چکیده

Using tiled microarrays covering the entire human genome, we identify approximately 5800 target sites for p63, a p53 homolog essential for stratified epithelial development. p63 targets are enriched for genes involved in cell adhesion, proliferation, death, and signaling pathways. The quality of the derived DNA sequence motif for p63 targets correlates with binding strength binding in vivo, but only a small minority of motifs in the genome is bound by p63. Conversely, many p63 targets have motif scores expected for random genomic regions. Thus, p63 binding in vivo is highly selective and often requires additional factors beyond the simple protein-DNA interaction. There is a significant, but complex, relationship between p63 target sites and p63-responsive genes, with DeltaNp63 isoforms being linked to transcriptional activation. Many p63 binding regions are evolutionarily conserved and/or associated with sequence motifs for other transcription factors, suggesting that a substantial portion of p63 sites is biologically relevant.

A C-terminal inhibitory domain controls the activity of p63 by an intramolecular mechanism.

The human genome is far smaller than originally estimated, and one explanation is that alternative splicing creates greater proteomic complexity than a simple count of open reading frames would suggest. The p53 homologue p63, for example, is a tetrameric transcription factor implicated in epithelial development and expressed as at least six isoforms with widely differing transactivation potenti...

Evaluation of MYB93 and MAD8 Genes in Transgenic and Non-Transgenic Rice

Increasing drought tolerance, especially in rice, which is one of the most important crops in Asia, is necessary. Transcription factors are specific sequence DNA-binding proteins that are capable of activating or suppressing transcription. These proteins regulate gene expression levels by binding to cis regulatory elements in the promoter of target genes to control various biological processes ...

Genome-Wide Mapping Indicates That p73 and p63 Co-Occupy Target Sites and Have Similar DNA-Binding Profiles In Vivo

BACKGROUND The p53 homologs, p63 and p73, share approximately 85% amino acid identity in their DNA-binding domains, but they have distinct biological functions. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and high-resolution tiling arrays covering the human genome, we identify p73 DNA binding sites on a genome-wide level in ME180 human cervical carcinoma cells. Strikingly, the p73 ...
