TYROSINE PHOSPHORYLATED STAT-1/DNA COMPLEX
Contents |
Overview
The crystal structure of the DNA complex of a STAT-1 homodimer has been, determined at 2.9 A resolution. STAT-1 utilizes a DNA-binding domain with, an immunoglobulin fold, similar to that of NFkappaB and the p53 tumor, suppressor protein. The STAT-1 dimer forms a contiguous C-shaped clamp, around DNA that is stabilized by reciprocal and highly specific, interactions between the SH2 domain of one monomer and the C-terminal, segment, phosphorylated on tyrosine, of the other. The, phosphotyrosine-binding site of the SH2 domain in each monomer is coupled, structurally to the DNA-binding domain, suggesting a potential role for, the SH2-phosphotyrosine interaction in the stabilization of DNA, interacting elements.
