GATA4 is expressed in visceral endoderm and definitive endoderm and subsequently is enriched in the mid and posterior gut (inferred from mouse embryos in Arceci et al. 1993, Rojas et al. 2009, Rojas et al. 2010). Expression of GATA4 is activated by NODAL signaling (McLean et al. 2007, Vallier et al. 2009) through the binding of phosphorylated SMAD2 and SMAD3 to the GATA4 promoter (inferred from human pluripotent stem cells in Brown et al. 2011, Chia et al. 2019). FOXA2 (inferred from mouse homologs) and GATA6 (Chia et al. 2019), other key regulators of endoderm formation, also bind the GATA4 promoter and activate GATA4 transcription.
