Transactivation and dimerization properties of homeobox proteins. (A) Schematic representation of full-length homeobox proteins (BD::OsHOX24 and BD::OsHOX22) and truncated (C-terminal acidic region removed) fusion constructs (BD::OsHOX24ΔC and BD::OsHOX22ΔC) used. (B) Transactivation assay of full-length and truncated (ΔC) homeobox proteins in yeast. The transformants grown on SD-Trp (SD-T, left) medium; SD-Trp-His medium (SD-T-H, middle) and SD-Trp-His-Ade (SD-T-H-A, right) medium are shown. (C) Dimerization assay of full-length (fl) and truncated (ΔC) homeobox proteins. The deletion constructs, BD::OsHOX24ΔC and BD::OsHOX22ΔC, were co-transformed with different combinations of full-length (AD::OsHOX24fl, AD::OsHOX22fl) and deletion constructs (AD::OsHOX24ΔC, AD::OsHOX22ΔC) of homeobox proteins in yeast, as indicated on left side panel. The transformants were grown on SD-Trp-Leu (DDO medium) and SD-Trp-Leu-His-Ade medium (QDO medium) for confirmation of interaction. pGBKT7-p53 + pGADT7-T antigen represents positive control. Empty pGBKT7 vector (BD) represents negative control for transactivation assay and pGBKT7 + pGADT7 represents negative control for dimerization assay.
