Acetylation of Stat1 modulates NF- B activity
Acetylation of signaling molecules can lead to apoptosis or differentiation of carcinoma cells. The molecular mechanisms underlying these processes and the biological role of enzymes mediating the transfer or removal of an acetyl-group are currently under intense investigation. Our study shows that Stat1 is an acetylated protein. Stat1 acetylation depends on the balance between Stat1-associated...
متن کاملAnalysis of the mouse Splotch-delayed mutation indicates that the Pax-3 paired domain can influence homeodomain DNA-binding activity.
The murine Pax-3 protein contains two DNA-binding domains, a paired domain and a homeodomain, and alterations in the Pax-3 gene are responsible for the neural tube defects observed in the Splotch (Sp) mouse mutant. Of five Sp alleles, Splotch-delayed (Spd) is the only one that encodes a full-length Pax-3 protein, containing a single glycine-to-arginine substitution within the paired domain. To ...
متن کامل07-P017 Sumoylation modulates Spalt activity
embryogenesis, the ventral telencephalon (VT) plays a major role in the early development of these tracts. First, two populations of pioneer neurons allow corticothalamic (CTA) and thalamocortical axons (TCA) to enter the VT. Secondly, the VT forms a permissive corridor which guides TCAs through the MGE. Finally, thalamortical and corticothalamic axons guide each other once they have met in the...
متن کاملStructure of p73 DNA-binding domain tetramer modulates p73 transactivation.
The transcription factor p73 triggers developmental pathways and overlaps stress-induced p53 transcriptional pathways. How p53-family response elements determine and regulate transcriptional specificity remains an unsolved problem. In this work, we have determined the first crystal structures of p73 DNA-binding domain tetramer bound to response elements with spacers of different length. The str...
متن کاملCdc6p modulates the structure and DNA binding activity of the origin recognition complex in vitro.
An interaction between the origin recognition complex (ORC) and Cdc6p is the first and a key step in the initiation of chromosomal DNA replication. We describe the assembly of an origin-dependent complex containing ORC and Cdc6p from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Cdc6p increases the DNA binding specificity of ORC by inhibiting non-specific DNA binding of ORC. Cdc6p induces a concomitant change in t...
