Both high mobility group (HMG)-boxes and the acidic tail of HMGB1 regulate recombination-activating gene (RAG)-mediated recombination signal synapsis and cleavage in vitro.

RAG-1 and RAG-2 initiate V(D)J recombination through synapsis and cleavage of a 12/23 pair of V(D)J recombination signal sequences (RSS). RAG-RSS complex assembly and activity in vitro is promoted by high mobility group proteins of the "HMG-box" family, exemplified by HMGB1. How HMGB1 stimulates the DNA binding and cleavage activity of the RAG complex remains unclear. HMGB1 contains two homologous HMG-box DNA binding domains, termed A and B, linked by a stretch of basic residues to a highly acidic C-terminal tail. To identify determinants of HMGB1 required for stimulation of RAG-mediated RSS binding and cleavage, we prepared an extensive panel of mutant HMGB1 proteins and tested their ability to augment RAG-mediated RSS binding and cleavage activity. Using a combination of mobility shift and in-gel cleavage assays, we find that HMGB1 promotes RAG-mediated cleavage largely through the activity of box B, but optimal stimulation requires a functional A box tethered in the correct orientation. Box A or B mutants fail to promote RAG synaptic complex formation, but this defect is alleviated when the acidic tail is removed from these mutants.

Downstream E-box-mediated regulation of the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene transcription: evidence for an endogenous mechanism of transcriptional repression.

Regulation of the hTERT gene encoding the telomerase catalytic subunit plays an important role in human cell senescence, immortalization, and carcinogenesis. By examining the activity of various deleted or mutated hTERT promoter fragments, we show that an E-box element downstream of the transcription initiation site is critical to differential hTERT transcription between the telomerase/hTERT-positive renal cell carcinoma cell line (RCC23) and its telomerase/hTERT-negative counterpart containing a transferred, normal chromosome 3 (RCC23+3). This E-box element mediated repression of hTERT transcription in RCC23+3 but not in RCC23. A copy number-dependent enhancement of the repression suggested active repression, rather than loss of activation, in RCC23+3. Endogenous expression levels of c-Myc or Mad1, which could activate or repress hTERT transcription when overexpressed, did not account for the differential hTERT transcription. Gel mobility shift assays identified the upstream stimulatory factors (USFs) as a major E-box-binding protein complex in both RCC23 and RCC23+3 and, importantly, detected an RCC23+3-specific, E-box-binding factor that was distinct from the USF and Myc/Mad families. The E-box-mediated repression was also active in normal human fibroblasts and epithelial cells and inactive in some, but not all, telomerase/hTERT-positive cancer cells. These findings provide evidence for an endogenous, repressive mechanism that actively functions in telomerase/hTERT-negative normal cells and becomes defective during carcinogenic processes, e.g., by an inactivation of the telomerase repressor gene on chromosome 3.

The novel F-box protein Mfb1p regulates mitochondrial connectivity and exhibits asymmetric localization in yeast.

Although it is clear that mitochondrial morphogenesis is a complex process involving multiple proteins in eukaryotic cells, little is known about regulatory molecules that modulate mitochondrial network formation. Here, we report the identification of a new yeast mitochondrial morphology gene called MFB1 (YDR219C). MFB1 encodes an F-box protein family member, many of which function in Skp1-Cdc53/Cullin-F-box protein (SCF) ubiquitin ligase complexes. F-box proteins also act in non-SCF complexes whose functions are not well understood. Although cells lacking Mfb1p contain abnormally short mitochondrial tubules, Mfb1p is not essential for known pathways that determine mitochondrial morphology and dynamics. Mfb1p is peripherally associated with the mitochondrial surface. Coimmunoprecipitation assays reveal that Mfb1p interacts with Skp1p in an F-box-dependent manner. However, Mfb1p does not coimmunoprecipitate with Cdc53p. The F-box motif is not essential for Mfb1p-mediated mitochondrial network formation. These observations suggest that Mfb1p acts in a complex lacking Cdc53p required for mitochondrial morphogenesis. During budding, Mfb1p asymmetrically localizes to mother cell mitochondria. By contrast, Skp1p accumulates in the daughter cell cytoplasm. Mfb1p mother cell-specific asymmetry depends on the F-box motif, suggesting that Skp1p down-regulates Mfb1p mitochondrial association in buds. We propose that Mfb1p operates in a novel pathway regulating mitochondrial tubular connectivity.

