Results Design of Protein Constructs. NMR structural studies of p53/CBP complexes are frequently hindered by conformational averaging and exchange broadening, making structural restraints difficult to obtain (25, 38, 53). Binding of the p53TAD to the TAZ1 (Kd 0.9 μM) and TAZ2 (Kd 0.026 μM) domains occurs in fast to intermediate exchange on the chemical shift timescale, resulting in weak or missing resonances as a result of exchange broadening (25). Additionally, the presence of secondary binding sites pre- vents the use of a large excess of one binding partner in an effort to drive the interaction into the slow-exchange regime (54). These difficulties have limited previous structural characteriza- tion of p53TAD:TAZ2 complexes to the isolated AD1 or AD2 subdomains, for which the resonances are less broadened be- cause they exchange on a faster timescale (25, 38, 39). To obtain insights into the molecular basis for recognition of TAZ1 and TAZ2 by the bipartite p53TAD, we attempted to determine NMR structures of p53(13–61) in a 1:1 complex with each of the TAZ domains. Because of exchange broadening and missing resonances, we were able to obtain only preliminary, low-resolution structures that revealed the location and N-to-C Fig. 1.

While pKID contains two helices, aA and aB, which interact with KIX, the structure of bound c-Myb reveals a single bent amphipathic helix that binds in the same hydrophobic groove as the aB helix of pKID. The affinity of c-Myb for KIX is lower than that of pKID, and relies more heavily on optimal interactions of the single helix of c-Myb with residues in the hydrophobic groove. In particular, a deep hydrophobic pocket in KIX accounts for more than half the inter- actions with c-Myb observed by NMR. A bend in the a-helix of c-Myb enables a critical leucine side-chain to penetrate into this pocket more deeply than the equivalent leucine residue of pKID.

Received: 19 November 2020; Accepted: 6 December 2020; Published: 8 December 2020 Abstract: KMT2 (histone-lysine N-methyltransferase subclass 2) complexes methylate lysine 4 on the histone H3 tail at gene promoters and gene enhancers and, thus, control the process of gene transcription. These complexes not only play an essential role in normal development but have also been described as involved in the aberrant growth of tissues. KMT2 mutations resulting from the rearrangements of the KMT2A (MLL1) gene at 11q23 are associated with pediatric mixed-lineage leukemias, and recent studies demonstrate that KMT2 genes are frequently mutated in many types of human cancers. Moreover, other components of the KMT2 complexes have been reported to contribute to oncogenesis. This review summarizes the recent advances in our knowledge of the role of KMT2 complexes in cell transformation. In addition, it discusses the therapeutic targeting of different components of the KMT2 complexes.

Lassar 1 A hallmark of cells comprising the superficial zone of articular cartilage is their expression of lubricin, encoded by the Prg4 gene, that lubricates the joint and protects against the devel- opment of arthritis. Here, we identify Creb5 as a transcription factor that is specifically expressed in superficial zone articular chondrocytes and is required for TGF-β and EGFR signaling to induce Prg4 expression. Notably, forced expression of Creb5 in chondrocytes 1234567890():,; derived from the deep zone of the articular cartilage confers the competence for TGF-β and EGFR signals to induce Prg4 expression. Chromatin-IP and ATAC-Seq analyses have revealed that Creb5 directly binds to two Prg4 promoter-proximal regulatory elements, that display an open chromatin conformation specifically in superficial zone articular chondrocytes; and which work in combination with a more distal regulatory element to drive induction of Prg4 by TGF-β. Our results indicate that Creb5 is a critical regulator of Prg4/lubricin expression in the articular cartilage. 1 Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA. 2 Department of Medical Oncology and Center for Functional Cancer Epigenetics, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, USA. 3 Departments of Medicine, Brigham & Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA. 4 Department of Biological Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA.

Peter Giese9, Jacob J. Michaelson6,10,11,12, Lisa C. Lyons3,13, Anne-Laurence Boutillier1,2* and Ted Abel3* Abstract Background: CREB-dependent transcription necessary for long-term memory is driven by interactions with CREB- binding protein (CBP), a multi-domain protein that binds numerous transcription factors potentially affecting expression of thousands of genes. Identifying specific domain functions for multi-domain proteins is essential to understand processes such as cognitive function and circadian clocks. We investigated the function of the CBP KIX domain in hippocampal memory and gene expression using CBPKIX/KIX mice with mutations that prevent phospho- CREB (Ser133) binding. Results: We found that CBPKIX/KIX mice were impaired in long-term memory, but not learning acquisition or short- term memory for the Morris water maze. Using an unbiased analysis of gene expression in the dorsal hippocampus after training in the Morris water maze or contextual fear conditioning, we discovered dysregulation of CREB, CLOCK, and BMAL1 target genes and downregulation of circadian genes in CBPKIX/KIX mice. Given our finding that the CBP KIX domain was important for transcription of circadian genes, we profiled circadian activity and phase resetting in CBPKIX/KIX mice.

Rosenfeld, February 9, 1999 ABSTRACT CREB-binding proteins (CBP) and p300 are each of which appear to interact with large numbers of distinct essential transcriptional coactivators for a large number of DNA-binding transcription factors, which include nuclear regulated DNA-binding transcription factors, including receptors (6), CREB (8), and STAT proteins, (22–24). In CREB, nuclear receptors, and STATs. CBP and p300 function addition, CBPyp300 interact with other classes of modulating in part by mediating the assembly of multiprotein complexes proteins such as RNA helicase A, the p160ySRC-1yp/CIP that contain additional cofactors such as p300yCBP interact- family of factors, and S6 kinase (25, 26). This property may ing protein (pyCIP), a member of the p160ySRC family of underlie the putative ability of CBPyp300 to serve as nuclear coactivators, and the p300yCBP associated factor pyCAF.
