Ets-2, like its closely related homologue Ets-1, is a member of the Ets family of
DNA binding transcription factors. Both proteins are subject to multiple levels
of regulation of their DNA binding and transactivation properties. One such
regulatory mechanism is the presence of an autoinhibitory module, which in Ets-1
allosterically inhibits the DNA binding activity. This inhibition can be relieved
by interaction with protein partners or cooperative binding to closely separated
Ets binding sites in a palindromic arrangement. In this study we describe the 2.5
Å resolution crystal structure of a DNA complex of the Ets-2 Ets domain. The Ets
domain crystallized with two distinct species in the asymmetric unit, which
closely resemble the autoinhibited and DNA bound forms of Ets-1. This discovery
prompted us to re-evaluate the current model for the autoinhibitory mechanism and
the structural basis for cooperative DNA binding. In contrast to Ets-1, in which
the autoinhibition is caused by a combination of allosteric and steric
mechanisms, we were unable to find clear evidence for the allosteric mechanism in
Ets-2. We also demonstrated two possibly distinct types of cooperative binding to
substrates with Ets binding motifs separated by four and six base pairs and
suggest possible molecular mechanisms for this behavior.
