1. The archetypal TATA-box deficient G+C-rich promoter of the murine adenosine deaminase gene (Ada) requires a 48-bp minimal self-sufficient promoter element (MSPE) for function. This MSPE was used to isolate a novel full-length cDNA clone that encodes a 66-kDa murine G+C-rich promoter binding protein (mGPBP). The mGPBP mRNAs are ubiquitously expressed as either 3.0- or 3.5-kb forms differing in 3' polyadenylation site usage. Purified recombinant mGPBP, in the absence of any other mammalian cofactors, binds specifically to both the murine Ada gene promoter's MSPE and the nonhomologous human Topo IIalpha gene's G+C-rich promoter. In situ binding assays, immunoprecipitation, and Western blot analyses demonstrated that mGPBP is a nuclear factor that can form complexes with TATA-binding protein, TFIIB, TFIIF, RNA polymerase II, and P300/CBP both in vitro and in intact cells. In cotransfection assays, increased mGPBP expression transactivated the murine Ada gene's promoter. Sequestering of GPBP present in HeLa cell nuclear extract by immunoabsorption completely and reversibly suppressed extract-dependent in vitro transcription from the murine Ada gene's G+C-rich promoter. However, transcription from the human Topo IIalpha gene's TATA box-containing G+C-rich promoter was only partially suppressed and the adenovirus major late gene's classical TATA box-dependent promoter is totally unaffected under identical assay conditions. These results implicate GPBP as a requisite G+C-rich promoter-specific transcription factor and provide a mechanistic basis for distinguishing transcription initiated at a TATA box-deficient G+C-rich promoter from that initiated at a TATA box-dependent promoter.

2. This study describes comprehensive polling of transcription start and termination sites and analysis of previously unidentified full-length complementary DNAs derived from the mouse genome. We identify the 5' and 3' boundaries of 181,047 transcripts with extensive variation in transcripts arising from alternative promoter usage, splicing, and polyadenylation. There are 16,247 new mouse protein-coding transcripts, including 5154 encoding previously unidentified proteins. Genomic mapping of the transcriptome reveals transcriptional forests, with overlapping transcription on both strands, separated by deserts in which few transcripts are observed. The data provide a comprehensive platform for the comparative analysis of mammalian transcriptional regulation in differentiation and development. PMID: [16141072]
3. The National Institutes of Health's Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC) project was designed to generate and sequence a publicly accessible cDNA resource containing a complete open reading frame (ORF) for every human and mouse gene. The project initially used a random strategy to select clones from a large number of cDNA libraries from diverse tissues. Candidate clones were chosen based on 5'-EST sequences, and then fully sequenced to high accuracy and analyzed by algorithms developed for this project. Currently, more than 11,000 human and 10,000 mouse genes are represented in MGC by at least one clone with a full ORF. The random selection approach is now reaching a saturation point, and a transition to protocols targeted at the missing transcripts is now required to complete the mouse and human collections. Comparison of the sequence of the MGC clones to reference genome sequences reveals that most cDNA clones are of very high sequence quality, although it is likely that some cDNAs may carry missense variants as a consequence of experimental artifact, such as PCR, cloning, or reverse transcriptase errors. Recently, a rat cDNA component was added to the project, and ongoing frog (Xenopus) and zebrafish (Danio) cDNA projects were expanded to take advantage of the high-throughput MGC pipeline.
