Streszczenie:
Abstract Abstract 1448 Microvesicles (MVs) are submicrometric membrane fragments and they can “hijack” membrane components and engulf cytoplasmic contents from their cellular origin. MVs are enriched in various bioactive molecules of their parental cells, such as proteins, DNA, mRNA and miRNAs. Microvesicles (MVs) released by leukemia cells constitute an important part of the leukemia microenvironment. As a cell-to-cell communication tool, MVs transfer microRNA (miRNA) between cells. MVs miRNAs may also provide an insight in the role of miRNAs playing in the underlying of pathophysiologic processes of various leukemia. We determined the miRNA expression profiles of ALL-derived MVs using Agilent miRNA microarray analysis. The five miRNAs obtained by microarray profiling were validated using real-time PCR. The putative target genes were predicted by bioformation software. We identified 182 and 166 dysregulated miRNAs in MVs derived from Nalm 6 cells and from Jurkat cells, respectively. Both up regulated (123/182 in Nalm 6-MVs and 114/166 in Jurkat- MVs) and down regulated (59/182 in Nalm 6-MVs and 52/166 in Jurkat- MVs) expressions were observed compared with MVs from normal peripheral blood the MVs normal control. When we analyzed those miRNA with bioinformatic tools (TargetScan), we found an interesting phenomenon that presence of 111 zinc fingers genes were regulated by 52 miRNAs, indicating that the ALL-microvesicles were enriched with miRNAs regulating zinc finger proteins. They encompassed zinc fingers and homeoboxes 2, zinc finger, ZZ-type containing 3, zinc finger, SWIM-type containing 1, zinc finger, RAN-binding domain containing 3, zinc finger, NFX1-type containing 1, zinc finger, MYM-type 4, zinc finger, FYVE domain containing 1 and their 5 subtypes; zinc finger, DHHC-type containing16, and other subtypes; zinc finger, CCHC domain containing 14 and 7A, zinc finger, BED-type containing 4; zinc finger protein, X-linked; zinc finger protein, multitype 2; zinc finger protein 81, and their 55 subtypes; zinc finger and SCAN domain containing 18, zinc finger and BTB domain containing 9. ALL-microvesicles were enriched with expression changes of distinct sets of miRNAs regulating zinc finger proteins. This provides clues that genes commonly function together. It is worth noting that 52 miRNA regulating above zinc finger protein genes were up-expressed, suggeting that miRNA regulating zinc fingers were active in ALL-MVs. Zinc finger proteins are important transcriptions in eukaryotes and play roles in regulating gene. Some members of the Zinc finger family have close relationaship with tumour. Zinc finger X-chromosomal protein (Zfx) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZFX gene. The level of Zfx expression correlates with aggressiveness and severity in many cancer types, including prostate cancer, breast cancer, gastric tumoural tissues, and leukemia. [1,2]. Zinc finger and homeoboxes 2 (ZHX2) was target gene of miRNA-1260. The role of miRNA are negatively regulated host gene expressions. ZHX2 inhibits HCC cell proliferation by preventing expression of Cyclins A and E, and reduces growth of xenograft tumors. Loss of nuclear ZHX2 might be an early step in the development of HCC[3]. In our study, the miRNA-1260 were 9 fold higher in ALL MVs. In leukeima microenvironment, ALL-MVs may transfer aberantly expressed miRNAs to their target cell lead to abnormally regulated the zinc finger proteins that may play roles in ALL. In this study, we demonstrated that ALL-microvesicles were enriched with expression changes of distinct sets of miRNAs regulating zinc finger proteins. Futhermore, Zinc fingers were active in ALL-MVs and commonly function together. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

The eukaryotic transcriptional repressor PRDI-BF1 contains five zinc fingers of the C2H2 type, and the protein binds specifically to PRDI, a 14-bp regulatory element of the beta interferon gene promoter. We have investigated the amino acid sequence requirements for specific binding to PRDI and found that the five zinc fingers and a short stretch of amino acids N terminal to the first finger are necessary and sufficient for PRDI-specific binding. The contribution of individual zinc fingers to DNA binding was investigated by inserting them in various combinations into another zinc finger-containing DNA-binding protein whose own fingers had been removed. We found that insertion of PRDI-BF1 zinc fingers 1 and 2 confer PRDI-binding activity on the recipient protein. In contrast, the insertion of PRDI-BF1 zinc fingers 2 through 5, the insertion of zinc finger 1 or 2 alone, and the insertion of zinc fingers 1 and 2 in reverse order did not confer PRDI-binding activity. We conclude that the first two PRDI-BF1 zinc fingers together are sufficient for the sequence-specific recognition of PRDI.

