Summary |
The SP/KLF family of transcription factors harbour three C-terminal C2H2 zinc fingers interspersed by two linkers which confers DNA-binding to a 9-10bp motif. Mutations in KLF1, the founding member of the family, are common. Missense mutations in linker two result in a mild phenotypes. However, when co-inherited with loss-of-function mutations, they result in severe non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia. We generated a mouse model of this disease by crossing Klf1+/- mice with Klf1H350R/+ mice that harbour a missense mutation in linker-2. Klf1H350R/- mice exhibit severe hemolysis without thalassemia. RNA-seq demonstrated loss of expression of genes encoding transmembrane and cytoskeletal proteins, but not globins. ChIP-seq showed no change in DNA-binding specificity, but a global reduction in affinity, which was confirmed using recombinant proteins and in vitro binding assays. This study provides new insights into how linker mutations in zinc finger transcription factors result in different phenotypes to those caused by loss-of-function mutations.
