Hes7 binds the Lfng gene
The Hairy and enhancer of split 7 (Hes7) protein binds 4 N-boxes in the promoter of the Lunatic fringe (Lfng) gene and represses activation of Lfng by Notch signaling (Bessho et al. 2001, Chen et al. 2005). Cyclic expression of Hes7 (Bessho et al. 2001) and repression of Notch signaling by Lfng (inferred from chicken homologs in Dale et al. 2003) cause cyclic expression of Lfng during somite formation.