LAC9 is a DNA-binding protein that regulates transcription of the lactose-galactose regulon in Kluyveromyces lactis. The DNA-binding domain is composed of a zinc finger and nearby amino acids (M. M. Witte and R. C. Dickson, Mol. Cell. Biol. 8:3726-3733, 1988). The single zinc finger appears to be structurally related to the zinc finger of many other fungal transcription activator proteins that contain positively charged residues and six conserved cysteines with the general form Cys-Xaa2-Cys-Xaa6-Cys-Xaa6-9-Cys-Xaa2-Cys-Xaa 6-Cys, where Xaan indicates a stretch of the indicated number of any amino acids (R. M. Evans and S. M. Hollenberg, Cell 52:1-3, 1988). The function(s) of the zinc finger and other amino acids in DNA-binding remains unclear. To determine which portion of the LAC9 DNA-binding domain mediates sequence recognition, we replaced the C6 zinc finger, amino acids adjacent to the carboxyl side of the zinc finger, or both with the analogous region from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae PPR1 or LEU3 protein. A chimeric LAC9 protein, LAC9(PPR1 34-61), carrying only the PPR1 zinc finger, retained the DNA-binding specificity of LAC9. However, LAC9(PPR1 34-75), carrying the PPR1 zinc finger and 14 amino acids on the carboxyl side of the zinc finger, gained the DNA-binding specificity of PPR1, indicating that these 14 amino acids are necessary for specific DNA binding. Our data show that C6 fingers can substitute for each other and allow DNA binding, but binding affinity is reduced. Thus, in a qualitative sense C6 fingers perform a similar function(s). However, the high-affinity binding required by natural C6 finger proteins demands a unique C6 finger with a specific amino acid sequence. This requirement may reflect conformational constraints, including interactions between the C6 finger and the carboxyl-adjacent amino acids; alternatively or in addition, it may indicate that unique, nonconserved amino acid residues in zinc fingers make sequence-specifying or stabilizing contacts with DNA.

The small molecules thalidomide, lenalidomide, and pomalidomide induce the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of the transcription factors Ikaros (IKZF1) and Aiolos (IKZF3) by recruiting a Cys2-His2 (C2H2) zinc finger domain to Cereblon (CRBN), the substrate receptor of the CRL4CRBN E3 ubiquitin ligase. We screened the human C2H2 zinc finger proteome for degradation in the presence of thalidomide analogs, identifying 11 zinc finger degrons. Structural and functional characterization of the C2H2 zinc finger degrons demonstrates how diverse zinc finger domains bind the permissive drug-CRBN interface. Computational zinc finger docking and biochemical analysis predict that more than 150 zinc fingers bind the drug-CRBN complex in vitro, and we show that selective zinc finger degradation can be achieved through compound modifications. Our results provide a rationale for therapeutically targeting transcription factors that were previously considered undruggable.

Zinc fingers are among the major structural motifs found in proteins that are involved in eukaryotic gene regulation. Many of these zinc-finger domains are involved in DNA binding. This study investigated whether the zinc-co-ordinating (Cys)2(His)2 motif found in the three zinc fingers of zif268 could be replaced by a (Cys)4 motif while still preserving DNA recognition. (Cys)2(His)2-to-(Cys)4 mutations were generated in each of the three zinc fingers of zif268 individually, as well as in fingers 1 and 3, and fingers 2 and 3 together. Whereas finger 1 and finger 3 tolerate the switch, such an alteration in finger 2 renders the polypeptide incapable of DNA recognition. The protein–DNA interaction was examined in greater detail by using a methylation-interference assay. The mutant polypeptides containing the (Cys)4 motif in fingers 1 or 3 recognize DNA in a manner identical to the wild-type protein, suggesting that the (Cys)4 motif appears to give rise to a properly folded finger. Additional results indicate that a zif268 variant containing a (Cys)2(His)(Ala) arrangement in finger 1 is also capable of DNA recognition in a manner identical to the wild-type polypeptide. This appears to be the first time that such alterations, in the context of an intact DNA-binding domain, have still allowed for specific DNA recognition. Taken together, the work presented here enhances our understanding of the relationship between metal ligation and DNA-binding by zinc fingers.

