Protein-protein interactions in the regulation of WRKY transcription factors.
It has been almost 20 years since the first report of a WRKY transcription factor, SPF1, from sweet potato. Great progress has been made since then in establishing the diverse biological roles of WRKY transcription factors in plant growth, development, and responses to biotic and abiotic stress. Despite the functional diversity, almost all analyzed WRKY proteins recognize the TTGACC/T W-box seq...
متن کاملTranscription factors in DNA replication.
Accumulating evidence suggests the involvement of transcription factors in the regulation of DNA replication in eukaryotic cells. Almost all eukaryotic DNA viruses contain binding sites for transcription factors which function as auxiliary elements for DNA replication initiation at replication origins, and, indeed, the binding of transcription factors to these elements has been shown to stimula...
متن کاملDynamic force spectroscopy of protein-DNA interactions by unzipping DNA.
We demonstrate the first site-specific single-molecule characterization of the prominent activation barrier for the disruption of a protein-DNA binding complex. We achieved this new capability by combining dynamic force spectroscopy with unzipping force analysis of protein association and used the combination to investigate restriction enzyme binding to specific DNA sites. Analysis revealed lif...
متن کاملStereochemical basis of DNA bending by transcription factors.
Superstructure-formation of DNA plays an important role in transcription regulation as well as in chromatin formation. To understand the stereochemical basis of DNA bending by proteins we analysed the structural characteristics of dinucleotide steps which occur at the site where DNA is bent upon binding a transcription factor. When DNA is considerably bent in a crystal structure the bending is ...
متن کاملModulation of DNA binding by gene-specific transcription factors.
The transcription of many genes, particularly in prokaryotes, is controlled by transcription factors whose activity can be modulated by controlling their DNA binding affinity. Understanding the molecular mechanisms by which DNA binding affinity is regulated is important, but because forming definitive conclusions usually requires detailed structural information in combination with data from ext...
