Abstract


Members of the forkhead-box (Fox) family of transcription factors are present in many eukaryotes. More than 100 such proteins that share homology in the winged-helix DNA-binding domain have been identified in higher eukaryotes. This family of transcription factors is implicated in the regulation of a variety of cellular processes, including the cell cycle, apoptosis, DNA repair, stress resistance and metabolism. A subfamily of Fox proteins are required to activate expression of the genes encoding B-type cyclins, Cdc25 and Polo-like kinase (Plk) during the mitotic cell cycle and meiosis in organisms from yeast to mammals. These proteins are activators of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1). Cdk1 and Plk phosphorylate Fox and its associated proteins at different sites, resulting in activation or repression of Fox transcriptional activity, depending on the target genes. In addition to their documented transcriptional functions, Fox proteins are involved in the regulation of pre-mRNA processing, at least in yeast. In this review, we will focus on the role of Fox proteins in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in addition to the role of FoxM1 in mammals in the cell cycle and in pre-mRNA processing, as revealed in recent studies.
