CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF RUNX-1/AML1/CBFALPHA RUNT DOMAIN BOUND TO A DNA FRAGMENT FROM THE CSF-1R PROMOTER

Overview

The core binding factor (CBF) heterodimeric transcription factors, comprised of AML/CBFA/PEBP2alpha/Runx and CBFbeta/PEBP2beta subunits are, essential for differentiation of hematopoietic and bone cells, and their, mutation is intimately related to the development of acute leukemias and, cleidocranial dysplasia. Here, we present the crystal structures of the, AML1/Runx-1/CBFalpha(Runt domain)-CBFbeta(core, domain)-C/EBPbeta(bZip)-DNA, AML1/Runx-1/CBFalpha(Runt, domain)-C/EBPbeta(bZip)-DNA, and AML1/Runx-1/CBFalpha(Runt domain)-DNA, complexes. The hydrogen bonding network formed among CBFalpha(Runt domain), and CBFbeta, and CBFalpha(Runt domain) and DNA revealed the allosteric, regulation mechanism of CBFalpha(Runt domain)-DNA binding by CBFbeta. The, point mutations of CBFalpha related to the aforementioned diseases were, also mapped and their effect on DNA binding is discussed.