Role of TATA box sequence and orientation in determining RNA polymerase II/III transcription specificity.

Work from a number of laboratories has indicated that the TATA box sequence can act as a basal promoter element not only for RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) transcription, but also for transcription by RNA polymerase III (RNAP III). We previously reported that, in the absence of other cis-acting elements, the canonical TATA sequence TATAAAAA specifically supported transcription by RNAP II in an unfractionated Drosophila nuclear extract, whereas the sequence TTTTTATA (the same sequence in reverse orientation) directed RNAP III transcription. We have now examined a variety of other TATA box sequences with regard to RNA polymerase selectivity and their ability to support RNAP III transcription. The results have allowed us to rank these TATA box sequences with respect to their relative strengths as RNAP III promoter elements in unfractionated Drosophila extracts. Further, the data indicate that T residues at positions 2 and 4 of the TATA box appear to be important determinants of RNAP III selectivity in this system, whereas A residues at these positions favor RNAP II transcription. Finally, the data suggest that transcription factors TFIID and TFIIIB, although both capable of binding a variety of TATA elements, have distinct sequence preferences for recognizing the TATA box and possibly the surrounding DNA.

A survey of 178 NF-Y binding CCAAT boxes.

The CCAAT box is one of the most common elements in eukaryotic promoters, found in the forward or reverse orientation. Among the various DNA binding proteins that interact with this sequence, only NF-Y (CBF, HAP2/3/4/5) has been shown to absolutely require all 5 nt. Analysis of a database with 178 bona fide NF-Y binding sites in 96 unrelated promoters confirms this need and points to specific additional flanking nucleotides (C, Pu, Pu on the 5'-side and C/G, A/G, G,A/C, G on the 3'-side) required for efficient binding. The frequency of CCAAT boxes appears to be relatively higher in TATA-less promoters, particularly in the reverse ATTGG orientation. In TATA-containing promoters the CCAAT box is preferentially located in the -80/-100 region (mean position -89) and is not found nearer to the Start site than -50. In TATA-less promoters it is usually closer to the +1 signal (at -66 on average) and is sometimes present in proximity to the Cap site. The consensus and location of NF-Y binding sites parallel almost perfectly a previous general statistical study on CCAAT boxes in 502 unrelated promoters. This is an indication that NF-Y is the major, if not the sole, CCAAT box recognizing protein and that it might serve different roles in TATA-containing and TATA-less promoters.

A chicken embryo protein related to the mammalian DEAD box protein p68 is tightly associated with the highly purified protein-RNA complex of 5-MeC-DNA glycosylase.

We have shown previously that DNA demethylation by chick embryo 5-methylcytosine (5-MeC)-DNA glycosylase needs both protein and RNA. Amino acid sequences of nine peptides derived from a highly purified 5-MeC-DNA glycosylase complex were identified by Nanoelectrospray ionisation mass spectrometry to be identical to the mammalian nuclear DEAD box protein p68 RNA helicase. Antibodies directed against human p68 helicase cross-reacted with the purified 5-MeC-DNA glycosylase complex and immunoprecipitated the glycosylase activity. A 2690 bp cDNA coding for the chicken homologue of mammalian p68 was isolated and sequenced. Its derived amino acid sequence is almost identical to the human p68 DEAD box protein up to amino acid position 473 (from a total of 595). This sequence contains all the essential conserved motifs from the DEAD box proteins which are the ATPase, RNA unwinding and RNA binding motifs. The rest of the 122 amino acids in the C-terminal region rather diverge from the human p68 RNA helicase sequence. The recombinant chicken DEAD box protein expressed in Escherichia coli cross-reacts with the same p68 antibodies as the purified chicken embryo 5-MeC-DNA glycosylase complex. The recombinant protein has an RNA-dependent ATPase and an ATP-dependent helicase activity. However, in the presence or absence of RNA the recombinant protein had no 5-MeC-DNA glycosylase activity. In situ hybridisation of 5 day-old chicken embryos with antisense probes of the chicken DEAD box protein shows a high abundance of its transcripts in differentiating embryonic tissues.

