초록

ATF2는 c-Fos와 c-Jun과 같은 전사인자이며 이들은 루신지퍼 단백질이다. 루신지퍼 단백질은 동형이합체 혹은 이형이합체를 형성하며 promoter 영역에 결합하여 전사조절에 중요한 역할을 한다. 세포의 전사인자 ATF2는 ATF/CRE site에 결합하며 특히 선택적인 interfamily 이형이량체를 형성함으로써 전사 조절에 있어서 다양한 메카니즘을 제공할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 ATF2 cDNA를 6xHis를 가진 expression vector에 subcloning하여 E.cnli BL2l에서 발현시켰다. 6xHis tag은 nickel-chelating chromatography를 가능하게 하였다 발현된 ATF2는 In vitro binding pull-down assay에서 동형이합체를 이를 뿐만 아니라 AP-1 그룹의 인자들과 선택적인 이형이합체를 형성함을 보여 주었다. BATF와는 강하게 결합하였으며 c-Jun과도 안정된 이합체를 형성하였다. 그러나 c-Fos와는 이합체를 형성하지 않으므로서 AP-1그룹 내에서도 이합체 형성이 선택적으로 이루어짐을 알 수 있다.

ATF2 is a cellular transcription factor which belongs to the CREB/ATF class and it is leucine zipper protein which generally binds to DNA as dimers. This paper presents the procedure for subcloning the ATF2 gene and the results of experiment used the expressed ATF2. The pET expression vector was used since it produced 6xHis fusion protein for easy purification using affinity column. The Nickel chelating chromatography was used for Purifying the expressed ATE2 from E- codi BL2l. Subsequen시y In vitro binding pull-down assay showed the binding specificity of ATF2 with AP-1 family factors such as BATF, c-Fos, c-Jun and ATF2 itselgf. ATF2 forms homodimer as well as strong heterodimer with BATF. It also forms stable dimer with c-Jun but barely binds with c-Fos.
