{PDOC51053} {PS51053; SERTA} {BEGIN} ************************ * SERTA domain profile * ************************ The SERTA (for SEI-1, RBT-1, and TARA) domain is a motif of ~47 residues corresponding to the largest conserved region among TRIP-Br (transcriptional regulator interacting with the PHD-bromodomain) proteins, an evolutionarily conserved family restricted to higher eukaryotes. In proteins of the TRIP-Br family, the SERTA domain is found in association with a cyclin A-binding domain and a PHD-bromo binding domain. The SERTA domain is also found in some other proteins with no conservation with TRIP-Br proteins outside of the SERTA motif. The cyclin-dependent kinase CDK4-interacting segment of TRIP-Br1 includes most of the SERTA domain [1,2]. Some proteins known to contain a SERTA domain are listed below: - Mammalian cell division cycle associated protein 4 (CDCA4) or hematopoietic progenitor protein (HEPP), a protein expressed preferentially in hematopoietic progenitors and mature blood cells. - Human TRIP-Br1/p34SEI-1, a cyclin-dependent kinase regulator interacting with PHD (see ) and bromodomains (see ), two modules widely found in chromosomal proteins. - Mammalian RBT1, a potent transcriptional coactivator that interacts with the second subunit of replication protein A. - Human Y127, an hypothetical 34-kD protein. - Drosophila TARANIS, a trithorax group (trxG) protein that might participate in a cell memory process coupling chromatin structure to cell cycle progression. - Drosophila CG2865. The profile we developed covers the entire SERTA domain. -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the profile: ALL. -Other sequence(s) detected in Swiss-Prot: NONE. -Last update: January 2005 / First entry.
