Simple biochemical features underlie transcriptional activation domain diversity and dynamic, fuzzy binding to Mediator.

Project description:Gene activator proteins comprise distinct DNA-binding and transcriptional activation domains (ADs). Because few ADs have been described, we tested domains tiling all yeast transcription factors for activation in vivo and identified 150 ADs. By mRNA display, we showed that 73% of ADs bound the Med15 subunit of Mediator, and that binding strength was correlated with activation. AD-Mediator interaction in vitro was unaffected by a large excess of free activator protein, pointing to a dynamic mechanism of interaction. Structural modeling showed that ADs interact with Med15 without shape complementarity ('fuzzy' binding). ADs shared no sequence motifs, but mutagenesis revealed biochemical and structural constraints. Finally, a neural network trained on AD sequences accurately predicted ADs in human proteins and in other yeast proteins, including chromosomal proteins and chromatin remodeling complexes. These findings solve the longstanding enigma of AD structure and function and provide a rationale for their role in biology.

A Med15 - Hrp1 complex associates with fission yeast Mediator

Project description:The multiprotein Mediator complex is an important regulator of RNA polymerase II-dependent genes in eukaryotic cell. In contrast to the situation in many other eukaryotes, the conserved Med15 protein is not a stable component of Mediator isolated from fission yeast. We now demonstrate that Med15 exists in a protein complex together with Hrp1, an ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling protein. The Med15/Hrp1 subcomplex is not a component of the core Mediator complex, but can interact with the repressive L-Mediator conformation. Deletion of MED15 and HRP1 cause similar effects on global steady-state levels of mRNA, but only MED15 is required for galactose-dependent activation of the inv1 gene. Hrp1 has been found in complex with other proteins and genome-wide analysis demonstrates that Med15 only associates with a distinct subset of Hrp1-bound gene promoters. Global analysis reveals that Hrp1-binding normally is associated with increased histone H3 density, but at promoters also bound by Med15, histone H3 density is instead increased. Our findings reveal that Med15 functions as a separate entity in fission yeast and indicate that the function and organization of the Mediator complex may differ significantly between eukaryotes.

A mechanism of YAP/TAZ transactivation and dual targeting for cancer therapy

Project description:Transcriptional coactivators of YAP/TAZ play key roles in cancers through transcriptional outputs. However, the mechanisms of their transactivation remain unclear, and effective and safe targeting solutions are lacking. Here, we discovered that YAP/ TAZ possess a hydrophobic transactivation domain (TAD). Knockout of TADs prevents tumor establishment due to growth defects and enhanced immune attack. TADs facilitate preinitiation complex (PIC) assembly by promoting TFIID recruitment in a TAF4-dependent manner and enhance RNA polymerase II (Pol II) elongation through MED15-dependent mediator complex recruitment. The bindings of TAD to the surface hydrophobic groove of MED15 induce its folding of the helix and hydrophobic interactions of TAD-MED15 boosts YAP-MED15 co-condensations thereby enhancing transcriptional hub formation and the expression of an oncogenic and immune suppressive transcriptional program. Synthesized small peptide TJ-M11 selectively disrupts the interactions of TADs with MED15 and TAF4, thereby suppressing tumor growth and sensitizing immunotherapy. This study indicates TADs of YAP/TAZ exhibit dual functions in PIC assembly and Pol II elongation, relying on hydrophobic interactions.

Combinational reasoning of quantitative fuzzy topological relations for simple fuzzy regions.

Project description:In recent years, formalization and reasoning of topological relations have become a hot topic as a means to generate knowledge about the relations between spatial objects at the conceptual and geometrical levels. These mechanisms have been widely used in spatial data query, spatial data mining, evaluation of equivalence and similarity in a spatial scene, as well as for consistency assessment of the topological relations of multi-resolution spatial databases. The concept of computational fuzzy topological space is applied to simple fuzzy regions to efficiently and more accurately solve fuzzy topological relations. Thus, extending the existing research and improving upon the previous work, this paper presents a new method to describe fuzzy topological relations between simple spatial regions in Geographic Information Sciences (GIS) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Firstly, we propose a new definition for simple fuzzy line segments and simple fuzzy regions based on the computational fuzzy topology. And then, based on the new definitions, we also propose a new combinational reasoning method to compute the topological relations between simple fuzzy regions, moreover, this study has discovered that there are (1) 23 different topological relations between a simple crisp region and a simple fuzzy region; (2) 152 different topological relations between two simple fuzzy regions. In the end, we have discussed some examples to demonstrate the validity of the new method, through comparisons with existing fuzzy models, we showed that the proposed method can compute more than the existing models, as it is more expressive than the existing fuzzy models.

The polymorphic PolyQ tail protein of the Mediator Complex, Med15, regulates variable response to stress

Project description:The Mediator is composed of multiple of proteins in the head, body, tail and CDK subunits conserved from yeast to humans. However, not all the components are required for transcription. Components of the tail subunit are not essential but to varying degrees are required for changes in transcription to stress. While some stresses are familiar such as heat, desiccation, and starvation, others are exotic yet elicit a physical stress response. MCHM is a hydrotrope that induces growth arrest in yeast. By exploiting genetic variation, specifically in Med15, between yeast strains, we found that Med15 with the polyQ expansion conferred MCHM sensitivity. This sensitivity was not from a loss of function as the reciprocal hemizygous hybrids were all sensitive, suggesting that there is an incompatibility between Mediator complexes from genetic divergent yeast strains. Transcriptomics from yeast expressing the incompatible Med15 changed expression in diverse pathways. Expansion of polyQ tracts in Med15 resulted in multiple isoforms which were mostly from likely post-translational modifications. Stability of Med15 was dependent on Ydj1, a chaperone and the incompatible Med15 allele was expressed at lower levels and less stable than the compatible Med15 allele. Med15 is tethered to the rest of the Mediator complex via Med2 and 3. Deletion of either Med2 or Med3 changes the Med15 isoform patterns in the in a similar manner whereas deletion of Med5, a distal component of the tail did not change the pattern. The med2 and 3 mutants are similarly sensitive to MCHM while med5 mutants are not. Differences between the Med15 alleles extend to responses to different stresses. Whereas the incompatible allele of Med15 improved growth to chemicals that produce free radicals, and the compatible allele of Med15 improved growth to reducing agents, caffeine, and hydroxyurea. This may reflect the positive and negative role that Med15 has in transcription.
