COMP — SOX9
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Liu et al., Frontiers in bioscience : a journal and virtual library 2007
:
Transcriptional
activation of
cartilage oligomeric matrix protein by
Sox9 , Sox5, and Sox6 transcription factors and CBP/p300 coactivators ...
Sox9 activates
COMP gene expression and this activation is PRE dependent ... Sox9 is required for COMP gene expression during chondrogenesis, since repression of
Sox9 expression using the small interfering RNA approach
inhibited COMP gene expression ... In addition,
activation of
COMP gene expression by
Sox9 requires the participation of transcription factors Sox5 and Sox6 as well as the coactivators CBP and p300 histone acetylase

(Fibrosis) :
In human fetal hepatocytes, this aberrant induction of
SOX9 protein
caused ectopic expression of COL2A1 and
COMP1 that encode extracellular matrix ( ECM ) components normally associated with chondrogenesis
