Rat Transcription Factor GATA-4 - GATA-4 ELISA Kit

Transcriptional activator that binds to the consensus sequence 5'-AGATAG-3' and plays a key role in cardiac development (By similarity). In cooperation with TBX5, it binds to cardiac super-enhancers and promotes cardiomyocyte gene expression, while it downregulates endocardial and endothelial gene [removed]By similarity). Acts as a transcriptional activator of ANF in cooperation with NKX2-5 (By similarity). Promotes cardiac myocyte enlargement (By similarity). Required during testicular development (By similarity). Involved in bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-mediated induction of cardiac-specific gene [removed]PubMed:15329343). Binds to BMP response element (BMPRE) DNA sequences within cardiac activating regions (PubMed:15329343). May...

Binds to BMP response element (BMPRE) DNA sequences within cardiac activating regions (PubMed:15329343). May play a role in sphingolipid signaling by regulating the expression of sphingosine-1-phosphate degrading enzyme, sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (By similarity).
