The region in a subunit of the Aspergillus CCAAT-binding protein similar to the HAP4p-recruiting domain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Hap5p is not essential for transcriptional enhancement.

چکیده
The CCAAT-binding complex in Aspergillus species, known as the Hap complex, consists of at least three subunits, HapB, HapC, and HapE. Each Hap subunit contains an evolutionarily conserved core domain. In this study, a series of the truncated gene, which encodes the HapE subunit of Aspergillus oryzae, was constructed to survey the regions essential for the transcriptional enhancement of fungal genes. It was revealed that the non-conserved regions and the conserved region similar to the Hap4p recruiting domain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were not necessary for Hap complex-mediated transcriptional enhancement.

The HAP2 subunit of yeast CCAAT transcriptional activator contains adjacent domains for subunit association and DNA recognition: model for the HAP2/3/4 complex.
Budding yeast HAP2 is required in concert with HAP3 and HAP4 to form a heterotrimeric CCAAT-binding transcriptional activation complex at the UAS2 element of CYC1. Functional homologs of HAP2 and HAP3 have been conserved in HeLa cells where HAP2 activity corresponds to a chromatographic fraction designated CP1B. Here, we describe deletion and codon insertion mutagenesis of the Saccharomyces cer...
متن کاملAnCF, the CCAAT binding complex of Aspergillus nidulans, contains products of the hapB, hapC, and hapE genes and is required for activation by the pathway-specific regulatory gene amdR.
CCAAT binding factors (CBFs) positively regulating the expression of the amdS gene (encoding acetamidase) and two penicillin biosynthesis genes (ipnA and aatA) have been previously found in Aspergillus nidulans. The factors were called AnCF and PENR1, respectively. Deletion of the hapC gene, encoding a protein with significant similarity to Hap3p of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, eliminated both AnC...

Protein synthesis is one of the most complex cellular processes, involving numerous translation components that interact in multiple sequential steps. The most complex stage in protein synthesis is the initiation process. The basal set of factors required for translation initiation has been determined, and biochemical, genetic, and structural studies are now beginning to reveal details of their...
متن کاملTranscriptional activators HAP/NF-Y rescue a cytochrome c oxidase defect in yeast and human cells.
Cell survival and energy production requires a functional mitochondrial respiratory chain. Biogenesis of cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the last enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, is a very complicated process and requires the assistance of a large number of accessory factors. Defects in COX assembly alter cellular respiration and produce severe human encephalomyopathies. Mutations in ...

Interferon is a protein secreted by eucaryotic cells following stimulation by viruses, bacteria, and many other immunogenes. Recent medical studies indicate that interferons have effective role in the treatment of virus infections, immunodeficiency and certain types of cancer such as hairy cell leukaemia (HCL). The aim of the present study is to apply yeast strain for secreting human IFNα2b fol...
