ProMyelocyticLeukemia (PML) protein can polymerize into a mega-Dalton nuclear assembly of 0.1-2 μm in diameter. The mechanism of PML nuclear body biogenesis remains elusive. Here, PML<sub>RBCC</sub> is successfully purified. The gel filtration and ultracentrifugation analysis suggest a previously unrecognized sequential oligomerization mechanism via PML monomer, dimer, tetramer and N-mer. Consistently, PML B1-box structure (2.0 Å) and SAXS characterization reveal an unexpected networking by W157 ...[more]
