Protein flexibility directs DNA recognition by the papillomavirus E2 proteins
Although DNA flexibility is known to play an important role in DNA-protein interactions, the importance of protein flexibility is less well understood. Here, we show that protein dynamics are important in DNA recognition using the well-characterized human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6 E2 protein as a model system. We have compared the DNA binding properties of the HPV 6 E2 DNA binding domain (DBD...
متن کاملBrd4-independent transcriptional repression function of the papillomavirus e2 proteins.
The papillomavirus E2 protein is a critical viral regulatory protein with transcription, DNA replication, and genome maintenance functions. We have previously identified the cellular bromodomain protein Brd4 as a major E2-interacting protein and established that it participates in tethering bovine papillomavirus type 1 E2 and viral genomes to host cell mitotic chromosomes. We have also shown th...
متن کاملEvolutionary and biophysical relationships among the papillomavirus E2 proteins.
Infection by human papillomavirus (HPV) may result in clinical conditions ranging from benign warts to invasive cancer. The HPV E2 protein represses oncoprotein transcription and is required for viral replication. HPV E2 binds to palindromic DNA sequences of highly conserved four base pair sequences flanking an identical length variable 'spacer'. E2 proteins directly contact the conserved but n...
متن کاملConserved interaction of the papillomavirus E2 transcriptional activator proteins with human and yeast TFIIB proteins.
Papillomavirus early gene expression is regulated by the virus gene-encoded E2 proteins. The best-characterized E2 protein, encoded by bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV-1), has been shown to interact with basal transcription factor IIB (TFIIB) and the TATA binding protein basal transcription factor (N. M. Rank and P. F. Lambert, J. Virol. 69:6323-6334, 1995). We demonstrate that the potent E2 t...
متن کاملThe papillomavirus E2 DNA binding domain.
The DNA binding domain of the E2 master regulator from papillomaviruses is the primary effector for most the essential activities controlled by this protein. In this review we focus on the properties of the DNA binding domain of human papillomavirus strain 16 in solution, integrating structure, dynamics, folding, stability, conformational equilibria, and DNA binding mechanism. We discuss the re...
