Structural basis for DNA recognition by STAT6.
STAT6 participates in classical IL-4/IL-13 signaling and stimulator of interferon genes-mediated antiviral innate immune responses. Aberrations in STAT6-mediated signaling are linked to development of asthma and diseases of the immune system. In addition, STAT6 remains constitutively active in multiple types of cancer. Therefore, targeting STAT6 is an attractive proposition for treating related...
متن کاملStructural basis for peptidoglycan binding by peptidoglycan recognition proteins.
Peptidoglycan (PGN) recognition proteins (PGRPs) are pattern-recognition receptors of the innate immune system that bind and, in some cases, hydrolyze bacterial PGNs. We determined the crystal structure, at 2.30-A resolution, of the C-terminal PGN-binding domain of human PGRP-Ialpha in complex with a muramyl tripeptide representing the core of lysine-type PGNs from Gram-positive bacteria. The p...
متن کاملThe structural basis of differential DNA sequence recognition by restriction–modification controller proteins
Controller (C) proteins regulate the expression of restriction-modification (RM) genes in a wide variety of RM systems. However, the RM system Esp1396I is of particular interest as the C protein regulates both the restriction endonuclease (R) gene and the methyltransferase (M) gene. The mechanism of this finely tuned genetic switch depends on differential binding affinities for the promoters co...
متن کاملStructural basis of DNA quadruplex recognition by an acridine drug.
The crystal structure of a complex between the bimolecular human telomeric quadruplex d(TAGGGTTAGGGT)2 and the experimental anticancer drug BRACO-19, has been determined, to 2.5 A resolution. The binding site for the BRACO-19 molecule is at the interface of two parallel-folded quadruplexes, sandwiched between a G-tetrad surface and a TATA tetrad, and held in the site by networks of water molecu...
متن کاملStructural basis of DNA recognition by p53 tetramers.
The tumor-suppressor protein p53 is among the most effective of the cell's natural defenses against cancer. In response to cellular stress, p53 binds as a tetramer to diverse DNA targets containing two decameric half-sites, thereby activating the expression of genes involved in cell-cycle arrest or apoptosis. Here we present high-resolution crystal structures of sequence-specific complexes betw...
