Аннотация: Telomere-binding factor 2 (TRF2) is part of the shelterin protein complex found at chromosome ends. Lamin A/C interacts with TRF2 and influences telomere position. TRF2 has an intrinsically disordered region between the ordered dimerization and DNA-binding domains. This domain is referred to as the long linker region of TRF2, or udTRF2. We suggest that udTRF2 might be involved in the interaction between TRF2 and lamins. The recombinant protein corresponding to the udTRF2 region along with polyclonal antibodies against this region were used in co-immunoprecipitation with purified lamina and nuclear extracts. Co-immunoprecipitation followed by Western blots and mass spectrometry indicated that udTRF2 interacts with lamins, preferably lamins A/C. The interaction did not involve any lamin-associated proteins, was not dependent on the post-translation modification of lamins, nor did it require their higher-order assembly.Besides lamins, a number of other udTRF2-interacting proteins were identified by mass spectrometry, including several heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNP A2/B1, hnRNPA1, hnRNP A3, hnRNP K, hnRNP L, hnRNP M), splicing factors (SFPQ, NONO, SRSF1, and others), helicases(DDX5, DHX9, and Eif4a3l1), topoisomerase I, and heat shock protein 71, amongst others. Some ofthe identified interactors are known to be involved in telomere biology; the roles of the others remain to be investigated. Thus, the long linker region of TRF2 (udTRF2) is a regulatory domain responsible for the association between TRF2 and lamins and is involved in interactions with other proteins.
