A number of eukaryotic DNA binding proteins have been isolated by screening phage expression libraries with DNA probes containing the binding site of the DNA-binding protein. This methodology was employed here to isolate clones of the factor that interacts with the W box element of the human major histocompatibility complex HLA-DQB gene. Surprisingly, several cDNA clones of YB-1, a cDNA clone that was previously isolated with a CCAAT element-containing sequence were found. Independently, the screening of phage expression libraries with depurinated DNA resulted in the isolation of YB-1 and dbpA, a previously isolated cDNA that has homology to YB-1. Additional characterization of YB-1 showed that it bound a wide variety of DNA sequences and suggested that the binding of this protein is promiscuous. Furthermore, we show that both YB-1 and dbpA bind to depurinated DNA better than undamaged DNA and that the extent of specificity of binding is influenced by Mg2+. Due to the lack of sequence specificity and high degree of binding to depurinated DNA, we suggest that these proteins might be involved in chromosome functions such as maintenance of chromatin structure or DNA repair that do not require sequence-specific binding. 相似文献

Y-box结合蛋白功能及对肿瘤发生的影响 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Y-box结合蛋白家族成员是一类高度保守的顺式作用元件, 广泛存在于原核及真核生物细胞中。它是一种多功能蛋白, 与转录调节、翻译调控、mRNA选择性剪接、DNA的修复、细胞增殖和再生等有关。Y-box结合蛋白的氨基酸序列包含3个结构域: 氨基酸N末端, 亲水结构域C末端, 冷休克结构域(cold shock domain CSD), 保守的冷休克结构域决定了Y-box结合蛋白的大部分功能。最近研究发现, 定位于细胞核中的YB-1蛋白在局部晚期非小细胞肺癌的预防上可作为新的靶位点, YB-1蛋白还可通过对抑癌基因p53启动子抑制起负调控作用, 此外, YB-1蛋白在PI3K/Akt信号通路中也起到重要的作用, 这些研究都为肿瘤的治疗提供了新的线索和启示。文章就Y-box结合蛋白功能及其对肿瘤发生的影响等方面进行概述。 相似文献

Isolation and characterization of a cDNA clone for the CCAAT transcription factor EFIA reveals a novel structural motif 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
Enhancer factor I (EFI) is a trans-acting factor which binds to the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat enhancer and promoter at two inverted CCAAT-box motifs. We demonstrate that two forms of EFI DNA binding activity exist in nuclear extracts of avian cells. One form requires two heterologous components (EFIA)(EFIB) for high affinity, specific DNA binding activity, whereas a second form is not dependent on EFIB for binding and may be composed solely of EFIA, perhaps as a multimer. Both forms give rise to the same mobility shift in gel retardation assays, but the two forms can be separated chromatographically under buffer conditions which stabilize the two DNA binding activities. A cDNA for EFIA has been isolated from a rat liver cDNA expression library. The 1489-base pair EFIA cDNA encodes a 322-amino acid protein which is nearly identical to two previously described human DNA binding proteins. These are dbpB, a DNA binding protein of unknown specificity which binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor enhancer and c-erbB-2 gene promoter (Sakura, H., Maekawa, T., Imamoto, F., Yasuda, K., and Ishii, S. (1988) Gene (Amst.) 73, 499-507), and YB-1, a protein which recognizes the Y-box (inverted CCAAT motif) of the HLA-DR alpha chain gene (Didier, D. K., Schiffenbauer, J., Woulfe, S. L., Zacheis, M., and Schwartz, B. D. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 85, 7322-7326). EFIA/dbpB/YB-1 share a highly conserved region of 100 amino acids with dbpA, another protein identified by Sakura et al. (1988) which binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor enhancer and c-erbB-2 gene promoter, and with two Xenopus CCAAT binding proteins, FRG Y1 and FRG Y2 (Tafuri, S. R., and Wolffe, A. P. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A., in press). This highly conserved domain among all six proteins is presumed to represent or contain a DNA binding domain for the CCAAT motif. In addition, we note that the EFIA/dbpB/YB-1 polypeptide contains a novel arrangement of alternating clusters of positively and negatively charged amino acids not yet reported for any trans-acting factor. The functional significance of this novel structural motif, which is also conserved in dbpA, FRG Y1, and FRG Y2, will be discussed. 相似文献
