Domain | Isoform(s) | Function | Reference(s) |
---|---|---|---|
HMG2 | Sp100B/C/HMG | DNA binding (see below). | (Lehming et al., 1998) |
SAND | Sp100B/C/HMG | DNA binding to unmethylated cytosines of CpGs dinucleotides. | (Guldner et al., 1999; Bottomley et al., 2001; Wilcox et al., 2005; Isaac et al., 2006) |
HMG1/2 | Sp100HMG | Shapes an L composed of three α-helices that bind and open the minor groove of DNA while narrowing the major one thus, bending the DNA and allowing the assembly of nucleosome and other proteins. | (Seeler et al., 1998; Guldner et al., 1999; Thomas, 2001; Malarkey and Churchill, 2012; Newhart et al., 2013; Lohani and Rajeswari, 2016) |
CC | Sp100HMG | Unknown. | ELM prediction (Kumar et al., 2020) |
PHD | Sp100C | Binds with most affinity to histone 3 unmethylated in Lys4 (H3K4me0) but tri-methylated in Lys9 (H3K9me3). | (Zhang et al., 2016) |
BRD | Sp100C | Unclear binding to acetylated Lys (KAc). | (Filippakopoulos and Knapp, 2012; Zhang et al., 2016) |
