Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate

Pax5(1-149)+Ets-1(331-440)+DNA

Contents

Overview

Pax5 regulates the B cell-specific expression of the mb-1 gene together, with members of the Ets family of transcriptional activators. The Ets, proteins on their own bind poorly to the Pax5/Ets binding site, but can be, recruited to the site by cooperative interactions with Pax5. The structure, of the ETS domain of Ets-1 and the paired domain of Pax5 bound to DNA, reveals the molecular details of the selective recruitment of different, Ets proteins by Pax5. Comparison with structures of Ets-1 alone bound to, both high- and low-affinity DNA sites reveals that Pax5 alters the Ets-1, contacts with DNA. The ability of one protein to alter the DNA, sequence-specific contacts of another provides a general mechanism for, combinatorial regulation of transcription.

Disease
