Design of TALE-TF constructs. (A) Potential regulatory effect of transcription factor (TF) DNA residence time on gene transcription. Long DNA binding of a transcription repressor might lead to enhanced repression efficiency compared to short DNA binding due to more efficient competitive inhibition of an activator or recruitment of co-factors. (B) Domain structure of the TALE-based TFs. After a N-terminal HaloTag varying numbers of TALE DBD repeat domains recognizing the GR response element of SGK1 are inserted, followed by a C-terminal domain (AF-2 of GR or VP64) or no domain (⊘). (C) U2-OS cells expressing GRc16R labeled with TMR in the absence (left panel) and presence (right panel) of 1 μM Dex.