Transcriptional potential of the gamma-globin gene is dependent on the CACCC box in a developmental stage-specific manner.

To test the role of CACCC box on gamma-globin gene activation, the CACCC box was deleted or mutated and gamma-gene expression was monitored in transgenic mice. Disruption of the CACCC box had no effect on gamma-gene expression in the cells of embryonic erythropoiesis but it strikingly reduced gamma-gene expression in fetal erythropoiesis, and abolished gamma-gene expression in adult erythroid cells. The CACCC mutation diminished HS formation, as well as TBP and polII recruitment at the gamma-gene promoter; however, it only resulted in slight or no effects on histone H3 and H4 acetylation in adult erythropoiesis. Our findings indicate that each basic cis element of the proximal gamma-gene promoter, i.e. CACCC, CCAAT or TATA box, can be disrupted without affecting the activation of gamma gene in embryonic erythroid cells. We propose that the trans factors recruited by the three boxes interact with each other to form a 'promoter complex'. In embryonic erythropoiesis the locus control region enhancer is able to interact with the complex even when components normally binding to one of the motifs are missing, but it can only activate an intact 'promoter complex' in adult erythroid cells.

A role of the TATA box and the general co-activator hTAF(II)130/135 in promoter-specific trans-activation by simian virus 40 small t antigen.

The small t antigen (st-ag) of simian virus 40 can exert pleiotropic effects on biological processes such as DNA replication, cell cycle progression and gene expression. One possible mode of achieving these effects is through stimulation of NFkappaB-responsive genes encoding growth factors, cytokines, transcription factors and cell cycle regulatory proteins. Indeed, a previous study has shown that st-ag enhanced NFkappaB-mediated transcription. This study demonstrates that promoters possessing a consensus TATA box (i.e. TATAAAAG) in the context of either NFkappaB- or Sp1-binding sites are trans-activated by st-ag. Overexpressing the general transcription factor hTAF(II)130/135, but not hTAF(II)28 or hTAF(II)80, stimulated the activity of promoters in a consensus TATA box-dependent mode. Converting the consensus TATA motif into a non-consensus TATA box strongly impaired activation by st-ag and hTAF(II)130/135. Conversely, mutating a non-consensus TATA motif into the consensus TATA box rendered the mutated promoter inducible by st-ag and hTAF(II)130/135. Mutation of the TATA box had no effect on TNFalpha- or RelA/p65-mediated induction of NFkappaB-responsive promoters, indicating a specific st-ag effect on hTAF(II)130/135. St-ag stimulated the intrinsic transcriptional activity of hTAF(II)130/135. Substitutions in the conserved HPDKGG motif in the N-terminal region or a mutation that impaired the interaction with protein phosphatase 2A abrogated the ability of st-ag to activate hTAF(II)130/135-mediated transcription. These results indicate that trans-activation of promoters by st-ag may depend on a consensus TATA motif and suggest that such promoters recruit the general transcription factor hTAF(II)130/135.

The TATA-box sequence in the basal promoter contributes to determining light-dependent gene expression in plants.

A prototype 13-bp TATA-box sequence, TCACTATATATAG, was mutated at each nucleotide position and examined for its function in the core promoter. Specific nucleotides in the first TATA, the second TATA, as well as the flanking sequences influenced promoter function in transient transformation of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum var Petit Havana) leaves. The effect of a given mutation on reporter gene expression in light versus dark was variable and sometimes contrasting. Some mutations, like T(7) or A(8)-->C or G, completely inactivated the expression of the minimal promoter in light but not in dark. In general, the sequence requirement for dark expression was less stringent than that for light expression. The selective effect of TATA-box mutations on light versus dark expression was exerted on core promoter function in the chromatin-integrated state also. Even in the presence of an upstream light response activator element, TATA-box mutations influenced modulation of the promoter by light. An A at the eighth position was specifically involved in the red light response of the promoter. Selectivity in gene expression was associated with a high level of transcript initiation from a site that was not active in the dark. Nuclear proteins from dark- and light-grown seedlings showed that the sequence variation within the TATA-box governs the formation of alternative transcriptional complexes. The experiments give direct evidence for the role of a core TATA-box sequence in determining the level as well as selectivity of gene expression in plants.

