英文摘要	TBX5, as a member of the T-box-containing transcription factor family, encodes a protein of 518 amino acids and is expressed in the embryonic heart and developing limb tissues.1 The coding region of TBX5 cDNA is 1.5 kb with eight exons including the N-terminal portion, the DNA binding domain and C-terminal region. We reported that the abnormality in transcription level of the TBX5 gene might be the mechanism underlying human simple congenital heart disease in the absence of TBX5 mutations.2 So far, over 37 mutations in the TBX5 gene have been identified in patients with Holt-Oram syndrome,3 an autosomal dominant condition characterized by congenital cardiac malformations and upper limb anomalies. G80R, R237Q and R237W mutations reduce the TBX5 DNA-binding ability with target genes, leading to decreased transcriptional activation of TBX5 target genes and a loss of synergistic transcriptional activation with NKx2-5.4 In contrast, the molecular mechanism by which most TBX5 mutations at the C-terminal region cause Holt-Oram syndrome remains unclear. Moreover, the mechanism underlying the transactivation by the C-terminus of TBX5 is largely unknown. Thus, the sequence-based study of the C-terminus of TBX5 is needed for a better understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying TBX5 mutation-related Holt-Oram syndrome and of TBX5 function as a transcriptional activator.
