Crystal structure of the Dachshund-homology domain of human SKI
Contents |
Overview
The nuclear protooncoprotein SKI negatively regulates transforming growth, factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling in cell growth and differentiation. It, directly interacts with the Smads and, by various mechanisms, represses, the transcription of TGF-beta-responsive genes. SKI is a multidomain, protein that includes a domain bearing high sequence similarity with the, retinal determination protein Dachshund (the Dachshund homology domain, DHD). The SKI-DHD has been implicated in SMAD-2/3, N-CoR, SKIP, and, PML-RARalpha binding. The 1.65 A crystal structure of the Dachshund, homology domain of human SKI is reported here. The SKI-DHD adopts a mixed, alpha/beta structure which includes features found in the, forkhead/winged-helix family of DNA binding proteins, although SKI-DHD is, not a DNA binding domain. Residues that form a contiguous surface patch on, SKI-DHD are conserved within the Ski/Sno family and with Dachshund, suggesting that this domain may mediate intermolecular interactions common, to these proteins.
