| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
SHARP (SMRT/HDAC1-associated repressor protein), a transcriptional co-repressor, which possesses N-terminal RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) and the highly conserved C-terminal domain SPOC domain. The RRM domains of SHARP is known to bind a lnc (long nonconding) RNA, SRA. Meanwhile, SPOC domain binds to SMRT, a component of HDAC (histone deacetylase complex). Previously, we reported that the tertiary structure of the SPOC/phosphorylated SMRT complex and also found that the interaction is phosphorylation dependent. Recently, it has been reported that SHARP binds to the lncRNA XIST RNA which is an essential factor for dosage compensation. In this project, we determined the structure of the RRM1, and performed NMR analyses and RNA binding experiments for RRM2-3-4 and RRM2-3 of SHARP. We also investigated the consensus sequence of SHARP binding using CLIP. We are trying to determine the SHARP/Xist complex, and also started structural study of RBM15, a homolog of SHARP.
