摘要: PRDM家族蛋白是具有一个PR结构域和数量不等锌指结构(除了PRDM11),广泛存在于灵长类、啮齿动物、鸟类和两栖动物中能够调控表观遗传的蛋白。部分PRDM蛋白家族成员的PR结构域具有组蛋白赖氨酸转移酶活性(HMT),影响表观遗传,PRDM蛋白锌指结构具有DNA、RNA、蛋白识别结合能力;另一部分PRDM家族成员虽然具有PR结构域,但不具有HMT活性,在癌症发生、原始生殖细胞特化、神经系统发育、造血、血管发展、胚胎发育中发挥重要作用。PRDM家族蛋白通过甲基转移或募集染色体结构重塑复合物,调控基因表达和修改染色体结构,在细胞特化和疾病调控中起到重要作用。论文综述了PRDM家族蛋白结构与功能最新研究进展。

Abstract: PRDM protein family which has a PR domain and varying amounts of zinc finger domains (except PRDM11), widely present in primates, rodents, birds and amphibians, involve in regulation of epigenetic proteins.Some PR domains possess transferase activity of histone lysine (HMT), affect epigenetics features and the Zinc finger domains may recognize and bind DNA, RNA, protein;The other PR domains of PRDM without HMT activity, play a key role in carcinogenesis, specification of primordial germ cell, neurogenesis, hematopoiesis, vascular development, and embryonic development.PRDM protein family participate in cell specialization, and disease regulation, regulating gene expression and modifying chromatin structure by methyl transfer, or recruited chromosome structure reshape compounds.This review summarized the latest research progress on structure and function of PRDM protein family.

Key words: PRDM protein family; epigenetics; PR domain; zinc finger; histone lysine transferase activity
