Transferrin hepato-specific gene enhancer, associated with the liver-enriched HNF-3α transcriptional factor and ubiquitous proteins, is a complex molecular edifice maintained through DNA-protein and protein-protein interactions. As a first step to understand the mechanisms responsible for its organization and activity, we have analyzed the interaction of the DNA binding domain of HNF-3α (HDBD) with a specific DNA segment present in the transferrin enhancer by different biophysical techniques. The kinetic constants of this interaction were measured using surface plasmon resonance. The HDBD-DNA interaction was also characterized by circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopy. HDBD binds to its specific DNA site with high affinity (Kd≊10−8M ). The affinity is reduced after sequence modification of the target DNA. Size exclusion chromatography and binding stoichiometry determined by fluorescence measurements indicate that the protein is present in a monomeric form before and after interaction with the DNA. The secondary structure of the protein was not significantly altered upon binding to specific DNA. By contrast, a structural change of DNA by interaction with HDBD seems to occur.
