Abstract

TGIF is a DNA-binding homeodomain protein that has been demonstrated to play a role in transforming growth factor beta-regulated transcription and implicated in the control of retinoid-responsive transcription. We investigated the intrinsic transcriptional activity of TGIF fused to a heterologous DNA-binding domain. Our results demonstrate that TGIF is a transcriptional repressor able to repress transcription from several different promoters. Repression by TGIF is insensitive to the distance at which it is bound from the promoter. Moreover, the wild type TGIF effectively represses transcription when bound to its cognate DNA-binding site via its homeodomain. Deletion analysis revealed the presence of at least two separable repression domains within TGIF. Repression by one of these is dependent on the activity of histone deacetylases (HDACs), whereas the other appears not to require HDAC activity. Finally, we demonstrate that TGIF interacts with HDACs via its carboxyl-terminal repression domain. Together, these results suggest that TGIF is a multifunctional transcriptional repressor, which acts in part by recruiting HDAC activity.
