El papel de la curvatura de DNA en la regulación
Clues and consequences of DNA bending in transcription
• Nature of DNA bending. Bendability vs curved DNA• Clues of DNA bending
– Inducer/ inhibitor of protein-DNA interactions– Catalyst of protein-protein interactions– DNA chaperones
• Consequences of DNA bending– Channeling signals through promoter architecture– Helping response-amplification signals– Avoiding transcriptional promiscuity
• DNA bending: A new signal-transduction mechanism?
Curved DNA

Bendability
• Bendability: the ability of specific short sequences to assume preferentially conformations that accommodate the deformation associated with protein-induced bending.
Bendability vs curved DNA
• Curved DNA is deformed even in the absence of external forces, thereby resulting in a very rigid structure.
• Bendable DNA allows a mixture of many different conformational states, the equilibrium of which can be displaced toward one specific form by external forces such as proteins interacting with them.
Protein-mediated DNA bending
• Neutralization of charges in the DNA backbone
• Setting up extended protein-DNA contacts
• Intercalation of protein side chains in the minor groove
Bend DNA is important for DNA-protein interactions
• CAP: Correlation between bendability of CAP site and the affinity of the protein (Gartenberg and Crothers, 1988)
• Bacterial 70-RNA polymerase induces a strong bend in the promoter upon binding (Pérez-Martín and Espinosa, 1994)
• TBP and holo-TFIID bend DNA (Starr et al., 1995)
Clues of DNA bending in transcription
• Inducer/ inhibitor of protein-DNA interactions• Catalyst of protein-protein interactions• DNA chaperones
DNA bending as an inducer or inhibitor of DNA-protein
interactions• Structural synergy:
– Pre-curved CAP DNA binding sites– HMG1 and the human progesterone receptor
• Structural inhibition:– Out of phase RepA-induced bends
Structural synergy at the CAP-binding sites (Kahn and Crothers, 1992)
Structural synergy between HMG1 and PR (Oñate et al., 1994)

Clues of DNA bending in transcription
• Inducer/ inhibitor of protein-DNA interactions• Catalyst of protein-protein interactions• DNA chaperones
DNA chaperones (Travers, 1994)
• DNA chaperones are DNA-bending proteins that stabilize an otherwise loose structure in a particular conformation which sustains the assembly of additional proteins into a higher-order complex, being displaced away from the DNA in the final assembly.

Consequences of DNA bending in transcription
• Channeling signals through promoter architecture
• Helping response-amplification signals• Avoiding transcriptional promiscuity
Channeling signals through promoter architecture
• Co-activation– CAP and MalT– nucleosome in Xenopus vitellogenin B1 promoter
• Anti-repression– CAP in ParaBAD
• Anti-induction– YY1 in c-fos promoter– IHF in nac promoter
