Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel transcriptional regulator having a promoter domain and its gene.
- the bromodomain is a characteristic amino acid motif found in transcription factors, and is thought to be involved in interactions with other transcription factors. Usually, one or two proteins having a promoter domain (Tamkun JW et al. (1992). Nuc. Acids. Res., 20, 2603, Haynes SRetal. (1992). Nuc. Acids. Res., 20 , 2603), or 5 (Nicolas RH and Goodwin GH. (1996). Gene, 175 (12), 233-240). This motif can be found in a wide range of animals, including the homeogene in Drosophila (Digan ME et al. (1986). Dev. Biol., 114, 161-169; Tamkun JWetal. (1992).
- CBP / P300 interacts with and regulates p53 (Gu et al. (1997) Nature 387, 819-823, Lill et al. (1997) Nature 387, 823-827) and various other transcription factors. This suggests that CBP and its highly homologous P300 play a key role in cancer.
- BRG1 interacts with the tumor suppressor gene, retinoblastoma protein Rb (Dunaief et al. (1994) Cell 79, 119-130), monolayers and induces the formation of cells that have stopped growing. Shows inhibitory activity.
- RING3 is homologous to the Drosophila growth control protein fsh (Haynes et al. (1989). Dev. Biol., 134, 246-257) and has serine-threonine with nuclear autophosphorylation activity.
- Kinase This activity has been reported to be associated with a proliferative phase in chronic and acute lymphocytic leukemia. (Denis and Green, (1996).
- P / CAF inhibits the interaction between E1A and P300 / CBP (Yang et al, (1996). Nature, 382, 319-324).
- Exogenous expression of P / CAF in HeLa cells inhibits cell cycle progression. This is thought to be due to a mechanism whereby P / CAF binds to p300 / CBP, thereby disrupting the transcriptional control of E1A.
- P / CAF has been reported to have histone acetyltransferase activity (Yang et al. 1996). Nature, 382, 319-324).

For this reason, transcriptional regulators containing bromodomains have recently attracted attention as new targets for the treatment of cancer and other proliferative diseases. Disclosure of the invention
- the present invention provides a novel transcriptional regulator having a bromodomain, its gene, a method for producing the same, and a method for screening a drug candidate compound using the same.
- the present inventors first performed a BLAST search on an EST database using various base sequences encoding known promo domain motifs.
- a search using the base sequence of the Tetrahymena thermophila HAT A1 gene revealed several ESTs that could encode a bromodomain gene.
- One of these ESTs the EST from the fetal lung cDNA library (W17142), encoded an unknown gene.
- W17142 the fetal lung cDNA library
- an attempt was made to isolate a full-length cDNA against ESTW17142.
- a primer was designed based on the sequence of ESTW17142, and a polymerase chain reaction was performed using the testis cDNA as a type II to obtain an amplification product.
- This amplification product is then used as a probe. Then, the testis cDNA library was screened, and the library was rescreened using a cDNA clone having the above EST sequence. As a result, we succeeded in isolating the full-length cDNA for ESTW17142.
- the present inventors also analyzed the structure of the protein encoded by the isolated cDNA, and found that the protein has several regions and domains conserved in the transcriptional regulatory factor in addition to the promo domain. I found that.
- hSNF2H and hSNF2L which are suggested to be involved in a series of processes of the chromatin-mediated transcription control mechanism, and that various proteins such as nuclear receptors VDR, RAR) was found to interact with the transcriptional co-activator-NCoA-62 / Skip, which interacts with Ski, which is a ligand-binding oncoprotein oncoprotein.
- the transcription regulatory factor and its gene discovered by the present inventors can be used for screening for a compound that inhibits the binding between the transcription regulatory factor and a factor that interacts with the transcription regulatory factor and a compound that controls the activity thereof.
- the compounds isolated by this screening are expected to be applied to pharmaceuticals.
- the present invention relates to a novel transcription regulatory factor having a promoter domain and a gene thereof, and their production and screening of related factors and drug candidate compounds using the same.

- Consists of the transcriptional regulator according to any one of (1) to (5) which can be isolated by the method described in (13), hSNF2H, hSNF2L, NCoA-62 / Skip, and other homologues thereof.
- transcription regulatory factor refers to a protein that regulates gene expression.
- promo domain refers to a motif of amino acids involved in protein-protein interaction that is conserved in transcriptional regulators involved in signal-dependent transcription.
- the present invention relates to a novel transcription factor having a promoter domain.
- the amino acid sequence of the protein designated as “TCoAl” and the amino acid sequence of its variant contained in the transcription regulatory factor of the present invention are shown in SEQ ID NOS: 1 and 10, respectively, and the nucleotide sequence of its cDNA is shown in SEQ ID NO: These are shown in 2 and 9 (hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, these are collectively referred to as “TCoAl”).
- “TCoAl” is a C.
- Elegans chromosome III gene whose function is unknown, identified from the genomic sequence of one cosmid F26H11 F26H11.2, F26H11.3a and F26H11.3b (Wilson at al , (1994) Nature, 368, 32-38). Comparing the amino acid sequences of these two putative nematode proteins and the “TCoAl” protein, they are very similar proteins with different domain arrangements. Like many promodomain proteins, “TCoAl” retains a single bromodomain. Similar to the structure of the TIF family, GCN5 and P / CAF, this domain is located close to the carboxy terminus (Jeanmouginetal. (1997). Trends Biochem. Sci. 22, 15, 153).
- ToAl contains other promo domain proteins Similarly, there is a C4HC3 zinc finger. Combinations of promodomains and C4HC3 zinc fingers have previously been frequently found at several leukemia gene breakpoints (Tkachuketal. (1992). Cell, 71, 691-700, Gu et al. (1992) Cell, 71, 701-708, Miki et al. (1991) Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., 88, 5167-5171, Le Douarin et al. (1995) EMBO J. 14, 2020-2033. Borrow et al. (1996). Nature Genet., 14, 33-41). Therefore, TCoAlj is a candidate for a truncated gene involved in chromosome 17q23.
- ToAl has many nuclear transport signal motifs. This means
- ToAl indicates that the protein is localized in the nucleus. Like other promodomain proteins, TCoAl contains a series of LXXLL motifs that are predicted to define sites that interact with nuclear receptors (Heery et al. (1997). Trends Biochem. Sci. 22, 151-153, Torchia et al. (1997). Nature 387, 677-684). Interaction with the ligand-bound receptor via the LXXLL domain suggests that “TCoAl” functions as a transcriptional coactivator vector. Also,
- Glutamin-rich domains can be found in p300 / CBP (Shikama et al. (1997) Trends in Cell Biol. 2, 230-236) and fsh of drosophila (Haynes et al. (1989). Biol., 134, 246-257), and have been identified in a number of transcription factors, including proteins with a promo domain. These acidic regions are predicted to be involved in protein-protein interactions that define their function as active substances (Courey et al. (1989) Cell 59, 827-836).
- the “TCoAl” protein has many features in common with other bromodomain proteins known to be associated with proliferative diseases such as cancer. Therefore, the “TCoAl” protein is also considered to be associated with cancer, and the “TCoAl” protein and its gene, and compounds that regulate the function of the “TCoAl” protein, etc. It can be applied to prevention.
- hSNF2H and hSNF2L interacting with ⁇ TCoAl '' are involved in a series of processes of the chromatin-mediated transcriptional control mechanism, it strongly suggests that the protein plays a role in chromatin-mediated transcriptional control. That is what you do. Therefore, TCoAl is considered to play a major role as a protein that integrates the transcriptional response to nuclear receptors by relating to the chromatin remodeling mechanism.
