Structural insights into FOXP2 multimerization and interactions from AlphaFold3 modeling
2025-04-27
Abstract excerpt
FOXP2 is a transcription factor critical for speech and language, yet its full-length structure remains unresolved experimentally. We used AlphaFold3 to model full-length human FOXP2 and its complexes. AlphaFold3 predicts that FOXP2 forms a symmetric homo-hexamer, in which oligomerization orders regions that are disordered in the monomer. This assembly may facilitate cooperative DNA binding via the forkhead DNA-bi...
