Nucleosome translational position, not histone acetylation, determines TFIIIA binding to nucleosomal Xenopus laevis 5S rRNA genes.

Abstract:

:We sought to study the binding constraints placed on the nine-zinc-finger protein transcription factor IIIA (TFIIIA) by a histone octamer. To this end, five overlapping fragments of the Xenopus laevis oocyte and somatic 5S rRNA genes were reconstituted into nucleosomes, and it was subsequently shown that nucleosome translational positioning is a major determinant of the binding of TFIIIA to the 5S rRNA genes. Furthermore, it was found that histone acetylation cannot override the TFIIIA binding constraints imposed by unfavorable translational positions.

  • Genetic analysis reveals different functions for the products of the thyroid hormone receptor alpha locus.

    abstract::Thyroid hormone receptors are encoded by the TRalpha (NR1A1) and TRbeta (NR1A2) loci. These genes are transcribed into multiple variants whose functions are unclear. Analysis by gene inactivation in mice has provided new insights into the functional complexity of these products. Different strategies designed to modify...
