Target Background

Function
Acts as a transcription factor required for formation of the pharyngeal primordium. Binds to the consensus sequence 5'-T[AG]TT[TG][AG][TC]-3' with variations of the sequence affecting onset of target gene expression. Activates a wide array of pharyngeal genes including ceh-22 and myo-2 and represses ectodermal genes lin-26 and elt-3, ensuring pharyngeal cell fate. Required for recruitment of htz-1 to a subset of pharyngeal promoters to ensure gene activation and also acts synergistically with tbx-2 in pharyngeal development. Acts in the regulation of diet-restriction-mediated longevity by increasing expression of sod-1, sod-2, sod-4 and sod-5 but not sod-3. Positively regulates the expression of the transcription factor hlh-6 in the pharyngeal gland. May regulate gene expression in the intestine.
Gene References into Functions
  1. results suggest that PHA-4 employs feed-forward loops to fine-tune gene expression and instil robustness in the system during energy crisis. PMID: 25504288
  2. these results suggest that Pol II recruitment, in addition to chromatin opening, is an important feature of PHA-4 pioneer factor activity. PMID: 26089518
  3. PHA-4 binding and activation of pharyngeally expressed promoters was restricted to a subset of pharyngeal cells and excluded from the intestine. PMID: 20714352
  4. features of PHA-4 response elements PMID: 20623595
  5. Thousands of binding sites for PHA-4 during formation of the embryonic pharynx and a role for this factor during the starvation response, were identified. PMID: 20174564
  6. data suggest that PHA-4 and DAF-12 endow the pharynx with transcriptional plasticity to respond to diverse developmental and physiological cues PMID: 15375261
  7. The transcription factor PHA-4, functions together with various cis-regulatory elements in target genes to regulate spatial and temporal patterning during development of the pharynx. PMID: 15693952
  8. the PHA-4 amino terminus is essential for PHA-4 function in vivo, possibly as a transactivation domain, and can compensate for loss of the carboxyl terminus PMID: 16127716
  9. restriction of early blastomeres to the pharyngeal fate depends on both repression of ectodermal genes and activation of pharyngeal genes by PHA-4 PMID: 17250823
  10. role of PHA-4 in lifespan determination is specific for dietary restriction, because it is not required for the increased longevity caused by other genetic pathways that regulate ageing PMID: 17476212
  11. C. elegans pha-4 encodes a FoxA transcription factor that is required to establish the foregut in embryos and to control growth and longevity after birth. PMID: 18804378
