?cl23759: GT1 Superfamily (this model, PSSM-Id:419993 is obsolete and has been replaced by 474047)
GT1, myb-like, SANT family GT-1, a myb-like protein, is one of the GT trihelix transcription factors. GT-1 binds the GT cis-element of rbcS-3A, a light-induced gene, as a dimer. Arabidopsis GT-1 is a trans-activator and acts in the stabilization of components of the transcrtiption pre-initiation complex comprised of TFIIA-TBP-TATA. The isolated GT-1 DNA-binding domain is sufficient to bind DNA. This region closely resemble the myb domain, but with longer helices. It has been proposed that GT-1 may respond to light signals via calcium-dependent phosphorylation to create a light-modulated molecular switch. These proteins are members of the SANT/myb group. SANT is named after 'SWI3, ADA2, N-CoR and TFIIIB', several factors that share this domain. The SANT domain resembles the 3 alpha-helix bundle of the DNA-binding Myb domains and is found in a diverse set of proteins. |
