Mechanism of action of a yeast activator: direct effect of GAL4 derivatives on mammalian TFIID-promoter interactions 总被引:62,自引:0,他引:62
We have analyzed interactions between the mammalian TATA factor (TFIID) and derivatives of the yeast activator GAL4. The interaction of the TATA factor on the adenovirus E4 promoter with GAL4 binding sites adjacent to the TATA site was qualitatively altered in response to GAL4 binding. Alterations in the TFIID interactions were observed with two GAL4 derivatives that stimulated hybrid E4 promoter activity in vitro but not with a third derivative that bound to DNA but showed no activation. These results indicate that TFIID is a direct target for a GAL4 activation domain and suggest a simple general model for the activation mechanism. 相似文献

Role of the histone amino termini in facilitated binding of a transcription factor, GAL4-AH, to nucleosome cores. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Facilitated, "cooperative" binding of GAL4-AH to nucleosomal DNA occurred in response to inhibition from the core histone amino termini. The binding of GAL4-AH (which contains the DNA-binding and dimerization domains of GAL4) to nucleosome cores containing multiple binding sites initiated at the end of a nucleosome core and proceeded in a cooperative manner until all sites were occupied. However, following tryptic removal of the core histone amino termini, GAL4-AH binding appeared to be noncooperative, similar to binding naked DNA. Binding of GAL4-AH to nucleosomes bearing a single GAL4 site at different positions indicated that inhibition of GAL4 binding was largely mediated by the histone amino termini and primarily occurred at sites well within the core and not near the end. When the histone amino termini were intact, binding of GAL4-AH to sites near the center of a nucleosome core was greatly enhanced by the presence of additional GAL4 dimers bound to more-accessible positions. These data illustrate that the binding of a factor to more-accessible sites, near the end of a nucleosome, allows facilitated binding of additional factors to the center of the nucleosome, thereby overcoming repression from the core histone amino termini. This mechanism may contribute to the binding of multiple factors to complex promoter and enhancer elements in cellular chromatin. 相似文献
