed in CD34+ progenitor cells and in primitive multipotent hematopoietic cell lines; PLZF levels decrease progressively with cell maturation and also with maturation induced by ATRA treatment.

Localisation

nuclear; immunodetection shows a nuclear speckeled distribution of PLZF, resulting from a localization on discrete nuclear bodies whose formation is dependent on the integrity of the BTB/POZ domain.

Function

putative transcription factor associated with myeloid differentiation; sequence specific DNA binding activity; in co-transfection experiments, PLZF has been shown to represses the transcription.

Homology

with the zinc finger MZF-1

Implicated in

Entity name
t(11;17)(q23;q21) in M3 AML --> ZBTB16 - RARA
Disease
acute promyelocytic leukaemia with a variant translocation
Prognosis
worse prognosis than M3 AML with t(15;17), because the patients fail to respond to the maturation effect of ATRA
Cytogenetics
t(11;17), like t(15;17)(q22;q21), and like another t(11;17)(q13;q21), with a discrete breakpoint in 11q13 are, closely related to t(15;17)(q22;q21)
Hybrid gene
both fusion transcripts are expressed
Fusion protein
the two fusion proteins are produced; the PLZF/RARa protein contains the N-terminal BTB/POZ domain and two out of the nine zinc finger domains from PLZF; tThe POZ domain is largely responsible for the activity of PLZF/RARa fusion protein.
