The human T-cell leukemia virus type I Tax protein forms a ternary complex on DNA in association with a host factor, the cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB). An understanding of the precise geometry of this complex has been elusive. We have used photocross-linking to investigate Tax-DNA contacts. Our data show that Tax contacts the DNA at two symmetric positions 14 nucleotides apart on either side of the Tax responsive element. The presence of symmetric, widely separated regions of contact suggests that at least two molecules of Tax are present in the complex. Mapping the contacts onto a three-dimensional model of the CREB-DNA binary complex shows that they lie on the same face of the DNA near the regions where the N termini of the CREB bZIP domains enter the major groove. This location correlates well with previous evidence that CREB amino acid residues immediately N-terminal to the bZIP domain are crucial for the formation of the ternary complex. The limited number of cross-links observed suggests that contacts are primarily with the phosphate backbone and does not support the idea that a major structural element of the Tax protein inserts into the major or minor grooves of the DNA.
