Auto-inhibition of Ets-1 is counteracted by DNA binding cooperativity with core-binding factor alpha2.
Auto-inhibition is a common transcriptional control mechanism that is well characterized in the regulatory transcription factor Ets-1. Autoinhibition of Ets-1 DNA binding works through an inhibitory module that exists in two conformations. DNA binding requires a change in the inhibitory module from the packed to disrupted conformation. This structural switch provides a mechanism to tightly regu...
متن کاملInhibition of Ets-1 DNA binding and ternary complex formation between Ets-1, NF-kappaB, and DNA by a designed DNA-binding ligand.
Sequence-specific pyrrole-imidazole polyamides can be designed to interfere with transcription factor binding and to regulate gene expression, both in vitro and in living cells. Polyamides bound adjacent to the recognition sites for TBP, Ets-1, and LEF-1 in the human immunodeficiency virus, type 1 (HIV-1), long terminal repeat inhibited transcription in cell-free assays and viral replication in...
متن کاملPhosphorylation represses Ets-1 DNA binding by reinforcing autoinhibition.
Phosphorylation of transcription factors is a key link between cell signaling and the control of gene expression. Here we report that phosphorylation regulates DNA binding of the Ets-1 transcription factor by reinforcing an autoinhibitory mechanism. Quantitative DNA-binding assays show that calcium-dependent phosphorylation inhibits Ets-1 DNA binding 50-fold. The four serines that mediate this ...
متن کاملSequence specific DNA binding of Ets-1 transcription factor: molecular dynamics study on the Ets domain--DNA complexes.
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for Ets-1 ETS domain-DNA complexes were performed to investigate the mechanism of sequence-specific recognition of the GGAA DNA core by the ETS domain. Employing the crystal structure of the Ets-1 ETS domain-DNA complex as a starting structure we carried out MD simulations of: (i). the complex between Ets-1 ETS domain and a 14 base-pair DNA containing GGAA co...
متن کاملGABPα Binding to Overlapping ETS and CRE DNA Motifs Is Enhanced by CREB1: Custom DNA Microarrays
To achieve proper spatiotemporal control of gene expression, transcription factors cooperatively assemble onto specific DNA sequences. The ETS domain protein monomer of GABPα and the B-ZIP domain protein dimer of CREB1 cooperatively bind DNA only when the ETS ((C)/GCGGAA GT: ) and CRE ( GT: GACGTCAC) motifs overlap precisely, producing the ETS↔CRE motif ((C)/GCGGAA GT: GACGTCAC). We designed a ...