The Xenopus 5S RNA gene-specific transcription factor IIIA (TFIIIA) has nine consecutive Cys2His2 zinc finger motifs. Studies were conducted in vivo to determine the contribution of each of the nine zinc fingers to the activity of TFIIIA in living cells. Nine separate TFIIIA mutants were expressed in Xenopus embryos following microinjection of their respective in vitro-derived mRNAs. Each mutant contained a single histidine-to-asparagine substitution in the third zinc ligand position of an individual zinc finger. These mutations result in structural disruption of the mutated finger with little or no effect on the other fingers. The activity of mutant proteins in vivo was assessed by measuring transcriptional activation of the endogenous 5S RNA genes. Mutants containing a substitution in zinc finger 1, 2, or 3 activate 5S RNA genes at a level which is reduced relative to that in embryos injected with the message for wild-type TFIIIA. Proteins with a histidine-to-asparagine substitution in zinc finger 5 or 7 activate 5S RNA genes at a level that is roughly equivalent to that of the wild-type protein. Zinc fingers 8 and 9 appear to be critical for the normal function of TFIIIA, since mutations in these fingers result in little or no activation of the endogenous 5S RNA genes. Surprisingly, proteins with a mutation in zinc finger 4 or 6 stimulate 5S RNA transcription at a level that is significantly higher than that mediated by similar concentrations of wild-type TFIIIA. Differences in the amount of newly synthesized 5S RNA in embryos containing the various mutant forms of TFIIIA result from differences in the relative number and/or activity of transcription complexes assembled on the endogenous 5S RNA genes and, in the case of the finger 4 and finger 6 mutants, result from increased transcriptional activation of the normally inactive oocyte-type 5S RNA genes. The remarkably high activity of the finger 6 mutant can be reproduced in vitro when transcription is carried out in the presence of 5S RNA. Disruption of zinc finger 6 results in a form of TFIIIA that exhibits reduced susceptibility to feedback inhibition by 5S RNA and therefore increases the availability of the transcription factor for transcription complex formation.

The Krüppel-associated box (KRAB) zinc finger protein (ZFP) genes comprise one of the largest gene families in the mammalian genome, encoding transcription factors with an N-terminal KRAB domain and C-terminal zinc fingers. The KRAB domain interacts with a co-repressor protein, KAP-1, which can recruit various factors causing transcriptional repression of genes to which KRAB ZFPs bind. Little is currently known about the gene targets of the ~400 human and mouse KRAB ZFPs. Many KRAB ZFPs interact with factors other than KAP-1. To identify proteins that may interact with one particular KRAB ZFP, Zfp647, I previously carried out a yeast two-hybrid screen using the full-length Zfp647 sequence and a mouse embryonic cDNA library. I have now tested the interactions from this screen for their specificity for Zfp647. I show that Zfp647 can interact with itself and at least 20 other KRAB ZFPs through their zinc finger domains, and have confirmed the Zfp647 self-interaction by in vitro co-immunoprecipitation. In my yeast two-hybrid screen, Zfp647 bound to KAP-1 as well as another related protein, ARD1/Trim23. Zfp647 also interacts with proteins that function in ubiquitylation. I have found evidence to suggest that Zfp647 may also interact with proteins encoding jumonji domains both by yeast two-hybrid assay and by co-immunoprecipitation from NIH/3T3 cell extracts. We have previously found that Zfp647 localises to non-heterochromatic nuclear foci in differentiated ES cells, which also contain KAP-1 and HP1, and which lie adjacent to PML nuclear bodies in a high proportion of cells. I have found that these foci are also visible in pMEFs, but not NIH/3T3 tissue culture cells. Immunofluorescence studies with antibodies against proteins from the yeast twohybrid screen have not shown any significant co-localisation with Zfp647. KAP-1 is sumoylated ex vivo, as are two human KRAB ZFPs. Because Zfp647 lies adjacent to PML nuclear bodies and can associate with proteins involved in posttranslational modification, I tested whether Zfp647 is also modified. I characterised a sheep _-Zfp647 antibody previously created in the lab and have shown that it detects Zfp647 by western blot, but not by immunofluorescence. I show that treatment of NIH/3T3 cells with NEM, which prevents the removal of protein modifications, leads to the appearance of higher molecular weight forms of Zfp647. Modification of Zfp647 is not dependent on KAP-1, which is known to function as a SUMO E3 ligase. Attempts to classify the modification as either ubiquitin, SUMO or NEDD8 have suggested that Zfp647 may be mono-ubquitylated. The larger modified forms of Zfp647 are present in both NIH/3T3 and ES cells. Interestingly, I found that the modification profile of the protein changes over the course of ES cell differentiation, during which time Zfp647 relocalises to punctate nuclear foci; thus Zfp647 modification may be involved in this process.

