Regulation of the activity of Sp1-related transcription factors.

Abstract:

:The initiation of transcription is accomplished via interactions of many different proteins with common and gene-specific regulatory motifs. Clearly, sequence-specific transcription factors play a crucial role in the specificity of transcription initiation. A group of sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins, related to the transcription factor Sp1, has been implicated in the regulation of many different genes, since binding sites for these transcription factors (GC/GT boxes) are a recurrent motif in regulatory sequences such as promoters, enhancers and CpG islands of these genes. The simultaneous occurrence of several homologous GC/GT box-binding factors precludes a straightforward deduction of their role in transcriptional regulation. In this review, we focus on the connection between functional specificity and biochemical properties including glycosylation, phosphorylation and acetylation of Sp1-related factors.

  • Role of metal ions in ligand-receptor interaction: insights from structural studies.

    abstract::Experimental data indicate that metal ions such as Na(+), Ca(2+) and Mg(2+), which are present in millimolar concentrations in the extracellular environment, modulate binding of ligands to plasma membrane receptors. Here, we briefly review structural studies that demonstrate that various types of ligands, including pe...
