  • The Function of TAF10 Proteins in Drosophila Melanogaster
    The function of dTAF10 proteins in Drosophila melanogaster Zoltán Gábor Páhi Ph.D. thesis summary Supervisors: Imre Miklós Boros Ph.D, D.Sc. Head of the Department Tibor Pankotai Ph.D. Assistant Professor Ph.D. School of Biology University of Szeged Faculty of Science and Informatics Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Szeged 2017 1. Introduction As a first step of eukaryotic transcription initiation, the general transcription factor TFIID binds to the promoter region of transcribed genes. TFIID is a multiprotein complex consisting of TBP, which binds to the TATA box region, and several TAF proteins, which associate with TBP. TFIID is evolutionary well- conserved in human and Drosophila cells and it consists of double copies of five TAFs (TAF4, TAF5, TAF6, TAF9 and TAF12), which together create a two-fold symmetric structure. Then TAF8-TAF10 heterodimer joins to this complex and induces conformational changes by abolishing the two-fold symmetry. Further peripheral TAF proteins and TBP bind to the 7 TAF containing TFIID core, forming the functional complex. TAF proteins, however are parts not only the TBP, but the histone acetyl transferase (HAT) SAGA complex, as well. Drosophila dSAGA acetylates histone proteins by transferring acetyl groups from acetyl-coenzyme A to lysine side chains. The HAT enzyme of dSAGA is dGCN5, which on the other hand is also present in another histone acetyltransferase complex as well, that is designated as dATAC in Drosophila. Curiously, while dSAGA and dATAC complexes have very similar HAT modules, in which they share common subunits, such as dGCN5, dSGF29 and dADA3, they regulate different 1 biological processes.

  • Molecular Mechanisms of Ribosomal Protein Gene Coregulation
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 3, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Molecular mechanisms of ribosomal protein gene coregulation Rohit Reja, Vinesh Vinayachandran, Sujana Ghosh, and B. Franklin Pugh Center for Eukaryotic Gene Regulation, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pennsylvania 16802, USA The 137 ribosomal protein genes (RPGs) of Saccharomyces provide a model for gene coregulation. We examined the positional and functional organization of their regulators (Rap1 [repressor activator protein 1], Fhl1, Ifh1, Sfp1, and Hmo1), the transcription machinery (TFIIB, TFIID, and RNA polymerase II), and chromatin at near-base-pair res- olution using ChIP-exo, as RPGs are coordinately reprogrammed. Where Hmo1 is enriched, Fhl1, Ifh1, Sfp1, and Hmo1 cross-linked broadly to promoter DNA in an RPG-specific manner and demarcated by general minor groove widening. Importantly, Hmo1 extended 20–50 base pairs (bp) downstream from Fhl1. Upon RPG repression, Fhl1 remained in place. Hmo1 dissociated, which was coupled to an upstream shift of the +1 nucleosome, as reflected by the Hmo1 extension and core promoter region. Fhl1 and Hmo1 may create two regulatable and positionally distinct barriers, against which chromatin remodelers position the +1 nucleosome into either an activating or a repressive state. Consistent with in vitro studies, we found that specific TFIID subunits, in addition to cross-linking at the core promoter, made precise cross-links at Rap1 sites, which we interpret to reflect native Rap1–TFIID interactions. Our findings suggest how sequence-specific DNA binding regulates nucleosome positioning and transcription complex assembly >300 bp away and how coregulation coevolved with coding sequences.