Zinc finger (ZnF) domains are prevalent in eukaryotes and play crucial roles in mediating protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions. This Thesis focuses on the molecular details underlying interactions mediated by two ZnF domains. The GATA-1 protein is vital for the development of erythrocytes and megakaryocytes. Pertinent to the protein function is the N-terminal ZnF. In particular, this domain mediates interaction with DNA containing GATC motifs and the coactivator protein FOG. The importance of these interactions was illustrated by the findings in Chapter 3 that naturally occurring mutations identified in patients suffering from blood disorders affect the interaction of the N-terminal ZnF with either DNA (R216Q mutation) or FOG (V205M and G208S mutations). In addition to the interaction FOG makes with GATA-1, it also interacts with the centrosomal protein TACC3. In Chapter 4, this interaction is characterised in detail. The solution structure of the region of FOG responsible for the interaction is determined using NMR spectroscopy, revealing that it is a true classical zinc finger, and characterisation of the interaction domain of TACC3 showed that the region is a dimeric coiled-coil. The FOG:TACC3 interaction appears to be mediated by a-helices from the two proteins. The data presented here represent some of the first described molecular details of how a classical ZnF can contact a protein partner. Interestingly, the a-helix used by the FOG finger to bind TACC3 is the same region utilised by DNA-binding classical zinc fingers to contact DNA. In addition to the multiple roles played by ZnFs, this domain is also known for its robustness and versatility. In Chapter 5, incomplete ZnF sequences were assessed for its ability to form functional zinc-binding domains. Remarkably, CCHX sequences (in the context of BKLF finger 3) were able to form discrete zinc-binding domains and also, mediate both protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions. This result not only illustrates the robust nature of ZnFs, it highlights the need for expanding ZnF sequence criteria when searching for functional zinc-binding modules. Together, the data presented here help further our understanding of zinc finger domains. Similar to the use of DNA-binding ZnFs in designer proteins, these data may start us on the path of designing novel protein-binding ZnFs.

Streszczenie:
Monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) plays a critical role in the development of cardiovascular diseases. How MCP-1 contributes to the development of heart disease is not understood. We present evidence that MCP-1 causes death in cardiac myoblasts, H9c2 by inducing oxidative stress, ER stress and autophagy via a novel Zn-finger protein, MCP-1 induced protein (MCPIP). MCPIP expression caused cell death and knockdown of MCPIP, attenuated MCP-1 induced cell death. Expression of MCPIP resulted in induction of iNOS and production of reactive oxygen (ROS). It caused induction of NADPH oxidase subunit phox47 and its translocation to the cytoplasmic membrane. Oxidative stress led to the induction of ER stress markers HSP40, PDI, GRP78 and IRE1α. ER stress lead to autophagy as indicated by beclin-1 induction, cleavage of LC3 to LCII and autophagolysosome formation. Here, MCPIP-induced processes lead to apoptosis as indicated by caspase 3 activation and TUNEL assay. This cell death involved caspase 2 and caspase 12 as specific inhibitors of these caspases prevented MCPIP-induced cell death. Inhibitors of oxidative stress inhibited ER stress, and cell death. Specific inhibitors of ER stress inhibited autophagy and cell death. Inhibition of autophagy inhibited cell death. Microarray analysis showed that MCPIP