چکیده
Replication factor C (RFC) is a pentameric complex of five distinct subunits that functions as a clamp loader, facilitating the loading of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) onto DNA during replication and repair. More recently the large subunit of RFC, RFC (p140), has been found to interact with the retinoblastoma (Rb) tumor suppressor and the CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBP alpha) transcription factor. We now report that RFC (p140) associates with histone deacetylase activity and interacts with histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1). This complex is functional and when targeted to promoters as a Gal4 fusion, RFC (p140) is a strong, deacetylase-dependent repressor of transcription. Further analysis revealed that RFC (p140) contains two distinct transcriptional repression domains. Moreover, both of these domains interact separately with HDAC1.

Class I Histone Deacetylase HDAC1 and WRN RECQ Helicase Contribute Additively to Protect Replication Forks upon Hydroxyurea-induced Arrest.
The WRN helicase/exonuclease is mutated in Werner syndrome of genomic instability and premature aging. WRN-depleted fibroblasts, although remaining largely viable, have a reduced capacity to maintain replication forks active during a transient hydroxyurea-induced arrest. A strand exchange protein, RAD51, is also required for replication fork maintenance, and here we show that recruitment of RAD...
متن کاملThe transcriptional repressor cAMP response element modulator alpha interacts with histone deacetylase 1 to repress promoter activity.
Transcriptional repression is a fundamental mechanism of gene regulation. cAMP response element (CRE) modulator (CREM)alpha is an ubiquitously expressed transcription factor and a counterpart of the activator CREB. In T cells, CREM is responsible for the termination of the IL-2 expression by a chromatin-dependent mechanism. We demonstrate in this study that CREMalpha associates with histone dea...
متن کاملThe p65 (RelA) subunit of NF-kappaB interacts with the histone deacetylase (HDAC) corepressors HDAC1 and HDAC2 to negatively regulate gene expression.
Regulation of NF-kappaB transactivation function is controlled at several levels, including interactions with coactivator proteins. Here we show that the transactivation function of NF-kappaB is also regulated through interaction of the p65 (RelA) subunit with histone deacetylase (HDAC) corepressor proteins. Our results show that inhibition of HDAC activity with trichostatin A (TSA) results in ...
متن کاملThe adenovirus protein Gam1 interferes with sumoylation of histone deacetylase 1.
The adenovirus early gene product Gam1 is crucial for virus replication and induces certain cellular genes by inactivating histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1). We demonstrate that Gam1 (i) destroys promyelocitic leukemia nuclear bodies, (ii) delocalizes SUMO-1 into the cytoplasm and (iii) influences the SUMO-1 pathway. In addition, we show that Gam1 counteracts HDAC1 sumoylation both in vivo and in v...
متن کاملPrimary macrophages rely on histone deacetylase 1 and 2 expression to induce type I interferon in response to gammaherpesvirus infection.
Type I interferon is induced shortly following viral infection and represents a first line of host defense against a majority of viral pathogens. Not surprisingly, both replication and latency of gammaherpesviruses, ubiquitous cancer-associated pathogens, are attenuated by type I interferon, although the mechanism of attenuation remains poorly characterized. Gammaherpesviruses also target histo...
