  1. Manifestation of Novel Social Challenges of the European Unionin the Teaching Material ofMedical Biotechnology Master’s Programmesat theUniversity of Pécs and at the University of Debrecen Identificationnumber: TÁMOP-4.1.2-08/1/A-2009-0011

  2. Manifestation of Novel Social Challenges of the European Unionin the Teaching Material ofMedical Biotechnology Master’s Programmesat theUniversity of Pécs and at the University of Debrecen Identification number: TÁMOP-4.1.2-08/1/A-2009-0011 Tímea Berki and Ferenc Boldizsár Signaltransduction TranscriptionFactors

  3. Structuralgroups of transcriptionfactors • Helix-loop-helixeg. MyoD, c-Myc • Leucin zippers eg. AP-1, CREB • Zinc-coordinating DNA-binding domains eg. Zinc fingers: nuclear receptors for steroids, thyroid hormone; GATA factors • Helix-turn-helixeg. Homeobox; Forkhead / winged helix • Beta-scaffoldfactors with minorgroovecontactseg. NFkB, NFAT, STAT, p53 • Others

  8. Functionalgroups of TFs • General transcription factors: constitutively active, present in all cells at all times, bind TATA box, form preinitiation complex eg. TFIIA-H • Specific transcription factors /upstream transcription factors are conditionally active • Developmental (cell specific) eg. GATA, MyoD, Hox,Winged helix • Signal-dependent

  9. Signal-dependentTFs • Extracellularligand(eg. nuclear receptors) • Intracellularligand(eg. SREBP, p53) • Cell-membrane receptor dependent • Resident nuclear (eg. CREB, AP-1, Mef-2) • Latentcytoplasmic(eg. STAT, NFAT, NFkB, Notch)

  12. Regulation of transcription Post-transcriptionalcontrol MicroRNAs, alternativesplicing, alternativepolyadenylation, RNA-bindingproteins, etc. miRNAs TF TF mRNAs Transcriptionalcontrol Transcriptionfactors, chromatinstate, combinatorialcontrol, co-factors, alternativepromoters, etc.

  13. Mechanism of generegulation • General transcription factors and the RNA Polymerase interacts with numerous coregulators (specific transcription factors) • Activators bind to enhancer elements • Repressors bind to silencer elements of the DNA upstream from the TATA box
