High mobility group A proteins (HMGA1 and HMGA2) are architectural factors involved in chromatin remodelling and regulation of gene expression. HMGA are highly expressed during embryogenesis and in cancer cells and are involved in development and cell differentiation as well as cancer formation and progression. These factors, by binding to DNA and interacting with other nuclear proteins, can organize macromolecular complexes involved in transcription, chromatin dynamics, RNA processing, and DNA repair. The identification of protein partners for HMGA has greatly contributed to our understanding of their multiple functions. He we report the identification of HMGA molecular partners using a gene fragment library in a phage display screening. Using an ORF-enriched cDNA library, we have isolated several HMGA1 interacting clones and for two of them, TBP associated factor 3 (TAF3) and chromatin assembly factor 1 p150/CAF-1, have demonstrated an in vivo association with HMGA1. The identification of these new partners suggests that HMGA can also influence general aspects of transcription and once more underlines their involvement in chromatin remodelling and dynamics.
