Kcnip3 binds Npas4 gene promoter
In mouse neurons, in the absence of neuronal activity-induced calcium influx, Kcnip3 (DREAM) binds to the promoter of the Npas4 gene and represses Npas4 transcription (Mellström et al. 2014). Magnesium is required for stable binding of mouse Kcnip3 homotetramers to target DNA. Kcnip3 possesses one high-affinity, constitutive, Mg2+ binding site and two low-affinity Mg2+ sites (Osawa et al. 2005).