expression caused induction of a variety of genes known to be involved in cell death. MCPIP caused activation of JNK and p38 and induction of p53 and PUMA. These results collectively suggest that MCPIP induces ROS/RNS production that causes ER stress which leads to autophagy and apoptosis through caspase 2/12 and IRE1α –JNK/p38-p53-PUMA pathway. These results provide the first molecular insights into the mechanism by which elevated MCP-1 levels associated with chronic inflammation may contribute to the development of heart failure. A role for inflammation and MCP-1 in obesity and diabetes has been implicated. Adipogenesis is a key process involved in obesity and associated diseases such as type 2 diabetes. This process involves temporally regulated genes controlled by a set of transcription factors, C/EBPβ, C/EBPδ, C/EBPα, and PPARγ. Currently PPARγ is considered the master regulator of adipogenesis as no known factor can induce adipogenesis without PPARγ. We present evidence that a novel Zn-finger protein, MCPIP, can induce adipogenesis without PPARγ. Classical adipogenesis-inducing medium induces MCP-1 production and MCPIP expression in 3T3-L1 cells before the induction of the C/EBP family of transcription factors and PPARγ. Knockdown of MCPIP prevents their expression and adipogenesis. Treatment of 3T3-L1 cells with MCP-1 or forced expression of MCPIP induces expression of C/EBPβ, C/EBPδ, C/EBPα, PPARγ and adipogenesis without any other inducer. Forced expression of MCPIP induces adipogenesis in PPARγ-/- fibroblasts. Thus, MCPIP is a newly identified master controller that can induce adipogenesis without PPARγ. Heart failure is a major cause of death in diabetic patients. Hyperglycemia is a major factor associated with diabetes that causes cardiomyocyte apoptosis that leads to diabetic cardiomyopathy. Cardiomyoycte apoptosis is a key event involved in the pathophysiological progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy. We have recently found that in ischemic hearts, MCP-1 can induce the zinc-finger protein, MCP-1 induced protein (MCPIP) that causes cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Although there is evidence that inflammation may play a role in diabetic cardiomyopathy, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. In this study, we show that treatment of H9c2 cardiomyoblasts and Neonatal Rat Ventricular Myocytes (NRVM) with 28mmol/L glucose concentration results in the induction of both transcript and protein levels of MCP-1 and MCPIP. Inhibition of MCP-1 interaction with CCR2 via specific antibody or with the G-coupled receptor inhibitors propagermanium and pertussis toxin attenuated glucose-induced cell death. Knockdown of MCPIP with specific siRNA yielded similar results. Treatment of cells with 28mmol/L glucose resulted in increased ROS production and phox47 activation. Knockdown of MCPIP attenuated these effects. The increased ROS production observed in H9c2 cardiomyoblasts and NRVM’s resulted in increased ER stress proteins GRP78 and PDI. Knockdown of MCPIP attenuated expression of both GRP78 and PDI. Inhibition of ER stress with TUDC and 4’PBA prevented high glucose-induced cell death death. Treatment of cells with 28mmol/l glucose resulted in autophagy as determined by an increase in expression of beclin-1 and through increased cleavage of LC3I to LC3II. Knockdown of MCPIP attenuated expression of beclin-1 and prevented cleavage of LC3. Addition of the autophagy inhibitors 3’methyladenine and LY294002 attenuated high glucose-induced H9c2 cardiomyoblast death. We conclude that high glucose-induced H9c2 cardiomyoblast death is mediated via MCP-1 induction of MCPIP that results in ROS that leads to ER stress that causes autophagy and eventual apoptosis.

