[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/USF2_HUMAN USF2_HUMAN] Transcription factor that binds to a symmetrical DNA sequence (E-boxes) (5'-CACGTG-3') that is found in a variety of viral and cellular promoters.
<div style="background-color:#fffaf0;">
== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Upstream stimulating factors (USFs), including USF1 and USF2, are key components of the transcription machinery that recruit coactivators and histone-modifying enzymes. Using the classic basic Helix-Loop-Helix Leucine Zipper (bHLH-LZ) domain, USFs bind the E-box DNA and form tetramers that promote DNA looping for transcription initiation. The structural basis by which USFs tetramerize and to bind DNA , however, remains unknown. Here, we report the crystal structure of the complete bHLH-LZ domain of USF2 in complex with E-box DNA. We observed that the LZ of USF2 is longer than that of other bHLH-LZ family transcription factors and that the C-terminus of USF2 forms an additional alpha-helix following the LZ region (denoted as LZ-Ext). We also found the elongated LZ-Ext facilitates compact tetramer formation. In addition to the classic interactions between the basic region and DNA, we show a highly conserved basic residue in the loop region, Lys271, participates in DNA interaction. Together, these findings suggest that USF2 forms a tetramer structure with a bent elongated LZ-Ext region, providing a molecular basis for its role as a key component of the transcription machinery.
