MEF2 and NKX2-5 transcription factors interact with each other in cardiogenesis and are necessary for normal heart formation.

These crystal structures are the first example of human MADS-box/homeobox ternary complex structures involved in cardiogenesis. Our structures reveal two possible modes of interactions between MEF2 and NKX2-5: MEF2 and NKX bind to adjacent DNA sites to recognize DNA in cis; and MEF2 and NKX bind to different DNA strands to interact with each other in trans via a conserved protein-protein interface observed in both crystal forms. Disease-related mutations are mapped to the observed protein-protein interface. Our structural studies provide a starting point to understand and further study the molecular mechanisms of the interactions between MEF2 and NKX2.5 and their roles in cardiogenesis. | |||
