Abstract

To determine the number of DNA binding proteins capable of binding a consensus Engrailed binding site, this consensus sequence was used to screen a library of Drosophila cDNA clones in a bacteriophage expression vector. We retrieved clones encoding 20 distinct DNA binding domains, 17 of which are homeodomains. Binding to a variety of oligonucleotides confirms the related sequence specificity of the retrieved binding domains. Nonetheless, the homeodomains have remarkably diverse amino acid sequences. We conclude that during the evolutionary divergence of homeodomains, the specificity of DNA binding has been much more highly conserved than the amino acid sequence.

摘要

为了确定能够结合共有Engrailed结合位点的DNA结合蛋白的数量,该共有序列被用于筛选噬菌体表达载体中的果蝇cDNA克隆文库。我们获得了编码20个不同DNA结合结构域的克隆,其中17个是同源结构域。与多种寡核苷酸的结合证实了所获得的结合结构域具有相关的序列特异性。尽管如此,同源结构域的氨基酸序列却有显著差异。我们得出结论,在同源结构域的进化分歧过程中,DNA结合的特异性比氨基酸序列的保守程度要高得多。
