The regulation of transcription level is an important step in gene expression process.  Beauveria bassiana  is a broad-spectrum insecticidal fungi widely used in the biologic control of arthropod. The regulation of its transcription level is a multilevel complex process. Multiprotein bridging factor 1(MBF1) is a transcriptional co-activator that bridges sequence-specific activators and the TATA-box binding protein(TBP), Little is known about the interaction between MBF1, TBP, and TBP binding to DNA(TATA-sequences)in filamentous fungi of  Beauveria bassiana , The binding of TBP to TATA-box and TBP to MBF1 was investigated via electrochemical biosensor. Graphene oxide has an electronic mobility that is unattainable for any metal, so it will be highly sensitive as a test electrode. Hence, we developed a simple, sensitive and specific sensor based on an TBP probe and graphene oxide that successfully detected the interaction of TBP and TATA-box or MBF1. From the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), we find that the radius will increase when adding TATA-box or MBF1 buffer to the modified TBP protein electrode. When adding no TATA-box or no MBF1, the radius is relatively unchanged. The interaction between TBP and TATA-box or MBF1 was proved based on the results. These data confirmed the specificity of the interactions, (1) our developed graphene-based electrochemical biosensor can be used for monitoring the interaction between TBP and TATA-box or MBF1, (2) TBP can bind to TATA-box, (3) TBP can bind to MBF1, and (4) TBP mediates the interactions of MBF1 to DNA. Therefore, this work provided a label-free, low-cost and simple detection method for the complex process of eukaryotic gene transcription regulation.
