The BS69 protein has been commonly described as a co-repressor associated with various transcription factors. However, this hypothesis relied predominantly on overexpression of tagged proteins due to the lack of a reliable BS69 antibody. We present for the first time a complete sequence of BS69 and valuable tools to characterize the endogenous protein. We show that the full-length BS69 protein, as well as minor alternatively spliced isoforms, is ubiquitously expressed, nuclear, and associates with chromatin and mitotic chromosomes. Accordingly, BS69 interacts with a set of chromatin remodeling factors, including ATP-dependent helicases, histone deacetylases, and histone methyltransferases, as well as the E2F6 transcription factor. These data strengthen a role for BS69 in gene repression and link BS69 to chromatin remodeling.

Morphogenesis and organogenesis in the low organisms have been found to be modulated by a number of proteins, and one of such factor, deformed epidermal auto-regulatory factor-1 (DEAF-1) has been initially identified in Drosophila. The mammalian homologue of DEAF-1 and structurally related proteins have been identified, and they formed a family with over 20 members. The factors regulate gene expression through association with co-repressors, recognition of genomic marker, to exert histone modification by catalyze addition of some chemical groups to certain amino acid residues on histone and non-histone proteins, and degradation host proteins, so as to regulate cell cycle progression and execution of cell death.

Natural variation separates Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) into type 1 and type 2 strains. Type 2 EBV is less transforming in vitro due to sequence differences in the EBV transcription factor EBNA2. This correlates with reduced activation of the EBV oncogene LMP1 and some cell genes.

BS69 is encoded by a gene located on chromosome 10, in a region frequently deleted in human cancers and BS69 expression is often down-regulated in human cancers. In addition, BS69 acts as a transcriptional repressor via interaction with transcriptional factors associated with tumorigenesis, such as cellular homolog of the avian myeloblastosis viral oncoprotein, v-ets erythroblastosis virus E26 oncogene homolog 2 oncoprotein, MYC-associated protein X gene-associated protein. Overexpression of BS69 can suppress proliferation of osteosarcoma, breast cancer and glioma cells in vitro; and inhibits tumor growth in xenograft models.

Early region 1A (E1A) is the first viral protein produced upon human adenovirus (HAdV) infection. This multifunctional protein transcriptionally activates other HAdV early genes and reprograms gene expression in host cells to support productive infection. E1A functions by interacting with key cellular regulatory proteins through short linear motifs (SLiMs).