Functional dissection of an abscisic acid (ABA)-inducible gene reveals two independent ABA-responsive complexes each containing a G-box and a novel cis-acting element.

To elucidate the mechanism by which abscisic acid (ABA) regulates gene expression, the promoter of the barley ABA-responsive HVA22 gene has been analyzed by both loss- and gain-of-function studies. Previous reports indicate that G-box sequences, which are present in genes responding to a variety of environmental and physiological cues, are involved in ABA response. However, our data suggest that G-box sequences are necessary but not sufficient for ABA response. Instead, an ABA response complex consisting of a G-box, namely, ABRE3 (GCCACGTACA), and a novel coupling element, CE1 (TGCCACCGG), is sufficient for high-level ABA induction, and replacement of either of these sequences abolishes ABA responsiveness. We suggest that the interaction between G-box sequences, such as ABRE3 in the HVA22 gene, and CE-type sequences determines the specificity in ABA-regulated gene expression. Our results also demonstrate that the ABA response complex is the minimal promoter unit governing high-level ABA induction; four copies of this 49-bp-long complex linked to a minimal promoter can confer more than 100-fold ABA-induced gene expression. In addition to ABA response complex 1, composed of ABRE3 and CE1, the HVA22 promoter contains another ABA response complex. The ABA responsiveness of this ABA response complex 2 relies on the interaction of G-box (ABRE2; CGCACGTGTC) with another yet unidentified coupling element. These two complexes contribute incrementally to the expression level of HVA22 in response to ABA.

Both the functional specificity and autoregulative activity of two ascidian T-box genes HrBra and HrTbx6 are likely to be mediated by the DNA-binding domain.

T-box genes encode a family of transcription factors having conserved DNA-binding domains and diverged transcription regulatory domains, and each family member shows a specific expression pattern and plays a specific and crucial role in animal development. Two fundamental questions to be answered are whether the T-box gene functional specificity is located in the DNA-binding domain or in the transcription regulatory domain and how the specific expression of T-box genes is controlled. In the ascidian Halocynthia roretzi, Brachyury (HrBra) is expressed only in notochord cells while Tbx6 (HrTbx6) is expressed in muscle cells. In the present study, we made chimeric constructs of the two genes to determine the above mentioned questions. Our results suggest that the functional specificity of these two ascidian T-box genes is associated with the DNA-binding domain but not with the transcription regulatory domain. The 5' flanking region of both HrBra and HrTbx6 contains T-protein binding motifs near their minimal promoters that are associated with the autoregulative activation of these genes. Using the chimeric constructs, we also determined whether the autoregulative activity is mediated by the DNA-binding domain or by the transcription activation domain of the gene products. Our results suggest that the autoregulative activity of these two ascidian T-box genes is also mediated by the DNA-binding domain, not by the transcription activation domain of the encoded proteins.

Regulation of herpes simplex virus true late gene expression: sequences downstream from the US11 TATA box inhibit expression from an unreplicated template.

The true late genes of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) are expressed only after the onset of viral DNA replication. Previous studies demonstrated that late promoters lack elements upstream of the TATA box and suggested that only a subset of TATA elements can function in the context of true late promoters. We determined which structural features of true late promoters are responsible for the stringent requirement for viral DNA replication by inserting a series of simple model constructs into the HSV-1 genome in place of one of the two promoters of the UL24 gene. An oligonucleotide consisting of 19 nucleotides spanning the TATA box of the HSV-1 true late US11 gene drove barely detectable levels of expression; by contrast, the corresponding regions of the Adenovirus type 2 major late promoter and the HSV-1 true late glycoprotein C promoter were much more active. Transcripts driven from all of these minimal TATA box promoters accumulated without viral DNA replication. The activity of the US11 TATA box was stimulated by adding upstream Sp1-binding sites or placing the US11 or rabbit beta-globin cap/leader region (-11 to +39) downstream. The Sp1-TATA and TATA-beta-globin cap/leader constructs remained replication independent, while the TATA-US11 cap/leader promoter displayed true late regulation. These results demonstrate that sequences located within the US11 cap/leader region impose a strict requirement for viral DNA replication on a minimal TATA box promoter.

