Abstract

Myn, a novel murine approximately 18 kd basic/helix-loop-helix/"leucine zipper" (B/HLH/LZ) protein, forms a specific DNA-binding complex with the c-Myc oncoprotein through the HLH/LZ motif in both proteins. c-Myc/Myn recognizes a c-Myc-binding site (GACCACGTGGTC) with higher affinity than either protein by itself. CpG methylation of the recognition site greatly inhibits DNA binding, suggesting that DNA methylation may regulate the c-Myc/Myn complex in vivo. In 3T3 fibroblasts, Myn mRNA levels are induced several-fold by serum with delayed early kinetics, suggesting regulation by immediate-early gene products. Coexpression of Myn in a myc/ras rat embryo fibroblast focus formation assay specifically augmented c-myc transforming activity. We suggest that interaction of Myn with c-Myc stabilizes sequence-specific DNA binding in vivo.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
