Abstract
The DNA binding characteristics of the rat nuclear matrix were investigated. A saturable and temperature-dependent, salt-resistant DNA binding to the nuclear matrix was discovered, with 70-80% of total bound DNA resistant to extraction with high concentrations of salt at 37 degrees C, compared to less than 5% at 0 degrees C. The initial binding of DNA to nuclear matrix is sensitive to salt concentration, indicating a transition to a salt-resistant binding state. The nuclear matrix shows a preference for single-stranded DNA, both in saturation and competition assays, with little binding of RNA or double-stranded DNA. Further competition studies show a preference for matrix-attached DNA probably involving predominantly AT-rich sequences, while a specific sequence defined previously as a matrix-attached region (MAR; Cockerill, P. N., and Garrard, W. T. (1986) Cell 46, 273-282) only showed preference for a limited number of the total matrix binding sites. These results and estimates from saturation data of approximately 150,000 single-stranded DNA binding sites per matrix lead us to propose that the nuclear matrix contains different classes of DNA binding sites, each with a separate sequence specificity. Binding of DNA to individual matrix polypeptides separated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels and transferred to nitrocellulose blots was also temperature-dependent, salt-resistant, and showed a preference for binding DNA over RNA and nuclear matrix DNA over total genomic DNA. Subnuclear fractionation experiments further demonstrated that the nuclear matrix is enriched in the subset of higher molecular weight (greater than 50,000) DNA binding proteins of isolated nuclei and correspondingly depleted of the lower molecular weight ones. Of the approximately 12 major proteins separated on nonequilibrium two-dimensional gels, 7 were identified as specific DNA binding proteins including lamins A and C (but not B), and the internal nuclear matrix proteins, matrins D, E, F, G, and 4.
