p53 contains a DNA break-binding motif similar to the functional part of BRCT-related region of Rb

Abstract: The BRCT regions are two repeating structures at BRCA1 carboxyl-terminus and are ubiquitous in some proteins involved in DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoints. It was shown that BRCTs of TopBP1, BRCA1, and BRCT-Ws of Rb bound DNA ends and breaks. We indicate here that the C-terminus of p53 tumor suppressor contains a DNA binding motif (residues 327 ± 333 in human), whose features are similar to those of the part of BRCT-W in Rb with DNA binding activity. The short motif was required for the gel retardation act… Show more

“…The structure of RbN contradicts previous predictions from yeast two hybrid and bioinformatics studies (Bork et al, 1997; Hensey et al, 1994; Yamane et al, 2000; Yamane et al, 2001), which identified two independently folded sub-domains, the more amino-terminal of which was deemed to contain a BRCT-like fold. Our structure shows that the two segments generated by limited proteolysis are in fact intimately interacting parts of a single globular entity, so that interaction studies based on one or other of these in isolation must be viewed with considerable caution.…”

“…This central domain of PARP-1 encompasses a BRCT (BRCA1 C-terminus) motif (aa 372-476) involved in interactions with other proteins, including PARP itself, histones (Buki et al, 1995), XRCC1 (Masson et al, 1998), Oct 1 (Nie et al, 1998), HPV18 E2 (Lee et al, 2002), NF-kB p50 and p65 (Hassa et al, 2001), and p53 (Wesierska-Gadek et al, 2003). Comprising about 100 residues, this BRCT motif is ubiquitous in other proteins involved in DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoints, including XRCC1, DNA ligase III (Nashh et al, 1997), XRCC4, DNA ligase IV (Critchlow et al, 1997), and p53 (Yamane et al, 2001), and represents an interface for multimerization and specific protein-protein contacts between protein pairs. Our results showing that PARP-1 neither binds internal sequences of the E2F-1 promoter nor modifies E2F-1 by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is consistent with the fact that PARP-1-E2F-1 binding does not require the DNAbinding domain or the catalytic active site of PARP-1.…”
