Interaction of grape ASR proteins with a DREB transcription factor in the nucleus

FEBS Lett 582(23-24):7 (2008) PMID 18804467

ASR proteins (abscissic acid, stress, ripening induced) are involved in plant responses to developmental and environmental signals but their biological functions remain to be elucidated. Grape ASR gene (VvMSA) encodes a new transcription factor regulating the expression of a glucose transporter. Here, we provide evidence for some polymorphism of grape ASRs and their identification as chromosomal non-histone proteins. By the yeast two-hybrid approach, a protein partner of VvMSA is isolated and characterized as an APETALA2 domain transcription factor. Interaction of the two proteins is further demonstrated by the BiFC approach and the exclusive nuclear localization of the heterodimer is visualized. Structured summary: MINT-6743067: VvMSA (uniprotkb:Q94G23) and VvDREB (uniprotkb:A6XA90) physically interact (MI:0218) by bimolecular fluorescence complementation (MI:0809) MINT-6743043: VvMSA (uniprotkb:Q94G23) physically interacts (MI:0218) with VvDREB (uniprotkb:A6XA90) by two hybrid (MI:0018)

    We selected three breast cancer cell lines (SKBR3, SUM149 and SUM190) with different oncogene expression levels involved in ERBB2 and EGFR signaling pathways as a model system for the evaluation of selective integration of subsets of transcriptomic and proteomic data. We assessed the oncogene status...

    We provide evidence that association of the budding yeast silent information regulator 3 (Sir3) silencing protein with the nucleosome induces a conformational change in the amino terminus of histone H4 that promotes interactions between the conserved H4 arginines 17 and 19 (R17 and R19) and nucleoso...
