Characterization of SAP-1, a protein recruited by serum response factor to the c-fos serum response element. 总被引:114,自引:0,他引:114
We used a yeast genetic screen to isolate cDNAs that encode a protein, SRF accessory protein-1 (SAP-1), that is recruited to the c-fos serum response element (SRE) as part of a ternary complex that includes serum response factor (SRF). SAP-1 requires DNA-bound SRF for ternary complex formation and makes extensive DNA contacts to the 5' side of SRF, but does not bind DNA autonomously. Ternary complex formation by SAP-1 requires only the DNA-binding domain of SRF, which can be replaced by that of the related yeast protein MCM1. We isolated cDNAs encoding two forms of SAP-1 protein, SAP-1a and SAP-1b, which differ at their C termini. Both SAP-1 proteins contain three regions of striking homology with the elk-1 protein, including an N-terminal ets domain. Ternary complex formation by SAP-1 requires both the ets domain and a second conserved region 50 amino acids to its C-terminal side. SAP-1 has similar DNA binding properties to the previously characterized HeLa cell protein p62/TCF. 相似文献

Induction of the human c-fos proto-oncogene by mitogens depends on the formation of a ternary complex by p62TCF with the serum response factor (SRF) and the serum response element (SRE). We demonstrate that Elk-1, a protein closely related to p62TCF in function, is a nuclear target of two members of the MAP kinase family, ERK1 and ERK2. Phosphorylation of Elk-1 increases the yield of ternary complex in vitro. At least five residues in the C-terminal domain of Elk-1 are phosphorylated upon growth factor stimulation of NIH3T3 cells. These residues are also phosphorylated by purified ERK1 in vitro, as determined by a combination of phosphopeptide sequencing and 2-D peptide mapping. Conversion of two of these phospho-acceptor sites to alanine impairs the formation of ternary complexes by the resulting Elk-1 proteins. Removal of these serine residues also drastically diminishes activation of the c-fos promoter in epidermal growth factor-treated cells. Analogous mutations at other sites impair activation to a lesser extent without affecting ternary complex formation in vitro. Our results indicate that phosphorylation regulates ternary complex formation by Elk-1, which is a prerequisite for the manifestation of its transactivation potential at the c-fos SRE. 相似文献

The Ets-related Elk-1 protein can bind to purine-rich DNA target sites in a sequence specific fashion and, in addition, can form a ternary complex with the c-fos serum response element (SRE) and the serum response factor (SRF). We demonstrate that Elk-1 can readily interchange between its different interaction partners. The amino terminal ETS-domain of Elk-1 was shown to be necessary and sufficient for direct DNA-binding activity. For ternary complex formation with the SRE and SRF, both the Elk-1 ETS-domain as well as flanking sequences up to amino acid 169 were required. Removal of sequences between the ETS-domain and amino acids 137-169 did not abolish ternary complex formation. This suggests the Elk-1 region spanning amino acids 137-169 to contain a protein-protein interaction domain. Furthermore, we have shown that a single amino acid exchange introduced into the ETS-domain can drastically alter the direct DNA-binding affinity of Elk-1 without severely affecting SRF-assisted binding to the SRE. Thus, Elk-1 requires different propensities of the ETS-domain to exert its different modes of DNA sequence recognition. 相似文献
