pubmed:abstractText |
The Bmi1 gene has been identified as a mouse Polycomb group (Pc-G) gene implicated in the regulation of Hox gene expression. Here we describe the characterization of a Bmi binding protein Mph1, which shares similarity to Drosophila polyhomeotic. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments indicate that Bmi1 and Mph1, as well as the Mel18 and M33 proteins described previously, are constituents of a multimeric protein complex in mouse embryos and human cells. A central domain of Bmi1 interacts with the carboxyl terminus of Mph1, whereas a conserved alpha-helical domain in the Mph1 protein is required for its homodimerization. Transgenic mice overexpressing various mutant Bmi1 proteins demonstrate that the central domain of Bmil is required for the induction of anterior transformations of the axial skeleton. Bmi1, M33, and Mph1 show an overlapping speckled distribution in interphase nuclei. These data provide molecular evidence for the existence of a mammalian Polycomb complex.
