    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Proteomic Analysis of the Mediator Complex Interactome in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Received: 26 October 2016 Henriette Uthe, Jens T. Vanselow & Andreas Schlosser Accepted: 25 January 2017 Here we present the most comprehensive analysis of the yeast Mediator complex interactome to date. Published: 27 February 2017 Particularly gentle cell lysis and co-immunopurification conditions allowed us to preserve even transient protein-protein interactions and to comprehensively probe the molecular environment of the Mediator complex in the cell. Metabolic 15N-labeling thereby enabled stringent discrimination between bona fide interaction partners and nonspecifically captured proteins. Our data indicates a functional role for Mediator beyond transcription initiation. We identified a large number of Mediator-interacting proteins and protein complexes, such as RNA polymerase II, general transcription factors, a large number of transcriptional activators, the SAGA complex, chromatin remodeling complexes, histone chaperones, highly acetylated histones, as well as proteins playing a role in co-transcriptional processes, such as splicing, mRNA decapping and mRNA decay. Moreover, our data provides clear evidence, that the Mediator complex interacts not only with RNA polymerase II, but also with RNA polymerases I and III, and indicates a functional role of the Mediator complex in rRNA processing and ribosome biogenesis. The Mediator complex is an essential coactivator of eukaryotic transcription. Its major function is to communi- cate regulatory signals from gene-specific transcription factors upstream of the transcription start site to RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) and to promote activator-dependent assembly and stabilization of the preinitiation complex (PIC)1–3. The yeast Mediator complex is composed of 25 subunits and forms four distinct modules: the head, the middle, and the tail module, in addition to the four-subunit CDK8 kinase module (CKM), which can reversibly associate with the 21-subunit Mediator complex.

Michael Bishop The retinoblastoma protein (pRb) inhibits progression through the cell cycle. Although pRb is phosphorylated when G1 cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) are active, the mech- anisms underlying pRb regulation are unknown. In vitro phosphorylation by cyclin Dl /Cdk4 leads to inactivation of pRb in a microinjection-based in vivo cell cycle assay. In contrast, phosphorylation of pRb by Cdk2 or Cdk3 in complexes with A- or E-type cyclins is not sufficient to inactivate pRb function in this assay, despite extensive phos- phorylation and conversion to a slowly migrating "hyperphosphorylated form." The differential effects of phosphorylation on pRb function coincide with modification of distinct sets of sites. Serine 795 is phosphorylated efficiently by Cdk4, even in the absence of an intact LXCXE motif in cyclin D, but not by Cdk2 or Cdk3. Mutation of serine 795 to alanine prevents pRb inactivation by Cdk4 phosphorylation in the microinjection assay. This study identifies a residue whose phosphorylation is critical for inactivation of pRb-mediated growth suppression, and it indicates that hyperphosphorylation and inactivation of pRb are not necessarily synonymous. INTRODUCTION pRb is recognized by its characteristic decrease in electrophoretic mobility, and conditions that favor cell The retinoblastoma protein (pRb) functions to con- proliferation favor the appearance of these slower mi- strain cell proliferation and exerts its effects during the grating forms (Cobrinik et al., 1992; Hinds et al., 1992).

Tis is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. TRIM24 (Tripartite Motif Containing 24) is a recently identifed oncogene overexpressed in various cancers. However, the molecular mechanism of TRIM24 in the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains ambiguous. In the present study, we analyzed the expression pattern of TRIM24 in 100 HNSCC tissues and found that TRIM24 was overexpressed in 43/100 HNSCC cases. Signifcant association was found between TRIM24 overexpression and tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage (� = 0.0034)andTstage(� = 0.0048). Furthermore, we overexpressed and knocked down TRIM24 in Detroit 562 and FaDu cell lines, respectively. TRIM24 overexpression promoted proliferation, colony formation, and invasion, while TRIM24 depletion inhibited proliferation, colony formation, and invasion. Further studies showed that TRIM24 facilitated cell cycle transition and upregulated cyclin D1 and p-Rb.

Lennarz, State University of New York, Stony Brook, NY, June 25, 1999 (received for review April 30, 1999) ABSTRACT Several genes encoding proteins critical to Two distinct repressor domains have been identified and the neuronal phenotype, such as the brain type II sodium characterized in REST (6, 7). These domains are located in the channel gene, are expressed to high levels only in neurons. amino and carboxyl termini of the protein. Both domains are This cell specificity is due, in part, to long-term repression in required for full repression in the context of the intact mole- nonneural cells mediated by the repressor protein cule, but each domain is sufficient to repress type II sodium REST͞NRSF (RE1 silencing transcription factor͞neural- channel reporter genes when expressed as a Gal4 fusion restrictive silencing factor). We show here that CoREST, a protein (6). The C-terminal repressor domain contains a C2H2 newly identified human protein, functions as a corepressor for class zinc finger beginning approximately 40 aa upstream of the REST. A single zinc finger motif in REST is required for stop codon.
