Function

[NMRA_EMENI] May be a redox sensor protein. Has much higher affinity for NAD(P) than for NAD(P)H. Has similar affinity for NAD and NADP. Negative transcriptional regulator involved in the post-transcriptional modulation of the GATA-type transcription factor areA, forming part of a system controlling nitrogen metabolite repression (By similarity). Interferes with the interaction between areA and target DNA. Overexpression leads to areA inhibition.^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] [AREA_EMENI] Transcription activator that binds the consensus DNA element 5'-CGATAG-3' and mediates nitrogen metabolite repression. Activates the transcription of uapA.^[5]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Amongst the most common protein motifs in eukaryotes are zinc fingers (ZFs), which, although largely known as DNA binding modules, also can have additional important regulatory roles in forming protein:protein interactions. AreA is a transcriptional activator central to nitrogen metabolism in Aspergillus nidulans. AreA contains a GATA-type ZF that has a competing dual recognition function, binding either DNA or the negative regulator NmrA. We report the crystal structures of three AreA ZF-NmrA complexes including two with bound NAD(+) or NADP(+). The molecular recognition of AreA ZF-NmrA involves binding of the ZF to NmrA via hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interactions through helices alpha1, alpha6 and alpha11. Comparison with an earlier NMR solution structure of AreA ZF-DNA complex by overlap of the AreA ZFs shows that parts of helices alpha6 and alpha11 of NmrA are positioned close to the GATA motif of the DNA, mimicking the major groove of DNA. The extensive overlap of DNA with NmrA explains their mutually exclusive binding to the AreA ZF. The presence of bound NAD(+)/NADP(+) in the NmrA-AreaA ZF complex, however, causes minimal structural changes. Thus, any regulatory effects on AreA function mediated by the binding of oxidised nicotinamide dinucleotides to NmrA in the NmrA-AreA ZF complex appear not to be modulated via protein conformational rearrangements.

Structural analysis of the recognition of the negative regulator NmrA and DNA by the zinc finger from the GATA-type transcription factor AreA.,Kotaka M, Johnson C, Lamb HK, Hawkins AR, Ren J, Stammers DK J Mol Biol. 2008 Aug 29;381(2):373-82. Epub 2008 Jun 5. PMID:18602114^[6]
