LEF-1 activates the transcription of E2F1.

LEF-1 and E2F are both transcription factors involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. The present study shows for the first time that LEF-1 associates with E2F1 and further beta-catenin independently activates the E2F-responsive reporter gene by attenuating the interaction between E2F1 and Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1), which indicates that ...
LEF-1, except for its function in Wnt signaling, may play a distinct role via activating the transcription of E2F1.
