Distinct transcriptional programs with TBP vs. TRF2 TRF2 (also known as TLP, TRP, TLF, and TBPL1) system factors (Maldonado 1999; Moore et al. 1999; Ohbayashi et al. 1999; Rabenstein et al. 1999; Teichmann et al. 1999) TBP can activate transcription via the TATA-box motif, contains two domains that are similar to those in TBP and and both TBP and the TATA box are conserved in Archaea interacts with TFIIA and TFIIB, as does TBP (Fig. 1A; and eukaryotes (Kosa et al. 1997; Patikoglou et al. 1999). Supplemental Fig. S1). In addition, the overall structures TBP binds to the TATA box with its core region, which of TBP and TRF2 are predicted to be conserved (Dantonel consists of two structurally repeated domains that form et al. 1999). Unlike TBP, however, TRF2 does not bind to a saddle-shaped structure. For the purposes of this dis- the TATA box and does not exhibit sequence-specific cussion, it is important to remember that the binding of binding to DNA in the presence or absence of all possible TBP to the TATA box includes the participation of two combinations of TFIIA and TFIIB (for example, see Wang pairs of conserved Phe residues (F193–F210 and F284–F301 et al. 2014). in human TBP) whose side chains intercalate between the TRF2, but not TBP, is required for transcription of core first and last base pairs of the TATA motif and kink the promoters, such as those of most ribosomal protein genes, DNA (Fig. 1A; Supplemental Fig. S1; Kim et al. 1993a,b). that lack a TATA box and are dependent on the TCT This interaction is highly conserved (Patikoglou et al. sequence motif (Wang et al. 2014). On the other hand, 1999). In addition, TBP binds to other basal transcription TBP, but not TRF2, is essential for the transcription of factors such as TFIIA and TFIIB as well as TAFs (for review, TATA-dependent core promoters. These findings revealed see Thomas and Chiang 2006). that TRF2, but not TBP, supports a TCT-dependent RNA Pol II transcription program that is dedicated to the pro- duction of ribosomal proteins. Notably, the TRF2-TCT transcriptional program complements the RNA Pol I and RNA Pol III transcriptional programs that are dedi- cated to the synthesis of rRNAs and tRNAs (Supplemen- tal Fig. S2). In addition, transcription from DPE-dependent core promoters requires TRF2 (Kedmi et al. 2014) but not TBP (Hsu et al. 2008). These TATA-less DPE-containing promoters include those of most of the homeotic genes (Juven-Gershon et al. 2008) as well as of many genes that are regulated by the Dorsal transcription factor (Zehavi et al. 2014). It is important to note that the DPE motif functions with the Inr element but not with the TCT motif (Parry et al. 2010; Kadonaga 2012). Thus, the TCT- dependent promoters are different from the DPE- dependent promoters. Hence, for RNA Pol II, these studies have revealed three distinct transcriptional pro- grams: the TBP-based transcription of TATA-dependent core promoters and the TRF2-based transcription of TCT-dependent core promoters and DPE-dependent core promoters. TRF2 evolved prior to the emergence of the bilateria The identification of distinct TBP- and TRF2-based tran- scriptional programs led us to investigate the evolution of TRF2. We found paralogs of TBP in several protist lineages and in plants and animals but not in yeast. It Figure 1.

Key words: cadherin, cell adhesion, morphogenesis, germ layers, Nematostella, Cnidaria Abstract Morphogenesis is a shape-building process during development of multicellular organisms. During this process the establishment and modulation of cell-cell contacts play an important role. Cadherins, the major cell adhesion molecules, form adherens junctions connecting ephithelial cells. Numerous studies in Bilateria have shown that cadherins are associated with the regulation of cell differentiation, cell shape changes, cell migration and tissue morphogenesis. To date, the role of Cadherins in non- bilaterians is unknown. Here, we study the expression and the function of two paralogous classical cadherins, cadherin1 and cadherin3, in the diploblastic animal, the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis. We show that a cadherin switch is accompanying the formation of germ layers. Using specific antibodies, we show that both cadherins are localized to adherens junctions at apical and basal positions in ectoderm and endoderm.

  • Your Inner Fish : a Journey Into the 3.5-Billion-Year History of the Human Body / by Neil Shubin.—1St Ed
    EPILOGUE As a parent of two young children, I find myself spending a lot of time lately in zoos, museums, and aquaria. Being a visitor is a strange experience, because I’ve been involved with these places for decades, working in museum collections and even helping to prepare exhibits on occasion. During family trips, I’ve come to realize how much my vocation can make me numb to the beauty and sublime complexity of our world and our bodies. I teach and write about millions of years of history and about bizarre ancient worlds, and usually my interest is detached and analytic. Now I’m experiencing science with my children—in the kinds of places where I discovered my love for it in the first place. One special moment happened recently with my son at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. We’ve gone there regularly over the past three years because of his love of trains and the fact that there is a huge model railroad smack in the center of the place. I’ve spent countless hours at that one exhibit tracing model locomotives on their little trek from Chicago to Seattle. After a number of weekly visits 263 to this shrine for the train-obsessed, Nathaniel and I walked to corners of the museum we had failed to visit during our train-watching ventures or occasional forays to the full-size tractors and planes. In the back of the museum, in the Henry Crown Space Center, model planets hang from the ceiling and space suits lie in cases together with other memorabilia of the space program of the 1960s and 1970s.

Ereskovsky & Emmanuelle Renard & Carole Borchiellini Received: 20 December 2011 /Accepted: 26 March 2012 /Published online: 29 April 2012 # Springer-Verlag 2012 Abstract The emergence of multicellularity is regarded as metamorphosis. Thus, sponges can provide information en- one of the major evolutionary events of life. This transition abling us to better understand early animal evolution at the unicellularity/pluricellularity was acquired independently molecular level but also at the cell/cell layer level.

  • TBP2 Is Essential for Germ Cell Development by Regulating Transcription and Chromatin Condensation in the Oocyte

Regulation of these has been associated with germ cell-specific and pluripotency-associated transcription factors, but the role of general transcription factors (GTFs) remains elusive. TATA-binding protein (TBP) is a GTF involved in transcription by all RNA polymerases. During ovarian folliculogenesis in mice the vertebrate-specific member of the TBP family, TBP2/ TRF3, is expressed exclusively in oocytes. To determine TBP2 function in vivo, we generated TBP2-deficient mice. We found that Tbp2À/À mice are viable with no apparent phenotype. However, females lacking TBP2 are sterile due to defective folliculogenesis, altered chromatin organization, and transcriptional misregulation of key oocyte-specific genes.
