HMGN1 is a nuclear protein that binds to nucleosomes and alters the accessibility of regulatory factors to their chromatin targets. To elucidate its biological function and identify specific HMGN1 target genes, we gener-ated Hmgn1–⁄– mice. DNA microarray analysis of Hmgn1+⁄+ and Hmgn1–⁄– embryonic fibroblasts identified N-cadherin as a potential HMGN1 gene target. | ềFEBS Journal Chromosomal protein HMGN1 modulates the expression of N-cadherin Yaffa R.

To elucidate its biological function and identify specific HMGN1 target genes we generated Hmgnl- - mice. DNA microarray analysis of Hmgn1 and Hmgnl- - embryonic fibroblasts identified N-cadherin as a potential HMGN1 gene target. RT-PCR and western blot analysis confirmed a linkage between HMGN1 expression and N-cadherin levels. In both transformed and primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts MEFs HMGN1 acted as negative regulator of N-cadherin expression. Likewise the N-cadherin levels in early embryos of Hmgnl- - mice were higher than those of their Hmgn1 littermates. Loss of HMGN1 increased the adhesiveness motility and aggregation potential of Hmgnl- - MEFs a phenotype consistent with increased levels of N-cadherin protein. Re-expression of wildtype HMGN1 but not of the mutant HMGN1 protein that does not bind to chromatin in Hmgnl- - MEFs decreased the levels of N-cadherin and restored the .
