High Mobility Group A1 (HMGA1): Structure, Biological Function, …
HMGA1 is a nonhistone chromatin structural protein encoded by oncogenes and located in the nucleus. It can change the structure of DNA by binding to the rills of the A+T rich region in dsDNA and interact with transcription factors to regulate transcription.
HMGA1 - Wikipedia
HMGA1 preferentially binds to the minor groove of AT-rich regions in double-stranded DNA using its AT-hooks. It has little secondary structure in solution but assumes distinct conformations when bound to substrates such as DNA or other proteins.

2024年12月25日 · HMGA1 (High Mobility Group AT-Hook 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with HMGA1 include Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Lipomatosis, Familial Multiple. Among its related pathways are HIV Life Cycle and Infectious disease.
HMGA1 Modulates Gene Transcription Sustaining a Tumor …
We demonstrate that, in a triple-negative breast cancer cellular model, HMGA1 sustains the action of epigenetic modifiers and in particular it positively influences both histone H3S10 phosphorylation by ribosomal protein S6 kinase alpha-3 (RSK2) and histone H2BK5 acetylation by CREB-binding protein (CBP).
Scientists Identify Epigenetic Key That ‘Opens’ Door to Colon Cancer
2025年2月20日 · A gene called high mobility group A1 (HMGA1) may be the key that opens the door to the development of colon cancer, according to research led by investigators from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, Johns Hopkins Department of Medicine, Johns Hopkins Department of Pathology and the Johns Hopkins Institute for Cell Engineering.
The High Mobility Group A1 (HMGA1) Transcriptome in Cancer …
HMGA1 proteins function as ancillary transcription factors that bend chromatin and recruit other transcription factors to DNA. They induce oncogenic transformation by activating or repressing specific genes involved in this process and an HMGA1 “transcriptome” is emerging.
HMGA1 orchestrates chromatin compartmentalization and
2024年8月12日 · HMGA1 is an abundant non-histone chromatin protein that has been implicated in embryonic development, cancer, and cellular senescence, but its specific role remains elusive.
Roles of HMGA proteins in cancer - Nature Reviews Cancer
HMGA1 proteins are products of the same gene, generated through alternative splicing. They are non-histone nuclear proteins known as 'architectural transcriptional factors'. HMGA gene...
HMGA - Wikipedia
HMGA is a family of high mobility group proteins characterized by an AT-hook.They code for a "small, nonhistone, chromatin-associated protein that has no intrinsic transcriptional activity but can modulate transcription by altering the chromatin architecture". [1] Mammals have two orthologs: HMGA1 and HMGA2.
HMGA1 acts as an epigenetic gatekeeper of ASCL2 and Wnt
2025年2月3日 · Here, we uncover a previously unknown epigenetic program whereby HMGA1 amplifies Wnt signaling during colon tumorigenesis driven by inflammatory microbiota and/or Adenomatous polyposis coli (Apc) inactivation.
