Histone-binding protein RBBP7 (RBBP7)

The protein contains 425 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 47820 Da.

 

Core histone-binding subunit that may target chromatin remodeling factors, histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases to their histone substrates in a manner that is regulated by nucleosomal DNA. Component of several complexes which regulate chromatin metabolism. These include the type B histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex, which is required for chromatin assembly following DNA replication; the core histone deacetylase (HDAC) complex, which promotes histone deacetylation and consequent transcriptional repression; the nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase complex (the NuRD complex), which promotes transcriptional repression by histone deacetylation and nucleosome remodeling; and the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex, which promotes repression of homeotic genes during development; and the NURF (nucleosome remodeling factor) complex.

Retinoblastoma-binding protein 7; rbbp7

CLONING

The RB1 protein (614041) interacts with multiple cellular proteins that mediate its functions. RBBP4 (602923) and RBBP7 were the 2 most abundant proteins from HeLa cell lysates that were specifically retained by an RB1 affinity column (Qian et al., 1993). By screening a HeLa cell cDNA expression library with monoclonal antibodies against RBBP7, Qian and Lee (1995) isolated cDNAs encoding RBBP7, which they called RbAp46. Southern blot analysis indicated that the human genome contains a single copy of the RBBP7 gene. The predicted 425-amino acid human RBBP7 protein is identical to mouse Rbbp7 except for 1 conserved amino acid substitution, and it is 89% identical to human RBBP4. RBBP7 contains internal trp-asp (WD) repeats that are conserved with those of RBBP4. By Western blot analysis, RBBP7 from HeLa cell lysates had a molecular mass of 46 kD. RNase protection analysis detected Rbbp7 mRNA in all mouse tissues examined, although the levels varied dramatically between different tissues. Yang et al. (2002) noted that RBBP7 is highly conserved between mammals, flies, and plants, with highest conservation in the WD repeat region. In developing mouse, Rbbp7 expression began at embryonic day 9.5, was dynamic, and persisted throughout embryogenesis. RBBP7 was expressed in all adult mouse tissues and mammalian cell lines examined, including HEK293 and HeLa cells.

GENE FUNCTION

Qian and Lee (1995) showed that RBBP7 formed a complex with RB1 in vitro and in vivo. In yeast, RBBP7 could mimic the function of S. cerevisiae Msi1, a presumed negative regulator of the Ras signal transduction pathway. Using reporter gene assays, Yang et al. (2002) demonstrated that mouse Rbbp7 functioned as a transcriptional repressor that inhibited mitogen-stimulated transactivation of FOS (164810) in transfected COS-1 cells.

MAPPING

By genomic sequence analysis, Yang et al. (2002) mapped the RBBP7 gene to chromosome Xp22.13. They mapped the mouse Rbbp7 gene to the X chromosome. ... More on the omim web site
