NMR STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN MAD1 TRANSREPRESSION DOMAIN SID IN COMPLEX WITH MAMMALIAN SIN3A PAH2 DOMAINNMR STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN MAD1 TRANSREPRESSION DOMAIN SID IN COMPLEX WITH MAMMALIAN SIN3A PAH2 DOMAIN
Structural highlights
FunctionMAD1_HUMAN Transcriptional repressor. MAD binds with MAX to form a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein complex which recognizes the core sequence 5'-CAC[GA]TG-3'. MAD thus antagonizes MYC transcriptional activity by competing for MAX. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedGene-specific targeting of the Sin3 corepressor complex by DNA-bound repressors is an important mechanism of gene silencing in eukaryotes. The Sin3 corepressor specifically associates with a diverse group of transcriptional repressors, including members of the Mad family, that play crucial roles in development. The NMR structure of the complex formed by the PAH2 domain of mammalian Sin3A with the transrepression domain (SID) of human Mad1 reveals that both domains undergo mutual folding transitions upon complex formation generating an unusual left-handed four-helix bundle structure and an amphipathic alpha helix, respectively. The SID helix is wedged within a deep hydrophobic pocket defined by two PAH2 helices. Structure-function analyses of the Mad-Sin3 complex provide a basis for understanding the underlying mechanism(s) that lead to gene silencing.
