Alternative definition : BIOCARTA: Corepressors are coregulators that interact with transcriptional silencers
in a variety of pathways such as cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis.
Abnormal corepressor-silencer interactions have been implicated in a variety of human
disease pathways including several types of leukemia. The regulation of the SMRT corepressor
via the p38 and Mek-1 Kinase pathway is represented in this pathway. The EGF receptor
represents one mechanism by which SMRT function is inhibited by the tyrosine kinase
signaling pathway. The MEKK1 and p38 pathways are activated by EGF resulting in cross-regulation
of SMRT. The induction of SMRT phosphorylation by either pathway causes SMRT to unbind
from the transcription factor complexes represented by RXR, RAR, T3R and PLZF. (This
