Stoichiometric and steric principles governing repression by nuclear hormone receptors.

Abstract

We have defined two principles of corepressor function that account for differences in transcriptional repression by nuclear hormone receptors (NHRs). First, we have determined that receptor stoichiometry is a crucial determinant of transcriptional repression mediated by the corepressors N-CoR and SMRT. This provides a molecular explanation for the observation that NHRs repress transcription as dimers but not monomers. Second, corepressor function is restricted by steric effects related to DNA binding in a receptor-specific manner. Thus, although N-CoR and SMRT are capable of binding to several NHRs in solution, they are highly selective about receptor binding on DNA, a context that reflects their in vivo function more accurately. These stoichiometric and steric principles govern specific interactions between corepressors and NHRs, thus providing evidence that N-CoR and SMRT do not serve redundant functions but rather contribute to receptor-specific transcriptional repression.

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.
