Colier/Olf/Early B-cell factor (EBF) DNA Binding Domain COE_DBD is the amino-terminal DNA binding domain of the COE protein family. The COE transcription factor is a regulator of development in several organs and tissues that contain the DBD domain as well as IPT/TIG (immunoglobulin-like, Plexins, transcription factors/transcription factor immunoglobulin) and basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domains. COE has four members in mammals (COE1-4) with high sequence similarity at the amino-terminal region. COE_DBD requires a zinc ion to bind DNA and contains a zinc finger motif (H-X(3)-C-X(2)-C-X(5)-C) termed the zinc knuckle. COE is homo- or heterodimerized through the bHLH domain to bind DNA. COE1-4 each has a variant due to alternative splicing. However, this alternative splicing does not occur at the DBD domain. |
