Résumé

Members ofthe tripartitemotif(TRIM) protein family are found in all multicellular eukaryotes and function in a wide range of cellular processes such as cell cycle regulation, differentiation, development, oncogenesis and viral response. Overthe past few years, severalTRIM proteins have been reported to control gene expression through regulation of the transcriptional activity of numerous sequence-specific transcription factors. The se proteins include the transcriptional intermediary factor 1 (TIF1) regulators, the promyelocytic leukemia tumor suppressor PML and the RET finger protein (RFP). In this chapter, we will consider the molecular interactions made by the se TRIM proteins and will attempt to clarify some ofthe molecular mechanisms underlying their regulatory effect on transcription.
