Nuclear receptors (NRs) regulate gene expression by binding specific DNA sequences consisting of AG[G/T]TCA or AGAACA half site motifs in a variety of configurations. However, those motifs/configurations alone do not adequately explain the diversity of NR function in vivo. Here, a systematic examination of DNA binding specificity by protein-binding microarrays (PBMs) of three closely related human NRs--HNF4α, retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRα) and COUPTF2--reveals an HNF4-specific binding motif (H4-SBM), xxxxCAAAGTCCA, as well as a previously unrecognized polarity in the classical DR1 motif (AGGTCAxAGGTCA) for HNF4α, RXRα and COUPTF2 homodimers. ChIP-seq data indicate that the H4-SBM is uniquely bound by HNF4α but not 10 other NRs in vivo, while NRs PXR, FXRα, Rev-Erbα appear to bind adjacent to H4-SBMs. HNF4-specific DNA recognition and transactivation are mediated by residues Asp69 and Arg76 in the DNA-binding domain; this combination of amino acids is unique to HNF4 among all human NRs. Expression profiling and ChIP data predict ≈ 100 new human HNF4α target genes with an H4-SBM site, including several Co-enzyme A-related genes and genes with links to disease. These results provide important new insights into NR DNA binding.  相似文献

Nuclear receptors (NRs) associate with various coactivator proteins via direct interaction with a short LXXLL motif (also called NR box) that is present among coactivators. Here we identified the critical residues within or outside NR box-2 or -3 of SRC-1, which are required for the optimal interaction with LXR/RXR heterodimers using the yeast one- plus two-hybrid screening system. The critical residues of NR box-2 were broadly located from position −4 to +5 of the NR box (where +1 is the first L of LXXLL motif), whereas those of NR box-3 were located between −1 and +5. We assessed the functional and physical interactions between the isolated NR box-2 mutants and various NRs. Among the NR box-2 mutants, H-3Q, I-1T/V and H+2P mutants evidenced different interaction profiles depending on the target NRs, thereby indicating that these residues are the specific determinants required for the selective interaction between the SRC-1 NR box-2 and a given receptor.  相似文献
