| Abstract | The tumor suppressor p53 consists of four 393-residue chains, each of which has two natively unfolded (N- and C-terminal) and two folded (core and tetramerization) domains. Their structural organization is poorly characterized as the protein tends to aggregate, has defied crystallization, and is at the limits of NMR studies. We first stabilized the protein by mutation to make it more suitable for extended study and then acquired NMR spectra on full-length protein and various combinations of shorter domain constructs. The NMR spectrum (15N,1H transverse relaxation optimized spectroscopy) of full-length p53 was close to that expected from the sum of the spectra of isolated individual domains. However, patterns of changes in chemical shifts revealed unexpected interactions between the core domains. We used the NMR data as constraints in docking algorithms and found a previously uncharacterized self-complementary surface for the association of core domains into dimers within the tetrameric complex. Binding to DNA requires about a 70° rotation to break those subunit interactions and form the known protein:protein interface in the p53–DNA complex. We verified the interactions by the effects of mutation on DNA binding. Spectroscopic, biophysical, and mutational data conspired to give a picture of the p53 tetramer as a dimer of loosely tethered core dimers of appropriate symmetry to be poised to bind target DNA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