  • TAF10 Complex Provides Evidence for Nuclear Holo&Ndash;TFIID Assembly from Preform
    ARTICLE Received 13 Aug 2014 | Accepted 2 Dec 2014 | Published 14 Jan 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms7011 OPEN Cytoplasmic TAF2–TAF8–TAF10 complex provides evidence for nuclear holo–TFIID assembly from preformed submodules Simon Trowitzsch1,2, Cristina Viola1,2, Elisabeth Scheer3, Sascha Conic3, Virginie Chavant4, Marjorie Fournier3, Gabor Papai5, Ima-Obong Ebong6, Christiane Schaffitzel1,2, Juan Zou7, Matthias Haffke1,2, Juri Rappsilber7,8, Carol V. Robinson6, Patrick Schultz5, Laszlo Tora3 & Imre Berger1,2,9 General transcription factor TFIID is a cornerstone of RNA polymerase II transcription initiation in eukaryotic cells. How human TFIID—a megadalton-sized multiprotein complex composed of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and 13 TBP-associated factors (TAFs)— assembles into a functional transcription factor is poorly understood. Here we describe a heterotrimeric TFIID subcomplex consisting of the TAF2, TAF8 and TAF10 proteins, which assembles in the cytoplasm. Using native mass spectrometry, we define the interactions between the TAFs and uncover a central role for TAF8 in nucleating the complex. X-ray crystallography reveals a non-canonical arrangement of the TAF8–TAF10 histone fold domains. TAF2 binds to multiple motifs within the TAF8 C-terminal region, and these interactions dictate TAF2 incorporation into a core–TFIID complex that exists in the nucleus. Our results provide evidence for a stepwise assembly pathway of nuclear holo–TFIID, regulated by nuclear import of preformed cytoplasmic submodules. 1 European Molecular Biology Laboratory, Grenoble Outstation, 6 rue Jules Horowitz, 38042 Grenoble, France. 2 Unit for Virus Host-Cell Interactions, University Grenoble Alpes-EMBL-CNRS, 6 rue Jules Horowitz, 38042 Grenoble, France. 3 Cellular Signaling and Nuclear Dynamics Program, Institut de Ge´ne´tique et de Biologie Mole´culaire et Cellulaire, UMR 7104, INSERM U964, 1 rue Laurent Fries, 67404 Illkirch, France.

    Anti-SETD7 (aa 50-150) polyclonal antibody (DPABH-04287) This product is for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic use. PRODUCT INFORMATION Antigen Description Histone methyltransferase that specifically monomethylates Lys-4 of histone H3. H3 Lys-4 methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. Plays a central role in the transcriptional activation of genes such as collagenase or insulin. Recruited by IPF1/PDX- 1 to the insulin promoter, leading to activate transcription. Has also methyltransferase activity toward non-histone proteins such as p53/TP53, TAF10, and possibly TAF7 by recognizing and binding the [KR]-[STA]-K in substrate proteins. Monomethylates Lys-189 of TAF10, leading to increase the affinity of TAF10 for RNA polymerase II. Monomethylates Lys-372 of p53/TP53, stabilizing p53/TP53 and increasing p53/TP53-mediated transcriptional activation. Also able to demethylated Lys-372 of p53/TP53 in vitro.

LOXL2 Antibody (aa454-742) - Protein Information Sample (30 ug of whole cell lysate). Name LOXL2 Function Mediates the post-translational oxidative deamination of lysine residues on target proteins leading to the formation of deaminated lysine (allysine) (PubMed:<a hr ef="http://www.uniprot.org/citations/27735 Page 1/4 10320 Camino Santa Fe, Suite G San Diego, CA 92121 Tel: 858.875.1900 Fax: 858.622.0609 137" target="_blank">27735137</a>). Acts as a transcription corepressor and specifically mediates deamination of trimethylated 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (H3K4me3), a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation (PubMed:<a href= "http://www.uniprot.org/citations/27735137 " target="_blank">27735137</a>). Shows no activity against histone H3 when it is trimethylated on 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3) or 'Lys-27' (H3K27me3) or when 'Lys-4' is monomethylated (H3K4me1) or dimethylated (H3K4me2) (PubMed:<a href= LOXL2 antibody detects LOXL2 protein by "http://www.uniprot.org/citations/27735137 Western blot analysis.

Although RNAi- hits in each screen were known or later validated to be real. The based high-throughput screens are routinely used for this task, lack of concordance suggest that these screens have not reached false discovery and sensitivity remain a challenge. Here we describe saturation (14) and that additional genes of importance remain a computational framework for systematic integration of published to be discovered. gene expression data to identify genes defining a phenotype of Motivated by the need for an alternative approach for iden- interest. We applied our approach to rank-order all genes based on tification of key cell identity genes, we developed a computa- their likelihood of determining ES cell (ESC) identity.
