Murine p202 is an interferon-inducible primarily nuclear phosphoprotein (52 kDa) whose expression in transfected cells inhibits colony formation. p202-binding proteins include the pocket proteins (pRb, p107 and p130), a p53-binding protein (sm53BP1), and transcription factors (e.g. NF-kappaB (p50 and p65), AP-1 (c-Fos and c-Jun), E2F-1, E2F-4, MyoD, and myogenin). p202 modulates the transcriptional activity of these factors in transfected cells. Here we demonstrate that p202 self-associates directly and a sequence in p202, which is conserved among the members of the 200-family proteins, was sufficient for self-association in vitro. Our observations reported herein raise the possibility that self-association of p202 may provide a mechanism for the regulation of its activity.

Polyadenylation of mRNA precursors is mediated by a large multisubunit protein complex. Here we show that RBBP6 (retinoblastoma-binding protein 6), identified initially as an Rb- and p53-binding protein, is a component of this complex and functions in 3' processing in vitro and in vivo. RBBP6 associates with other core factors, and this interaction is mediated by an unusual ubiquitin-like domain, DWNN ("domain with no name"), that is required for 3' processing activity. The DWNN is also expressed, via alternative RNA processing, as a small single-domain protein (isoform 3 [iso3]). Importantly, we show that iso3, known to be down-regulated in several cancers, competes with RBBP6 for binding to the core machinery, thereby inhibiting 3' processing. Genome-wide analyses following RBBP6 knockdown revealed decreased transcript levels, especially of mRNAs with AU-rich 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) such as c-Fos and c-Jun, and increased usage of distal poly(A) sites. Our results implicate RBBP6 and iso3 as novel regulators of 3' processing, especially of RNAs with AU-rich 3' UTRs.
