A 30-kDa host protein binds to two very-late baculovirus promoters.

A 30-kDa host factor (polyhedrin-promoter-binding protein; PPBP) specifically binds to sequences critical for transcription from the baculovirus polyhedrin (p29) gene initiator promoter [Burma, S., Mukherjee, B., Jain, A., Habib, S. & Hasnain, S. E. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 2750-2757; Mukherjee, B., Burma, S. & Hasnain, S. E. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 4405-4411]. A host factor also binds, in gel shift assays, to the very-late p10 gene promoter through DNA sequence motifs similar to the PPBP.p29 interaction. The p10 host factor complex was specifically competed out with oligonucleotides containing p29 cognate sequence motifs AATAAA and TAAGTATT, but this did not occur when these motifs were replaced with random sequences. From ultraviolet cross-linking analysis, the molecular mass of this host factor was estimated to be approximately 30 kDa. Experiments were performed to investigate if this host factor displayed any differences in affinity and turnover with respect to the p29 and p10 untranslated leader sequences known to be important for temporal fine tuning and the late burst of transcription. Half-life determination of the p10-binding protein revealed similar binding affinities for the initiator elements of both the promoters, but higher affinity for the p10 5'-untranslated region (approximately 30 min versus approximately 10 min). The involvement of a similar host factor binding to both the p10 and p29 promoters indicates the possibility of a similar mode of transcription initiation from these two very-late promoters.
