In our study, we use a multi-pronged synthetic biology approach to demonstrate that the fish homolog of the predominant mammalian osmotic stress transcription factor nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT5) also contributes to the activation of hyperosmolality inducible genes in cells of extremely euryhaline fish. However, in addition to NFAT5 the presence of other strong osmotically inducible signaling mechanisms is required for full activation of osmoregulated tilapia genes.
