ETS-core binding factor: a common composite motif in antigen receptor gene enhancers.
A tripartite domain of the murine immunoglobulin mu heavy-chain enhancer contains the muA and muB elements that bind ETS proteins and the muE3 element that binds leucine zipper-containing basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH-zip) factors. Analysis of the corresponding region of the human mu enhancer revealed high conservation of the muA and muB motifs but a striking absence of the muE3 element. Instead...
متن کاملGlucocorticoid-receptor interactions. Discrimination between glucocorticoid agonists and antagonists by means of receptor-binding kinetics.
The kinetics of binding to the molybdate-stabilized glucocorticoid receptor of rat thymus cytosol were determined at 0 degrees C for a number of glucocorticoid agonists and antagonists. Equilibrium constants derived from the rate constants for association and dissociation were in good agreement with those determined directly or by competition under equilibrium conditions. Kinetics parameters fo...
متن کاملDirected Blocking of TGF-β Receptor I Binding Site Using Tailored Peptide Segments to Inhibit its Signaling Pathway
Background: TGF-β isoforms play crucial roles in diverse cellular processes. Therefore, targeting and inhibiting TGF-β signaling pathway provides a potential therapeutic opportunity. TGF-β isoforms bind and bring the receptors (TβRII and TβRI) together to form a signaling complex in an ordered manner. Objectives: Herein, an antagonistic variant of TGF-β (AnTβ)...
متن کاملAF-2-dependent potentiation of CCAAT enhancer binding protein beta-mediated transcriptional activation by glucocorticoid receptor.
We report glucocorticoid-dependent induction of transcription from the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene promoter proximal regulatory region in the absence of glucocorticoid response elements and independent of the ability of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) to bind DNA. Examination of the thymidine kinase promoter localized glucocorticoid responsiveness to a binding site for CCAAT enhance...
متن کاملInhibition of glucocorticoid receptor binding by nitric oxide.
Septic shock is a dangerous condition with high mortality rates. In sepsis, the inducible form of nitric oxide (NO) synthase is induced, releasing high amounts of NO. Glucocorticoids have potent anti-inflammatory properties and are very effective in inhibiting the induction of this enzyme if administered before the shock onset. It is known that glucocorticoid receptor (GR) has critical cysteine...
