Project description:Pbx-regulating protein-1 (Prep1) is a tumor suppressor, whereas myeloid ecotropic viral integration site-1 (Meis1) is an oncogene. We show that, to perform these activities in mouse embryonic fibroblasts, both proteins competitively heterodimerize with pre-B-cell leukemia homeobox-1 (Pbx1). Meis1 alone transforms Prep1-deficient fibroblasts, whereas Prep1 overexpression inhibits Meis1 tumorigenicity. Pbx1 can, therefore, alternatively act as an oncogene or tumor suppressor. Prep1 posttranslationally controls the level of Meis1, decreasing its stability by sequestering Pbx1. The different levels of Meis1 and the presence of Prep1 are followed at the transcriptional level by the induction of specific transcriptional signatures. The decrease of Meis1 prevents Meis1 interaction with Ddx3x and Ddx5, which are essential for Meis1 tumorigenesis, and modifies the growth-promoting DNA binding landscape of Meis1 to the growth-controlling landscape of Prep1. Hence, the key feature of Prep1 tumor-inhibiting activity is the control of Meis1 stability.

Project description:Human PREP1 and PBX1 are homeodomain transcriptional factors, whose biochemical and structural characterization has not yet been fully described. Expression of full-length recombinant PREP1 (47.6 kDa) and PBX1 (46.6 kDa) in E. coli is difficult because of poor yield, high instability and insufficient purity, in particular for structural studies. We cloned the cDNA of both proteins into a dicistronic vector containing an N-terminal glutathione S-transferase (GST) tag and co-expressed and co-purified a stable PBX1:PREP1 complex. For structural studies, we produced two C-terminally truncated complexes that retain their ability to bind DNA and are more stable than the full-length proteins through various purification steps. Here we report the production of large amounts of soluble and pure recombinant human PBX1:PREP1 complex in an active form capable of binding DNA.

Project description:PREP1 and PBX1 are homeodomain (HD) transcription factors that play crucial roles in embryonic development. Here, we present the first biophysical characterization of a PREP1 HD, and the NMR spectroscopic study of its DNA binding pocket. The data show that residues flanking the HD participate in DNA binding. The kinetic parameters for DNA binding of individual PREP1 and PBX1 HDs, and of their combination, show that isolated PREP1 and PBX1 HDs bind to DNA in a cooperative manner. A novel PREP1 motif, flanking the HD at the C-terminus, is required for cooperativity.

Project description:Different transcription factors operate together at promoters and enhancers to regulate gene expression. Transcription factors either bind directly to their target DNA or are tethered to it by other proteins. The transcription factor Sp2 serves as a paradigm for indirect genomic binding. It does not require its DNA-binding domain for genomic DNA binding and occupies target promoters independently of whether they contain a cognate DNA-binding motif. Hence, Sp2 is strikingly different from its closely related paralogs Sp1 and Sp3, but how Sp2 recognizes its targets is unknown. Here, we sought to gain more detailed insights into the genomic targeting mechanism of Sp2. ChIP-exo sequencing in mouse embryonic fibroblasts revealed genomic binding of Sp2 to a composite motif where a recognition sequence for TALE homeoproteins and a recognition sequence for the trimeric histone-fold domain protein nuclear transcription factor Y (Nf-y) are separated by 11 bp. We identified a complex consisting of the TALE homeobox protein Prep1, its partner PBX homeobox 1 (Pbx1), and Nf-y as the major partners in Sp2-promoter interactions. We found that the Pbx1:Prep1 complex together with Nf-y recruits Sp2 to co-occupied regulatory elements. In turn, Sp2 potentiates binding of Pbx1:Prep1 and Nf-y. We also found that the Sp-box, a short sequence motif close to the Sp2 N terminus, is crucial for Sp2's cofactor function. Our findings reveal a mechanism by which the DNA binding-independent activity of Sp2 potentiates genomic loading of Pbx1:Prep1 and Nf-y to composite motifs present in many promoters of highly expressed genes.
