Heterodimers that contain either half site A lesions, or half-site B lesions in both subunits are inactive repressors.
These conditions are consistent with the biological activity of these transcription factors, which induce transcription of sulfur-assimilation genes in response to the demand of sulfur-containing metabolites [ 5 39 40 ] . In another example, several word pairs comprising binding sites for the transcriptional repressors Mig1p and Ume6p were associated with induced gene expression in stationary phase.
Because one binding site remains intact, such mutant-wild-type heterodimers are functional repressors (except in cases where the mutation affects a residue that plays a role in both half-sites).
These ORFs have sequence similarity to a conserved hypothetical protein found in several bacterial genera and the tetR family of transcriptional repressors, respectively.
In transfected cells, subdomains of TAF II 135 can act as dominant negative repressors of CREB activity [ [ 26 27 28 ] ]. It has further been suggested that some neurodegenerative diseases may result from sequestration of TAF II 135 by expanded polyglutamine domains and consequent interference with CREB activity [ 29].