Streszczenie:
Pepper exhibits large natural variation in chlorophyll content in the immature fruit. To dissect the genetic and molecular basis of this variation, we conducted QTL mapping for chlorophyll content in a cross between light and dark green-fruited parents, PI 152225 and 1154. Two major QTLs, pc1 and pc10, that control chlorophyll content by modulation of chloroplast compartment size in a fruit-specific manner were detected in chromosomes 1 and 10, respectively. The pepper homolog of GOLDEN2- LIKE transcription factor (CaGLK2) was found as underlying pc10, similar to its effect on tomato fruit chloroplast development. A candidate gene for pc1was found as controlling chlorophyll content in pepper by the modulation of chloroplast size and number. Fine mapping of pc1 aided by bulked DNA and RNA-seq analyses enabled the identification of a zinc finger transcription factor LOL1 (LSD-One-Like 1) as a candidate gene underlying pc1. LOL1 is a positive regulator of oxidative stress- induced cell death in Arabidopsis. However, over expression of the rice ortholog resulted in an increase of chlorophyll content. Interestingly, CaAPRR2 that is linked to the QTL and was found to affect immature pepper fruit color in a previous study, did not have a significant effect on chlorophyll content in the present study. Verification of the candidate's function was done by generating CRISPR/Cas9 knockout mutants of the orthologues tomato gene, while its knockout experiment in pepper by genome editing is under progress. Phenotypic similarity as a consequence of disrupting the transcription factor in both pepper and tomato indicated its functional conservation in controlling chlorophyll content in the Solanaceae. A limited sequence diversity study indicated that null mutations in CaLOL1 and its putative interactorCaMIP1 are present in C. chinensebut not in C. annuum. Combinations of mutations in CaLOL1, CaMIP1, CaGLK2 and CaAPRR2 are required for the creation of the extreme variation in chlorophyll content in Capsicum.

Streszczenie:
Citrus, like many other tropical and subtropical fruit are sensitive to chilling temperatures. However, application of a pre-storage temperature conditioning (CD) treatment at 16°C for 7 d or of a hot water brushing (HWB) treatment at 60°C for 20 sec remarkably enhances chilling tolerance and reduces the development of chilling injuries (CI) upon storage at 5°C. In the current research, we proposed to identify and characterize grapefruit genes that are induced by CD, and may contribute to the acquisition of fruit chilling tolerance, by two different molecular approaches: cDNA array analysis and PCR cDNA subtraction. In addition, following the recent development and commercialization of the new Affymetrix Citrus Genome Array, we further performed genome-wide transcript profiling analysis following exposure to CD and chilling treatments. To conduct the cDNA array analysis, we constructed cDNA libraries from the peel tissue of CD- and HWB-treated grapefruit, and performed an EST sequencing project including sequencing of 3,456 cDNAs from each library. Based on the obtained sequence information, we chose 70 stress-responsive and chilling-related genes and spotted them on nylon membranes. Following hybridization the constructed cDNA arrays with RNA probes from control and CD-treated fruit and detailed confirmations by RT-PCR analysis, we found that six genes: lipid-transfer protein, metallothionein-like protein, catalase, GTP-binding protein, Lea5, and stress-responsive zinc finger protein, showed higher transcript levels in flavedo of conditioned than in non-conditioned fruit stored at 5 ᵒC. The transcript levels of another four genes: galactinol synthase, ACC oxidase, temperature-induced lipocalin, and chilling-inducible oxygenase, increased only in control untreated fruit but not in chilling-tolerant CD-treated fruit. By PCR cDNA subtraction analysis we identified 17 new chilling-responsive and HWB- and CD-induced genes. Overall, characterization of the expression patterns of these genes as well as of 11 more stress-related genes by RNA gel blot hybridizations revealed that the HWB treatment activated mainly the expression of stress-related genes(HSP19-I, HSP19-II, dehydrin, universal stress protein, EIN2, 1,3;4-β-D-glucanase, and SOD), whereas the CD treatment activated mainly the expression of lipid modification enzymes, including fatty acid disaturase2 (FAD2) and lipid transfer protein (LTP). Genome wide transcriptional profiling analysis using the newly developed Affymetrix Citrus GeneChip® microarray (including 30,171 citrus probe sets) revealed the identification of three different chilling-related regulons: 1,345 probe sets were significantly affected by chilling in both control and CD-treated fruits (chilling-response regulon), 509 probe sets were unique to the CD-treated fruits (chilling tolerance regulon), and 417 probe sets were unique to the chilling-sensitive control fruits (chilling stress regulon). Overall, exposure to chilling led to expression governed arrest of general cellular metabolic activity, including concretive down-regulation of cell wall, pathogen defense, photosynthesis, respiration, and protein, nucleic acid and secondary metabolism. On the other hand, chilling enhanced various adaptation processes, such as changes in the expression levels of transcripts related to membranes, lipid, sterol and carbohydrate metabolism, stress stimuli, hormone biosynthesis, and modifications in DNA binding and transcription factors.
