The receptor tyrosine kinase Flk-1 is essential for embryonic blood
vessel development and for tumor angiogenesis. To identify upstream
transcriptional regulators of Flk-1, the gene regulatory elements that mediate endothelium-specific expression in mouse embryos
were characterized. By mutational analysis, binding sites for
SCL/Tal-1, GATA, and Ets transcription factors located in the
Flk-1 enhancer were identified as critical elements for the endothelium-specific Flk-1 gene expression in transgenic
mice. c-Ets1, a transcription factor that is coexpressed with
Flk-1 during embryonic development and tumor angiogenesis,
activated the Flk-1 promoter via 2 binding sites. One of
these sites was required for Flk-1 promoter function
in the embryonic vasculature. These results provide the first evidence
that SCL/Tal-1, GATA, and Ets transcription factors act upstream of
Flk-1 in a combinatorial fashion to determine embryonic
blood vessel formation and are key regulators not only of the
hematopoietic program, but also of vascular development.
