Tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins make up a large family of coiledcoil-containing RING E3 ligases that function in many cellular processes, particularly innate antiviral response pathways. Both dimerization and higher-order assembly are important elements of TRIM protein function, but the atomic details of TRIM tertiary and quaternary structure have not been fully understood. Here, we present crystallographic and biochemical analyses of the TRIM coiled-coil and show that TRIM proteins dimerize by forming interdigitating antiparallel helical hairpins that position the Nterminal catalytic RING domains at opposite ends of the dimer and the C-terminal substrate-binding domains at the center. The dimer core comprises an antiparallel coiled-coil with a distinctive, symmetric pattern of flanking heptad and central hendecad repeats that appear to be conserved across the entire TRIM family. Our studies reveal how the coiled-coil organizes TRIM25 to polyubiquitylate the RIG-I/viral RNA recognition complex and how dimers of the TRIM5α protein are arranged within hexagonal arrays that recognize the HIV-1 capsid lattice and restrict retroviral replication.antiparallel dimer | disulfide crosslinking | X-ray crystallography T ripartite motif (TRIM) proteins make up the largest superfamily of RING E3 ubiquitin ligases, with more than 100 members in the human proteome (1, 2). TRIM proteins function in a variety of cellular pathways, and many regulate innate immunity and/or mediate antiviral responses. Antiviral TRIMs include TRIM25, which regulates the IFN response to RNA viruses (3, 4), and TRIM5α, which senses and inhibits early stages of retroviral replication (5, 6).TRIM proteins share a common N-terminal domain organization, termed the tripartite or RBCC (RING, B-box, coiled-coil) motif, followed by variable C-terminal protein recognition domains ( Fig. 1 A and B). "Linker" segments of unknown structure typically separate both the RING and B-box domains (L1) and the coiledcoil and terminal effector domains (L2). The coiled-coil region mediates oligomerization, and both homooligomeric and heterooligomeric TRIMs have been described (7-13). Furthermore, many TRIM proteins form higher-order assemblies in vitro and form punctate or fibrous structures in cells (14-16). For example, TRIM5α assembly allows the protein to function as a cytosolic patternrecognition receptor that can intercept the incoming capsids of diverse retroviruses, including HIV-1 (6). This results in species-specific "restriction" of viral replication (5), capsid dissociation (5, 6), and induction of innate immune responses (17). Retroviral capsids are recognized through a remarkable mechanism of multivalent pattern recognition. TRIM5α forms a homodimer (10, 11, 18), which can further assemble into a 2D lattice of linked hexagons (18). The hexagonal TRIM5α net matches the symmetry and spacing of the retroviral capsid surface lattice, thereby positioning multiple C-terminal B30.2/SPRY domains to interact with their repeating binding epitopes on the capsid.Struct...

“…Tox is an HMG box protein that is expressed primarily in the thymus, liver, and brain (37). Trim24 can repress retinoic acid receptor transcriptional activity, and Trim24 deficiency in mice leads to increased retinoic acid signaling associated with development of hepatocellular carcinoma (11), which is more prevalent in male liver, where Trim24 is expressed at a low level compared to that in female liver (23). Accordingly, our finding that Trim24 is positively regulated by CUX2 raises the possibility that CUX2 contributes to the Trim24-dependent protection from hepatocellular carcinoma.…”

The growth hormone-regulated transcription factors STAT5 and BCL6 coordinately regulate sex differences in mouse liver, primarily through effects in male liver, where male-biased genes are upregulated and many female-biased genes are actively repressed. Here we investigated whether CUX2, a highly female-specific liver transcription factor, contributes to an analogous regulatory network in female liver. Adenoviral overexpression of CUX2 in male liver induced 36% of female-biased genes and repressed 35% of male-biased genes. In female liver, CUX2 small interfering RNA (siRNA) preferentially induced genes repressed by adenovirus expressing CUX2 (adeno-CUX2) in male liver, and it preferentially repressed genes induced by adeno-CUX2 in male liver. CUX2 binding in female liver chromatin was enriched at sites of male-biased DNase hypersensitivity and at genomic regions showing male-enriched STAT5 binding. CUX2 binding was also enriched near genes repressed by adeno-CUX2 in male liver or induced by CUX2 siRNA in female liver but not at genes induced by adeno-CUX2, indicating that CUX2 binding is preferentially associated with gene repression. Nevertheless, direct CUX2 binding was seen at several highly female-specific genes that were positively regulated by CUX2, including A1bg, Cyp2b9, Cyp3a44, Tox, and Trim24. CUX2 expression and chromatin binding were high in immature male liver, where repression of adult male-biased genes and expression of adult femalebiased genes are common, suggesting that the downregulation of CUX2 in male liver at puberty contributes to the developmental changes establishing adult patterns of sex-specific gene expression. S ex differences in liver gene expression are widespread and affect a broad range of physiological processes, including steroid and drug metabolism, pheromone binding, and lipid metabolism. Hepatic sex-biased genes are regulated by growth hormone (GH) (35, 49), which is secreted by the pituitary gland in a sex-specific manner in rats, mice, and humans (16,28,44,53). Pituitary GH secretion is highly pulsatile in adult male rats and mice, where strong plasma peaks of GH are followed by periods when GH levels are below detection, whereas GH secretion is more frequent in females, resulting in a more continuous exposure to circulating GH. These sexually dimorphic plasma GH patterns stimulate sex differential patterns of tyrosine phosphorylation/activation and nuclear translocation of the transcription factors STAT5a and STAT5b (collectively, STAT5) (50). Thus, STAT5 activation is persistent in female liver but is intermittent in male liver, where it coincides with the onset of each plasma GH pulse (4, 43, 54). STAT5 positively regulates ϳ90% of male-biased genes and negatively regulates ϳ60% of female-biased genes in male mouse liver (5). STAT5 binding sites are found near 35 to 40% of sex-specific genes, suggesting they are directly regulated by STAT5 (54). However, a majority of sex-specific genes do not respond rapidly to GH-activated STAT5, suggesting indirect regulatory mechani...

ZCCHC6 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/79670) and TRIM24 are transcriptional regulators [48].

Ebola virus (EBOV) causes a highly lethal hemorrhagic fever syndrome in humans and has been associated with mortality rates of up to 91% in Zaire, the most lethal strain. Though the viral envelope glycoprotein (GP) mediates widespread inflammation and cellular damage, these changes have mainly focused on alterations at the protein level, the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the molecular pathogenesis underlying this lethal disease is not fully understood. Here, we report that the miRNAs hsa-miR-1246, hsa-miR-320a and hsa-miR-196b-5p were induced in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) following expression of EBOV GP. Among the proteins encoded by predicted targets of these miRNAs, the adhesion-related molecules tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), dystroglycan1 (DAG1) and the caspase 8 and FADD-like apoptosis regulator (CFLAR) were significantly downregulated in EBOV GP-expressing HUVECs. Moreover, inhibition of hsa-miR-1246, hsa-miR-320a and hsa-miR-196b-5p, or overexpression of TFPI, DAG1 and CFLAR rescued the cell viability that was induced by EBOV GP. Our results provide a novel molecular basis for EBOV pathogenesis and may contribute to the development of strategies to protect against future EBOV pandemics.
