T1 |
0-60 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Androgen receptor interacts with a novel MYST protein, HBO1. |
T2 |
61-219 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The androgen receptor (AR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, plays a central role in male sexual differentiation and prostate cell proliferation. |
T3 |
220-363 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Results of treating prostate cancer by androgen ablation indicate that signals mediated through AR are critical for the growth of these tumors. |
T4 |
364-578 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Like other nuclear receptors, AR exerts its transcriptional function by binding to cis-elements upstream of promoters and interacting with other transcriptional factors (e.g. activators, repressors and modulators). |
T5 |
579-708 |
Sentence |
denotes |
To determine the mechanism of AR-regulated transcription, we used the yeast two-hybrid system to identify AR-associated proteins. |
T6 |
709-828 |
Sentence |
denotes |
One of the proteins we identified is identical to the human origin recognition complex-interacting protein termed HBO1. |
T7 |
829-922 |
Sentence |
denotes |
A ligand-enhanced interaction between AR and HBO1 was further confirmed in vivo and in vitro. |
T8 |
923-1112 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Immunofluorescence experiments showed that HBO1 is a nuclear protein, and Northern blot analysis revealed that it is ubiquitously expressed, with the highest levels present in human testis. |
T9 |
1113-1256 |
Sentence |
denotes |
HBO1 belongs to the MYST family, which is characterized by a highly conserved C2HC zinc finger and a putative histone acetyltransferase domain. |
T10 |
1257-1441 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Surprisingly, two yeast members of the MYST family, SAS2 and SAS3, have been shown to function as transcription silencers, despite the presence of the histone acetyltransferase domain. |
T11 |
1442-1564 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Using a GAL4 DNA-binding domain assay, we mapped a transcriptional repression domain within the N-terminal region of HBO1. |
T12 |
1565-1696 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Transient transfection experiments revealed that HBO1 specifically repressed AR-mediated transcription in both CV-1 and PC-3 cells. |
T13 |
1697-1796 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These results indicate that HBO1 is a new AR-interacting protein capable of modulating AR activity. |
T14 |
1797-1899 |
Sentence |
denotes |
It could play a significant role in regulating AR-dependent genes in normal and prostate cancer cells. |
