XX SF large sequence identity to human MTF-1 [4]; SF acidic region as well as P-rich and S/T-rich region function as activating domains [8]; XX CP testis, liver, kidney, spleen [7]. XX FF binds to metal response elements (MRE), related to Sp1 [2]; FF required for basal transcription of metallothionein I and II genes [6]; FF required for induction of metallothionein by zinc as well as cadmium, copper, nickel and lead [6] [7]; FF involved in regulation of expression of the heavy-chain subunit of the gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase [10]; FF properties may be modulated by intracellular zinc concentration [6]; FF most deletions reduce or abolish activity [8]; FF cells lacking MTF-1 show increased susceptibility to the cytotoxic effects of cadmium or hydrogen peroxide and mouse embryos lacking MTF-1 die in utero at app. day 14 of gestation [10]; FF not only heavy metals, but also oxidative stress (H2O2) or hypoxia lead to increased MTF-1 activity and metallothionein expression [11] [12]; XX MX M01242 V$MTF1_01.
