Function

[MTAL2_YEAST] Mating type proteins are sequence specific DNA-binding proteins that act as master switches in yeast differentiation by controlling gene expression in a cell type-specific fashion. Transcriptional corepressor that binds cooperatively with MCM1 to a 31-basepair DNA sequence termed the a-specific gene (asg) operator, to repress the transcription of a-cell-specific genes. Additionally, in a/alpha diploid cells, binds cooperatively with the A1 protein to a 21-basepair DNA sequence termed the haploid-specific gene (hsg) operator, to repress transcription of haploid-specific genes and of MATALPHA1.^[1] [MCM1_YEAST] Transcription factor required for the efficient replication of minichromosomes and the transcriptional regulation of early cell cycle genes. Activates transcription of ECB-dependent genes during the G1/M phase. Genes that contain a ECB (early cell box) element in their transcription regulatory region are transcribed only during G1/M phases. Interacts with the alpha-2 repressor or with the alpha-1 activator thereby regulating the expression of mating-type-specific genes. With ARG80, ARG81 and ARG82, coordinates the expression of arginine anabolic and catabolic genes in response to arginine.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The structure of a complex containing the homeodomain repressor protein MATalpha2 and the MADS-box transcription factor MCM1 bound to DNA has been determined by X-ray crystallography at 2.25 A resolution. It reveals the protein-protein interactions responsible for cooperative binding of MATalpha2 and MCM1 to DNA. The otherwise flexible amino-terminal extension of the MATalpha2 homeodomain forms a beta-hairpin that grips the MCM1 surface through parallel beta-strand hydrogen bonds and close-packed, predominantly hydrophobic, side chains. DNA bending induced by MCM1 brings the two proteins closer together, facilitating their interaction. An unusual feature of the complex is that an eight-amino-acid sequence adopts an alpha-helical conformation in one of two copies of the MATalpha2 monomer and a beta-strand conformation in the other. This 'chameleon' sequence of MATalpha2 may be important for recognizing natural operator sites.
