Hairy/Enhancer of split 1 (Hes1) is a mammalian
transcriptional repressor that plays crucial roles in the regulation of
several developmental processes, including neuronal differentiation.
The aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanisms that regulate the transcription repression activity of Hes1. It is shown
here that Hes1 associates with the nuclear matrix, the
ribonucleoprotein network of the nucleus that plays important roles in
transcriptional regulation. Nuclear matrix binding is mediated by the
same Hes1 C-terminal domain that is also required for transcriptional
repression. This domain contains the WRPW motif that acts as a binding
site for the transcriptional corepressor Groucho, which also localizes to the nuclear matrix. Both the nuclear matrix association and transcription repression activity of Hes1 are inhibited by deletion of
the WRPW motif, indicating that Groucho acts as a transcriptional corepressor for Hes1. This corepressor role is not modulated by the
Groucho-related gene product Grg5. In contrast, the Runt-related protein RUNX2, which localizes to the nuclear matrix and interacts with
Groucho and Hes1, can inhibit both the Groucho·Hes1
interaction and the transcription repression ability of Hes1. Together,
these observations suggest that transcriptional repression by Hes1
requires interactions with Groucho at the nuclear matrix and that RUNX proteins act as negative regulators of the repressive activity of
Groucho·Hes1 complexes.
Association with the Nuclear Matrix and Interaction with Groucho
and RUNX Proteins Regulate the Transcription Repression Activity of the
Basic Helix Loop Helix Factor Hes1*
