Differential gene regulation by selective association of transcriptional coactivators and bZIP DNA-binding domains.
bZIP DNA-binding domains are targets for viral and cellular proteins that function as transcriptional coactivators. Here, we show that MBF1 and the related Chameau and HBO1 histone acetylases interact with distinct subgroups of bZIP proteins, whereas pX does not discriminate. Selectivity of Chameau and MBF1 for bZIP proteins is mediated by residues in the basic region that lie on the opposite s...
متن کاملPost-Transcriptional Gene Regulation by MicroRNA and RNA-Binding Protein
Recent advanced studies have demonstrated that post-transcriptional gene regulation is involved in many aspects of biological processes and in the pathogenesis of various types of disorders, such as neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. In addition to transcriptional regulation, spatially and temporally regulated gene expression is achieved by the post-transcriptional con...
متن کاملSelective DNA bending by a variety of bZIP proteins.
We have investigated DNA bending by bZIP family proteins that can bind to the AP-1 site. DNA bending is widespread, although not universal, among members of this family. Different bZIP protein dimers induced distinct DNA bends. The DNA bend angles ranged from virtually 0 to greater than 40 degrees as measured by phasing analysis and were oriented toward both the major and the minor grooves at t...
متن کاملConformational alteration of Oct-1 upon DNA binding dictates selectivity in differential interactions with related transcriptional coactivators.
VP16 (termed VP16-H here) of herpes simplex virus (HSV) belongs to a family of related regulatory proteins which includes VP16-B of bovine herpesvirus (BHV). We show that VP16-B, while also being a powerful transactivator of transcription dependent on Oct-1 binding sites in its target promoters, has virtually no activity on a defined VP16-H-responsive, octamer-containing target promoter. While ...
متن کاملTranscriptional repression of the alpha-subunit gene by androgen receptor occurs independently of DNA binding but requires the DNA-binding and ligand-binding domains of the receptor.
The pituitary glycoprotein hormones LH and FSH regulate the reproductive cycle and are sensitive to feedback by gonadal steroids. The common alpha-subunit shared by these hormones is transcriptionally repressed by androgen receptor (AR) in the presence of its ligand dihydrotestosterone. This identifies at least one mechanism that contributes to AR-dependent suppression of gonadotropin synthesis...
