IPR003101

Description

IPR003101 is a Coactivator CBP, KIX domain.

<p>Transcriptional activators are believed to stimulate gene expression via protein-protein interactions with the basal machinery. The cAMP-regulated transcription factor CREB has been shown to stimulate target gene expression, in part by associating with the coactivator paralogues p300 and CREB binding protein (CBP). CBP and P300 bind to the Ser-133-phosphorylated kinase-inducible domain (KID) of CREB via a region of approximately 90 residues referred to as the KIX domain, which is highly conserved in CBP homologues from Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster. In addition to CREB, the KIX domain of CBP also recognises the transactivation domains of other nuclear factors, including Myb, Jun, cubitus interruptus, and HTLV-1 virally encoded Tax protein. Thus the KIX domain appears to be a common docking site on CBP for many transcriptional activators. The KIX domain is found in association with other domains, such as the bromodomain, the ZZ-type zinc finger, or the TAZ-type zinc finger [[cite:PUB00018422], [cite:PUB00006396]].</p> <p>The KIX domain of CBP is composed of three mutually interacting α helices, designated alpha1, alpha2 and alpha3, and two short 3(10) helices G1 and G2, that together with the interconnecting loops define a compact structural domain with an extensive hydrophobic core. Helices alpha1 and alpha3 constitute the primary interacting surface for the phosphorylated KID domain (pKID), forming a hydrophobic patch on the protein surface that is large enough to accommodate up to 3 turns of an amphipathic α helix, designated alphaB, in pKID. A second α helix in pKID, referred to as alphaA, interacts with a different face of the alpha3 helix of KIX. The two helices of pKID are arranged at an angle of about 90 degree and essentially wrap around the alpha3 helix of KIX [[cite:PUB00018422], [cite:PUB00006396]].</p>

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Molecular function Transcription coregulator activity A protein or a member of a complex that interacts specifically and non-covalently with a DNA-bound DNA-binding transcription factor to either activate or repress the transcription of specific genes. Coregulators often act by altering chromatin structure and modifications. For example, one class of transcription coregulators modifies chromatin structure through covalent modification of histones. A second ATP-dependent class modifies the conformation of chromatin. A third class modulates interactions of DNA-binding transcription factor with other transcription coregulators.
Biological process Regulation of transcription, DNA-templated Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription.
