Involved in induction of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), formation and maintenance of embryonic mesoderm, growth arrest, survival and cell migration (PubMed:10655587, PubMed:15647282, PubMed:20389281, PubMed:20562920, PubMed:21952048, PubMed:25827072). Binds to 3 E-boxes of the E-cadherin/CDH1 gene promoter and to the promoters of CLDN7 and KRT8 and, in association with histone demethylase KDM1A which it recruits to the promoters, causes a decrease in dimethylated H3K4 levels and represses transcription (PubMed:10655587, PubMed:20389281, PubMed:20562920). The N-terminal SNAG domain competes with histone H3 for the same binding site on the histone demethylase complex formed by KDM1A and RCOR1, and thereby inhibits demethylation of histone H3 at 'Lys-4' (in vitro) (PubMed:20389281, PubMed:21300290, PubMed:23721412). During EMT, involved with LOXL2 in negatively regulating pericentromeric heterochromatin transcription (PubMed:16096638). SNAI1 recruits LOXL2 to pericentromeric regions to oxidize histone H3 and repress transcription which leads to release of heterochromatin component CBX5/HP1A, enabling chromatin reorganization and acquisition of mesenchymal traits (By similarity). Associates with EGR1 and SP1 to mediate tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA)-induced up-regulation of CDKN2B, possibly by binding to the CDKN2B promoter region 5'-TCACA-3 (PubMed:20121949). In addition, may also activate the CDKN2B promoter by itself (PubMed:20121949).

SNAIL and SLUG also known as Snai1 and Snai2 are zinc finger transcription factors important in the regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). These proteins are expressed mainly in various developing tissues and tumors. The molecular weight of SNAIL is approximately 29 kDa while SLUG typically has a mass around 30 kDa. These factors function within the nucleus binding to E-box sequences in DNA to repress the transcription of epithelial markers.
SNAIL and SLUG operate as vital regulators of cell motility and invasion by modulating gene expression. They do not work alone; they participate as components of a complex with other EMT-inducing transcription factors including TWIST and ZEB. These factors suppress E-cadherin and other adhesion molecules which facilitates the disassembly of tight junctions between cells promoting a mesenchymal phenotype that is more migratory and invasive.
These transcription factors play key roles in both the TGF-beta and Wnt signaling pathways. In the TGF-beta pathway SNAIL and SLUG regulate gene expression to support EMT affecting processes in development and cancer progression. Within the Wnt pathway these factors interact with beta-catenin impacting cell cycle regulation and supporting cells' transition between epithelial and mesenchymal states a critical step in tumor metastasis.
SNAIL and SLUG significantly relate to cancer and fibrosis. In cancer their interaction with proteins such as ZEB and TWIST is important for the metastasis of carcinoma cells. In fibrosis these transcription factors link to TGF-beta-induced fibroblast activation contributing to tissue scarring. The dysregulation of SNAIL and SLUG often serves as an indicator of poor prognosis due to their roles in promoting invasive and metastatic properties in cancer.