Substitution of a TATA box from a herpes simplex virus late gene in the viral thymidine kinase promoter alters ICP4 inducibility but not temporal expression.

The role of cis-acting promoter elements associated with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) early and late genes was evaluated during productive infection with regard to activation of gene expression by the HSV-1 transactivator ICP4 and control of temporal regulation. A set of recombinant viruses was constructed such that expression of an HSV-1 early gene, thymidine kinase (tk), was placed under the control of either the tk TATA box or the TATA box from the late gene, glycoprotein C (gC), in the presence or absence of the upstream Sp1 and CCAAT sites normally found in the tk promoter. The presence of Sp1 sites in the promoter or replacement of the tk TATA box with the gC TATA box resulted in a decreased activation of tk mRNA expression by ICP4. Substitution of the A + T-rich region from the gC TATA box in the context of the remainder of the surrounding tk sequences resulted in a promoter that bound recombinant TATA-binding protein (TBP) better at lower concentrations than the wild-type tk promoter did. These results indicate that tk promoters that are better able to utilize TBP are less responsive to ICP4 activation and suggest that activation by ICP4 involves the general transcription factors that interact with TBP or TBP itself. Additionally, all of the viruses expressed tk at early times postinfection, indicating that cis-acting promoter elements that control the level of expression of HSV-1 early and late genes do not determine temporal regulation.

A composite polyadenylation signal with TATA box function.

A variant polyadenylation signal, which is conserved and employed by mammalian hepadnaviruses, has a sequence resembling that of the TATA box. We report here that this composite box manifests all the promoter characteristics. It binds effectively TATA-binding protein with TFIIB and TFIIA in a synergistic manner. This capacity, however, is lost when the box is converted to a canonical and simple poly(A) signal. Furthermore, we show that it has promoter activity and supports transcription of reporter genes preferentially in liver-derived cells, a characteristic behavior of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) promoters. In addition, we show that the HBV noncanonical poly(A) signal supports transcription initiation from the viral genome, suggesting that it is a genuine promoter, possibly of the polymerase/reverse transcriptase gene. Finally, we found that this deviant poly(A) signal is crucial for HBV replication since a viral mutant with a canonical poly(A) box is impaired in replication. Our data, therefore, raise the interesting and novel possibility that a composite poly(A) box might have a dual function. At the level of DNA it functions as a promoter to initiate transcription, whereas at the level of RNA it serves as a poly(A) signal to process RNA. An interesting outcome of this strategy of gene expression is that it provides a novel mechanism for the synthesis of an approximately genome length transcript.

Ocular complications of boxing.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the prevalence of ocular injuries in a large population of boxers over a period of 16 years, in particular, the most severe lesions that may be vision threatening. METHODS: Clinical records of the medical archive of the Italian Boxing Federation were analysed. A total of 1032 boxers were examined from February 1982 to October 1998. A complete ophthalmological history was available for 956, who formed the study population (a total of 10 697 examinations). The following data were collected: age when started boxing; duration of competitive boxing career (from the date of the first bout); weight category; a thorough ocular history. The following investigations were carried out: measurement of visual acuity and visual fields, anterior segment inspection, applanation tonometry, gonioscopy, and examination of ocular fundus. Eighty age matched healthy subjects, who had never boxed, formed the control group. RESULTS: Of the 956 boxers examined, 428 were amateur (44.8%) and 528 professional (55.2%). The median age at first examination was 23.1 (4.3) years (range 15-36). The prevalence of conjunctival, corneal, lenticular, vitreal, ocular papilla, and retinal alterations in the study population was 40.9% compared with 3.1% in the control group (p< or =0.0001). The prevalence of serious ocular findings (angle, lens, macula, and peripheral retina alterations) was 5.6% in boxers and 3.1% in controls (NS). CONCLUSIONS: Boxing does not result in a higher prevalence of severe ocular lesions than in the general population. However, the prevalence of milder lesions (in particular with regard to the conjunctiva and cornea) is noteworthy, justifying the need for adequate ophthalmological surveillance.

