STRUCTURAL BASIS FOR COOPERATIVE BINDING OF RIBBON-HELIX-HELIX REPRESSOR OMEGA TO MUTATED DIRECT DNA HEPTAD REPEATSSTRUCTURAL BASIS FOR COOPERATIVE BINDING OF RIBBON-HELIX-HELIX REPRESSOR OMEGA TO MUTATED DIRECT DNA HEPTAD REPEATS

Publication Abstract from PubMedRepressor omega regulates transcription of genes required for copy number control, accurate segregation and stable maintenance of inc18 plasmids hosted by Gram-positive bacteria. omega belongs to homodimeric ribbon-helix-helix (RHH2) repressors typified by a central, antiparallel beta-sheet for DNA major groove binding. Homodimeric omega2 binds cooperatively to promotors with 7 to 10 consecutive non-palindromic DNA heptad repeats (5'-(A)/(T)ATCAC(A)/(T)-3', symbolized by -->) in palindromic inverted, converging (--><--) or diverging (<---->) orientation and also, unique to omega2 and contrasting other RHH2 repressors, to non-palindromic direct (-->-->) repeats. Here we investigate with crystal structures how omega2 binds specifically to heptads in minimal operators with (-->-->) and (--><--) repeats. Since the pseudo-2-fold axis relating the monomers in omega(2) passes the central C-G base pair of each heptad with approximately 0.3 A downstream offset, the separation between the pseudo-2-fold axes is exactly 7 bp in (-->-->), approximately 0.6 A shorter in (--><--) but would be approximately 0.6 A longer in (<---->). These variations grade interactions between adjacent omega2 and explain modulations in cooperative binding affinity of omega2 to operators with different heptad orientations. Structures of omega repressors bound to direct and inverted DNA repeats explain modulation of transcription.,Weihofen WA, Cicek A, Pratto F, Alonso JC, Saenger W Nucleic Acids Res. 2006 Mar 9;34(5):1450-8.
