abstract = {Transcriptional regulation of the c-fos proto-oncogene requires the serum response element (SRE) which is complexed by a multi-protein assembly observed both in vitro and in vivo. Two protein factors, p67SRF and p62TCF (previously called p62), are required to interact with the SRE for efficient induction of c-fos by serum. By quantitative band shift electrophoresis we measure at least a 50-fold increase in SRE affinity for p67SRF/p62TCF over p67SRF alone. Stoichiometrically we determine that the ternary complex with p62TCF involves p67SRF in dimeric form. We demonstrate that p67SRF is a glycosylated nuclear transcription factor carrying terminal N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) as a post-translational modification. A proteolytic limit digestion product, approximately 13 kd in size, was generated from the p67SRF-SRE complex. This p67SRF-core domain binds SRE, can dimerize with p67SRF and is still able to form a ternary complex with p62TCF. Therefore, three functional activities can be ascribed to this small p67SRF-core domain: specific DNA binding, dimerization and interaction with p62TCF. We demonstrate that these functions map within the p67SRF core fragment containing the region between amino acids 93 and 222.},

abstract = {We have previously isolated and characterized a family of novel 8-kDa cationic antibacterial peptides synthesized by larvae of Phormia terranovae (Diptera) in response to various injuries. These molecules have been named diptericins. The peptide sequence of diptericin A was used to prepare oligonucleotides for screening cDNA libraries and we report in the present paper the isolation of several cDNA clones encoding diptericin. The analysis of the nucleotide sequences indicates that diptericin is synthesized as a prepeptide which is matured in two steps: (a) cleavage of a signal peptide and (b) amidation of the C-terminal residue. Interestingly, the 3' untranslated region of the mRNA contains a consensus sequence TTATTTAT which is also observed in the mRNA of another insect antibacterial peptide (attacin-related sarcotoxin IIA) and in mRNAs encoding proteins related to the inflammatory response in mammals. Our data illustrate that diptericins form a polymorphic family of immune peptides. The transcription of the diptericin genes is rapidly induced in the fat body after inoculation of bacteria, as evidenced by the transcriptional profile.},
