AGGF1 is a human gene that functions as an angiogenic factor with G-patch and forkhead-associated domain. [5] This gene is predominantly expressed in activated, plump endothelial cells and acts to regulate angiogenesis and vascular development.[6] AGGF1 is known to interact with a wide range of proteins involved in vascular development.[7] Mutations to AGGF1 have been implicated in multiple cancers and is known to causes the rare cogenital condition Klippel-Treanaunay syndrome. [6][8][9]

Gene[edit]

The AGGF1 gene promoter does not contain a TATA box and contains 2 transcription start sites that are -367 and -364 base pairs ahead of the base translation start site.[10] Notably, the gene promoter contains more than 50 CpG islands, which makes it a DNA methylation target.[10] AGGF1 contains 2 repressor sites and 2 activator sites.[10] Expression of AGGF1 is regulated by GATA1 binding upstream of the AGGF1 promoter at -295 and -300.[6][10][11] In order for full gene expression, both of the activator sites must be bound by the transcription factors. [10]

The gene was originally named VG5Q, which indicated that it was a vascular gene on chromosome 5, but the name was changed to more accurately reflect its function, instead of just location. [12]

There are pseudogenes related to AGGF1 located on chromosomes 3, 4, 10 and 16. [13]

This gene is conserved across many species, such as chimpanzee, Rhesus monkey, dog, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, and frog. [13] There are 212 organisms that have genes which are orthologs to AGGF1.

Protein[edit]

The mRNA transcript contains 14 exons and 34 807 nucleotides.[2]

The AGGF1 protein contains a coiled coil domain and an OCRE domain at the N terminus.[14] There are 714 amino acids present in the protein.[14] The G-patch domain is located at amino acids 619-663 while the forkhead-associated domain is located at amino acids 435-508. [14]

Expression[edit]

AGGF1 is largely expressed during early embryonic vein specification, and expression is increased when endothelial cells are activated.[14][15] While AGGF1 is largely functional in endothelial, vascular smooth muscle cells, and osteoblasts, it also has activity in mast cells, cardiac cells, Kupffer cells and hematopoietic stem cells. [12] [15] [16][17] AGGF1 mRNA has been detected in the heart, kidneys and limbs. [14] The proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells is inhibited when AGGF1 is expressed.[18] It has been found that AGGF1 is highly expressed in some malignant tumours.[8] In vitro models have shown that AGGF1 localizes to cell periphery and directly outside of the cell.[17]

Depending on the mutation type, AGGF1 mutations can be lethal in either the heterozygous or homozygous genotype due to its haploinsufficiency. Heterozygous mutations can cause fatality due to hemorrhaging while homozygous mutations can prevent proper stem cell differentiation. [19]

Functions[edit]

AGGF1 functions to regulate angiogenesis and vascular development. [6] Gene ontology has also implicated AGGF1 in cell adhesion, positive regulation of angiogenesis and endothelial cell proliferation.[13] Additionally, AGGF1 has been shown to protect against inflammation and ischemic injuries.[16] During embryongenesis, AGGF1 is required for hematopoietic stem cell specification and the differentiation of hematopoietic and endothelial cell lineages.[19] Specifically, it regulates VE cadherin by inhibiting the phosphorylation of the cadherin and increasing its presence in the plasma membrane of endothelial cells.[6] It has been found that this gene is critical to the specification of veins and multipotent hemanigioblasts, anti-inflammation, tumour angiogenesis, and inhibition of vascular permeability.[20] Additionally, it has been shown to activate autophagy in specific cell types, such as endothelial cells, cardiac HL1 and H9C2 cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells. [14] [6][20]

Interactions[edit]

AGGF1 directly and indirectly interacts with many proteins. There are direct interactions between AGGF1 and TNFSF12, another secreted angiogenic factor, that leads to increased angiogenesis.[21] AGGF1 acts upstream of hemangioblast genes such as scl, fil1, and etsrp. [7] AGGF1 acts similarly to VEGF - another gene implicated in vascular growth. [7] Additionally, AGGF1 is known to activate catalytic and regulatory subunits of PI3K. [6] This leads to downstream activation of AKT, GSK3b and p70S6K signalling pathway which leads to vein specification and angiogenesis. [7][6] AGGF1 also interacts with vein specific markers such at flt4, dab2, and ephB4.[22] Ccl2 has also been shown to interact with AGGF1 in hepatocytes through blocking NF-κB/p65 from binding to Ccl2.[23] AGGF1 activity is eliminated when Elk is overexpressed.[18] AGGF1 regulates autophagy by regulating expression of JNK genes.[18] SMAD7 and Aggf1 directly interact in the liver to inhibit fibrogenesis. [16] The presence of DNMT3b will repress AGGF1 by acting on the promoter region of the gene.[16]

Clinical Relevance[edit]

Heterogenous mutations in this gene causing deregulation of expression can lead to the vascular malformations associated with Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome.[6][22][10] AGGF1 was the third human haploinsufficient gene identified.[6] This is very significant because this means that individuals who have even one mutant allele may have Klippel-Treanaunay syndrome. Frequent haemorrhages and increased vascular permeability has been seen in individuals who are heterozygous for Aggf1. [6] A translocation between the chromosome 5 q-arm at region 13 in band 3 and the chromosome 11 p-arm at region 15 in band 1 has been implicated in KTS. [2] This translocation affects the AGGF1 promoter so there is a 3 fold increase in protein production. [2] Single nucleotide polymorphisms in intron 11 and exon 7 were associated with KTS susceptibility even though neither of these SNPs resulted in an amino acid change. [2] At one point, the E133K allele was thought to be a mutational hotspot - due to altered phosophorylation - causing KTS, but it has since been found as much as 3.3% of the population are carriers for the mutation. [21][24]

AGGF1 has also been implicated in treatment after vascular smooth muscle cell damage due to coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. [18] By blocking vascular permeability and regulating vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching, AGGF1 protein therapy is currently being investigated as a new method of treating both of these diseases. [18]

Abberant AGGF1 has been implicated in multiple cancers and functions in tumour initiation and progression.[9] For example, both hepatocellular carcinoma and gastric cancer survivability is related to the levels of AGGF1 expression in tumors. [8][9] AGGF1 has been found to have higher expression in tumours than the surrounding tissues, and higher levels of AGGF1 are associated with a poor patient prognosis.[8][9]

Possible Topics: 1. Aggf1 2. Ced9 3. Chromosome jumping 4. Nucleasome Article Evaluation - Single nucleotide Polymorphism This article has a C rating and it a part of The WikiProjects Genetics, Molecular and Cell Biology and Human Genetic History. The article uses very specific examples that appear biased towards certain areas of research (ex. Alzheimer's research) but these specific examples help to improve the quality of the article because they demonstrate the relevance of SNPs in common diseases. However, the language used in these examples may be too complicated or scientific for the average person reading a Wikipedia article to understand. There is a few grammatical error in the article. There are comma splices which make reading the article choppy and awkward. The article could be improved by adding a section on how SNPs arise in the genome. It focused heavily on the impact of SNPs on human disease but it failed to explain where SNPs come from and why they are present in the genome. The diagram describing the different types of SNPs would be helpful in clarifying the types of SNPs for someone who was unfamiliar with them. When I clicked on citation [5], I found that it was not a primary research article and therefore it should not be used as a citation in a Wikipedia article.

Great evaluation. Keep it up! AdamCF87 (talk) 14:31, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
