Abstract

The in vitro DNA-binding properties and distribution of the Drosophila chorion factor 1/ultraspiracle transcription factor (CF1/USP) were investigated. The study protocol involved the use of monoclonal antibodies and bacterially produced full-length protein. The results showed that CF1/USP bindsmoderately strongly to a single hormone response element half-site. However, the factor also forms heteromers with mammalian retinoic acid and thyroid receptors via a second half-site. It was suggested that the factor functions asa heterodimer in vivo, although its partner or partners have not yet been identified.
