Structural Basis for p53 Binding-induced DNA Bending

Abstract: Specific p53 binding-induced DNA bending has important biological implications such as transcription activation. However, the detailed structures of the bent DNA and the p53-DNA complex are still unavailable, hampering our understanding of the mechanism for p53-induced DNA bending and its consequent biological significance. To gain insight into the p53 binding-induced DNA bending, we performed molecular dynamics simulations on DNA segments with the consensus sequence for p53-specific binding, half site DNA-p53… Show more

“…The most favorable interaction energy was from the 5 th position base pair, consistent with previous results 28 , while the interaction of the second most conserved base pair at the 2 nd position was much weaker. Therefore, 4 th and 5 th position base pairs dominate the DNA quarter site interactions with p53.…”

“…These data suggest that regardless of the DNA sequence differences, the p53 dimers tend to reach similar extent of favorable interactions. Such typical p53 dimer-dimer interface has been proposed previously 28 and the organizations of the complexes at the dimer-dimer interface were similar to each other as well (Figure 3). Comparison of the interfaces for the four complexes further shows that important interactions between the p53 monomers at the dimer-dimer interface and the residues involved were similar among the four complexes.…”
