The TATA box-binding protein (TBP) is required by all three eukaryotic RNA polymerases for correct initiation of transcription of ribosomal, messenger, small nuclear, and transfer RNAs. The cocrystal structure of the C-terminal/core region of human TBP complexed with the TATA element of the adenovirus major late promoter has been determined at 1.9 angstroms resolution. Structural and functional analyses of the protein-DNA complex are presented, with a detailed comparison to our 1.9-angstroms resolution structure of Arabidopsis thaliana TBP2 bound to the same TATA box.

TATA Binding Protein Overview

The TBP has two imperfect direct repeats that form a shaped structure forming a concave like DNA binding surface allowing for an induced-fit mechanism. The imperfect direct repeats differ by two residues. The first is a deletion of a resiude at the end of helix H1. The second is a proline in helix H2' that enables a that does not occur on H2. When the TBP binds to the TATA box a conformation change takes place and the DNA strand is 80 degrees. This conformational change promotes the recruitment of other general transcription factors. A total of seven residues interact with DNA backbone. Four of these residues Lys-204, Lys-214, Lys-295, and Lys 305 allow for the patial charge neutralization within the TATA box. Serveral arginines also interact with the DNA strand these residues include: , Arg-199, Arg-290. The TBP is crucual protien that recognizes the promoter region of DNA and allows for other general transcription factors to bind and form a complex which can eventually lead to transcripton.
