    Abstract Protein interactions underlie most molecular events in biology. Many methods have been developed to identify protein partners, to measure the affinity with which these biomolecules interact and to characterise the structures of the complexes. Each approach has its own advantages and limitations, and it can be difficult for the newcomer to determine which methodology would best suit their system. This review provides an overview of many of the techniques most widely used to identify protein partners, assess stoichiometry and binding affinity, and determine low-resolution models for complexes. Key methods covered include: yeast two-hybrid analysis, affinity purification mass spectrometry and proximity labelling to identify partners; size-exclusion chromatography, scattering methods, native mass spectrometry and analytical ultracentrifugation to estimate stoichiometry; isothermal titration calorimetry, biosensors and fluorometric methods (including microscale thermophoresis, anisotropy/polarisation, resonance energy transfer, AlphaScreen, and differential scanning fluorimetry) to measure binding affinity; and crosslinking and hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to probe the structure of complexes.

    Abstract Transcription factors are among the classes of proteins with the highest levels of disorder. Investigation of these regulatory proteins is uncovering not just the mechanisms that underlie gene regulation, but relationships that apply to all intrinsically disordered proteins. Recent studies confirm that binding does not necessarily induce folding but that when it does, it tends to follow induced fit mechanisms. Other work emphasises the importance of electrostatics to interactions involving intrinsically disordered proteins, and roles of intrinsic disorder in phase transitions. All these features help direct transcription factors to target sites in the genome to upregulate or downregulate transcription.

    Abstract Eukaryotic transcription factors up-regulate and down-regulate the expression of genes in a very controlled manner. The DNA-binding domains of these proteins have quite well established mechanisms for binding to DNA, but a surprisingly poor intrinsic ability to discriminate target and variant non-target DNA sequences. Here, we summarise established mechanisms of protein-DNA recognition, as specified by both macromolecules. We also review recent advances in the fields of genome binding, molecular dynamics and biomolecular interaction studies that bring us close to a full understanding of how eukaryotic transcription factors find and target DNA in vivo to form functional centres of gene regulation through networks of protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions.

    Abstract The roles of ISL1 and LHX3 in the development of spinal motor neurons have been well established. Whereas LHX3 triggers differentiation into interneurons, the additional expression of ISL1 in developing neuronal cells is sufficient to redirect their developmental trajectory towards spinal motor neurons. However, the underlying mechanism of this action by these transcription factors is less well understood. Here, we used electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to probe the different DNA-binding behaviours of these two proteins, both alone and in complexes mimicking those found in developing neurons, and found that ISL1 shows markedly different binding properties to LHX3. We used small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to structurally characterise DNA-bound species containing ISL1 and LHX3. Taken together, these results have allowed us to develop a model of how these two DNA-binding modules coordinate to regulate gene expression and direct development of spinal motor neurons.

    Abstract The repair of double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) by homologous recombination is crucial in the maintenance of genome integrity. While the key role of the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) complex in repair is well known, hSSB1 (SOSSB and OBFC2B), one of the main components of the sensor of single-stranded DNA (SOSS) protein complex, has also been shown to rapidly localize to DSB breaks and promote repair. We have previously demonstrated that hSSB1 binds directly to Nbs1, a component of the MRN complex, in a DNA damage-independent manner. However, recruitment of the MRN complex has also been demonstrated by an interaction between Integrator Complex Subunit 3 (INTS3; also known as SOSSA), another member of the SOSS complex, and Nbs1. In this study, we utilize a combined approach of in silico, biochemical, and functional experiments to uncover the molecular details of INTS3 binding to Nbs1. We demonstrate that the forkhead-associated domain of Nbs1 interacts with INTS3 via phosphorylation-dependent binding to INTS3 at Threonine 592, with contributions from Serine 590. Based on these data, we propose a model of MRN recruitment to a DSB via INTS3.

    Abstract Bromodomains (BDs) regulate gene expression by recognizing protein motifs containing acetyllysine. Although originally characterized as histone-binding proteins, it has since become clear that these domains interact with other acetylated proteins, perhaps most prominently transcription factors. The likely transient nature and low stoichiometry of such modifications, however, has made it challenging to fully define the interactome of any given BD. To begin to address this knowledge gap in an unbiased manner, we carried out mRNA display screens against a BD-the N-terminal BD of BRD3-using peptide libraries that contained either one or two acetyllysine residues. We discovered peptides with very strong consensus sequences and with affinities that are significantly higher than typical BD-peptide interactions. X-ray crystal structures also revealed modes of binding that have not been seen with natural ligands. Intriguingly, however, our sequences are not found in the human proteome, perhaps suggesting that strong binders to BDs might have been selected against during evolution.
