CBP-IDRs regulate acetylation and gene expression

Open access

Preprint — published as 10.1016/j.celrep.2026.117109 · Paper page

Abstract

Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) have emerged as crucial regulators of protein function, allowing proteins to sense and respond to their environment. Creb binding protein (CBP) and EP300 (p300) are transcription coactivators that regulate gene expression in multicellular organisms, following their recruitment to cis -regulatory elements. CBP and p300 contain large IDRs, however little is known about how these different IDRs work together to regulate CBP function. Here, we show that CBP-IDRs cooperate to control different aspects of CBP behaviour in the nucleus, by regulating the properties of fluid-like condensates formed by endogenous CBP. We show how IDRs with different sequence properties make unique contributions to CBP behaviour by establishing a balance between positive and negative regulation of CBP condensates. These conflicting interactions are functionally important, shaping CBPs response to factors such as lysine acetylation, that influence condensate formation. When disrupted, regulatory CBP-IDRs change how CBP interacts with chromatin, alter patterns of CBP-dependent histone acetylation and change gene expression. Together, our work highlights how IDRs with different sequences, spatially segregated in the same protein, can cooperate to shape protein function.

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.
