Abstract
The core binding factor (CBF) heterodimeric transcription factors comprised of AML/CBFA/PEBP2alpha/Runx and CBFbeta/PEBP2beta subunits are essential for differentiation of hematopoietic and bone cells, and their mutation is intimately related to the development of acute leukemias and cleidocranial dysplasia. Here, we present the crystal structures of the AML1/Runx-1/CBFalpha(Runt domain)-CBFbeta(core domain)-C/EBPbeta(bZip)-DNA, AML1/Runx-1/CBFalpha(Runt domain)-C/EBPbeta(bZip)-DNA, and AML1/Runx-1/CBFalpha(Runt domain)-DNA complexes. The hydrogen bonding network formed among CBFalpha(Runt domain) and CBFbeta, and CBFalpha(Runt domain) and DNA revealed the allosteric regulation mechanism of CBFalpha(Runt domain)-DNA binding by CBFbeta. The point mutations of CBFalpha related to the aforementioned diseases were also mapped and their effect on DNA binding is discussed.

Within CBFα, β strands, and loops are depicted as red arrows and pink tubes, respectively; within CBFβ, α helices, β strands, and loops are depicted as green ribbons, blue arrows, and cyan tubes, respectively. The C-terminal region of the C/EBPβ homodimer containing the bZip domain is shown as yellow ribbons

Sequences, Foldings, and DNA Recognition(A) Amino acid sequences of CBFα and CBFβ with indications of their secondary structures; the nucleotide sequence of the 26 bp double-stranded DNA fragment used for determining the structures of the CBFα-β-C/EBPβ-DNA and CBFα-C/EBPβ-DNA complexes; and the sequence of the 16 bp DNA fragment used for determining the structure of the CBFα-DNA complex.(B and C) Topology diagrams of the structures of CBFα (B) and CBFβ (C). The first and last residue numbers of each secondary structure are indicated. The notations A, B, C, C′, E, F, and G correspond to the β strands classified as being within the immunoglobulin fold. In (B), cyan, green, and yellow circles depict the residues involved in specific DNA base recognition, nonspecific DNA backbone interactions, and water-mediated interactions, respectively. In (C), the electron density of a section of L3 (residues 71 to 81) was not observed (dotted line).(D) Schematic representation of DNA recognition by CBFα. Dashed and solid lines depict intermolecular hydrogen bonds and van der Waals contacts, respectively. DNA base labels involved in direct interactions with amino acids are colored red. A DNA base label involved in water-mediated base recognitions is colored green. DNA recognitions by the peptide backbone amide are noted as NH. Minor groove recognitions are circled with magenta.(E) A stereo view of the specific interactions between CBFα and DNA. Pink tubes show the CBFα peptide backbone. Dotted lines depict intermolecular hydrogen bonds and water molecules are shown as red balls
