Supplementary information

The transcription factor CTF/NFIA also known simply as NFIA plays a significant role in gene regulation. It has a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa. CTF/NFIA is expressed in various tissues with a higher abundance in the central nervous system particularly during development. It binds to specific DNA sequences influencing the transcription of target genes essential for developmental processes and cellular differentiation.
Biological function summary

CTF/NFIA participates in several cellular processes by forming part of a complex that regulates transcription. This complex influences the expression of genes involved in neurodevelopment and gliogenesis. CTF/NFIA acts as a major regulator controlling genes important for the proper formation of brain structure and function. Its ability to modulate gene expression allows it to act as a mediator for cellular environments that require precise genetic control.

Pathways

The protein integrates a network involving the Wnt signaling pathway and the Hedgehog signaling pathway. These pathways are fundamental in maintaining proper cellular growth division and differentiation. In the Wnt signaling pathway CTF/NFIA interacts with the β-catenin complex to control the expression of genes related to cell fate decisions. Similarly within the Hedgehog signaling pathway CTF/NFIA helps in modulating transcriptional responses to developmental cues.

CTF/NFIA has significant implications for brain-related conditions including hydrocephalus and intellectual disabilities. Mutations or dysregulation of NFIA are linked to structural brain malformations that can have severe impacts. Additionally CTF/NFIA interacts with proteins like GLI1 in the context of disease further highlighting its role in signal transduction pathways that when disrupted contribute to these disorders.