A prospective cohort study of injury in amateur and professional boxing.

BACKGROUND: There is concern over the potential for a high incidence of injury in boxing. This is despite a lack of prospective data evaluating the risk for modern day participants. Updated, reliable data with a focus on potential exposure to injury for both amateur and, especially, professional boxers is required. AIM: To determine the epidemiology of injury and exposure of amateur and professional boxers in Victoria, Australia. METHODS: A prospective cohort study with one year follow up was carried out over 2004-2005. Thirty three amateur and 14 active professional boxers registered with either Boxing Victoria Inc (amateurs) or the Professional Boxing and Combat Sports Board of Victoria (professionals) volunteered. Exposure at training and competition was measured, and any injuries sustained during this participation were recorded. RESULTS: Twenty one injuries were sustained by the cohort during the follow up period. Most were to the head region (71%; 95% confidence interval -3.7 to 89.4), with concussion being the most common (33%). An overall injury rate of 2.0 injuries per 1000 hours of boxing was calculated. CONCLUSION: The high exposure experienced by the boxers (as a result of considerable training time) indicated that boxing has acute injury rates comparable to, and often lower than, those found in other contact and non-contact sports. Further, acute injuries during training appear to be less common and severe than those sustained in bouts.

T-box genes in vertebrate development.

The myriad developmental roles served by the T-box family of transcription factor genes defy easy categorization. Present in all metazoans, the T-box genes are involved in early embryonic cell fate decisions, regulation of the development of extraembryonic structures, embryonic patterning, and many aspects of organogenesis. They are unusual in displaying dosage sensitivity in most instances. In humans, mutations in T-box genes are responsible for developmental dysmorphic syndromes, and several T-box genes have been implicated in neoplastic processes. T-box transcription factors function in many different signaling pathways, notably bone morphogenetic protein and fibroblast growth factor pathways. The few downstream target genes that have been identified indicate a wide range of downstream effectors.

Combinatorial diversity of fission yeast SCF ubiquitin ligases by homo- and heterooligomeric assemblies of the F-box proteins Pop1p and Pop2p.

BACKGROUND: SCF ubiquitin ligases share the core subunits cullin 1, SKP1, and HRT1/RBX1/ROC1, which associate with different F-box proteins. F-box proteins bind substrates following their phosphorylation upon stimulation of various signaling pathways. Ubiquitin-mediated destruction of the fission yeast cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor Rum1p depends on two heterooligomerizing F-box proteins, Pop1p and Pop2p. Both proteins interact with the cullin Pcu1p when overexpressed, but it is unknown whether this reflects their co-assembly into bona fide SCF complexes. RESULTS: We have identified Psh1p and Pip1p, the fission yeast homologues of human SKP1 and HRT1/RBX1/ROC1, and show that both associate with Pop1p, Pop2p, and Pcu1p into a ~500 kDa SCFPop1p-Pop2p complex, which supports polyubiquitylation of Rum1p. Only the F-box of Pop1p is required for SCFPop1p-Pop2p function, while Pop2p seems to be attracted into the complex through binding to Pop1p. Since all SCFPop1p-Pop2p subunits, except for Pop1p, which is exclusively nuclear, localize to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm, the F-box of Pop2p may be critical for the assembly of cytoplasmic SCFPop2p complexes. In support of this notion, we demonstrate individual SCFPop1p and SCFPop2p complexes bearing ubiquitin ligase activity. CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that distinct homo- and heterooligomeric assemblies of Pop1p and Pop2p generate combinatorial diversity of SCFPop function in fission yeast. Whereas a heterooligomeric SCFPop1p-Pop2p complex mediates polyubiquitylation of Rum1p, homooligomeric SCFPop1p and SCFPop2p complexes may target unknown nuclear and cytoplasmic substrates.
