Structural groups of transcription factors

• Helix-loop-helix eg. MyoD, c-Myc

• Leucin zippers eg. AP-1, CREB

• Zinc-coordinating DNA-binding domains eg. Zinc fingers: nuclear receptors for steroids, thyroid

hormone; GATA factors

• Helix-turn-helix eg. Homeobox; Forkhead / winged helix

• Beta-scaffold factors with minor groove contacts eg.

NFkB, NFAT, STAT, p53

• Others

Functional groups of TFs

• General transcription factors: constitutively active, present in all cells at all times, bind TATA box, form preinitiation complex eg. TFIIA-H

• Specific transcription factors /upstream transcription factors are conditionally active

– Developmental (cell specific) eg. GATA, MyoD, Hox, Winged helix

– Signal-dependent

(9)

Signal-dependent TFs

• Extracellular ligand (eg. nuclear receptors)

• Intracellular ligand (eg. SREBP, p53)

• Cell-membrane receptor dependent

• Resident nuclear (eg. CREB, AP-1, Mef-2)

• Latent cytoplasmic (eg. STAT, NFAT, NFkB,

Notch)

combinatorial control, co-factors, alternative promoters, etc.

Post-transcriptional control

MicroRNAs, alternative splicing, alternative polyadenylation, RNA-binding proteins, etc.

Mechanism of gene regulation

• General transcription factors and the RNA

Polymerase interacts with numerous coregulators (specific transcription factors)

• Activators bind to enhancer elements

• Repressors bind to silencer elements of the DNA

upstream from the TATA box
