Previous studies from our laboratory demonstrated that AP-2alpha induces the expression of the hPL and hCG genes in cultured trophoblast cells. In the current study, we have shown by transient transfection studies that AP-2gamma, which is the product of a separate gene from AP-2alpha, also stimulates hPL and hCGbeta promoter activities. However, AP-2gamma mRNA levels during in vitro differentiation of human cytotrophoblast cells were strikingly different than those of AP-2alpha mRNA levels, with AP-2alpha increasing and AP-2gamma markedly decreasing during the differentiation process. The amount of AP-2gamma protein binding to AP-2 elements on the hPL promoter, as determined by supershift assays, also markedly decreased during the differentiation process. These findings strongly suggest that AP-2gamma action in cytotrophoblast cells is repressed by a co-factor(s) that inhibits AP-2gamma action or is prevented by the absence of a co-factor(s) that is essential for AP-2gamma action. 相似文献

The NR1 gene undergoes induction in neurogenesis mainly via promoter de-repression, and up-regulation during neuronal differentiation by undefined mechanism(s). Here, we show that in the distal region the NR1 promoter has an active NF-kappaB site sharing the consensus with the immunoglobulin (Ig)/human immunodeficiency virus NF-kappaB site. Mutation of this site significantly reduced NR1 promoter up-regulation during neuronal differentiation of P19 cells. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays revealed that P19 nuclei constitutively contained p50 and that neuronal differentiation not only increased nuclear p50 but also induced p65 nuclear translocation. Responding to this change was an up-regulation of NF-kappaB-dependent promoter activity. However, inhibition of NF-kappaB nuclear translocation by an IkappaBalpha super-repressor or decoy DNA only moderately inhibited NR1 promoter up-regulation. Interestingly, the NR1 NF-kappaB site strongly interacted with Sp3/Sp1, instead of NF-kappaB factors, in P19 nuclear extracts. This interaction was reduced for Sp3 following neuronal differentiation, accompanied by dynamic expression of Sp factors. Cotransfection of Sp factors (Sp1, 3, or 4) upregulated the NR1 NF-kappaB site dramatically in differentiated neurons, but only moderately in undifferentiated P19 cells. This up-regulation was strong for Sp1 in differentiated cells and for Sp3 in undifferentiated cells. Chromatin-immunoprecipitation assays further demonstrated that Sp1 and Sp3 interacted with the NR1 NF-kappaB site in situ, and Sp3 lost its interaction after neuronal differentiation. We conclude that the NF-kappaB site positively regulates the NR1 promoter during neuronal differentiation via interacting mainly with Sp factors and neuronal differentiation reduces the effect of Sp3 factor on this site. 相似文献

Sp1和Sp3介导的转录调控 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
基本转录因子Sp1和Sp3对转录调控区GC盒有很强的亲和力,参与几乎所有细胞功能,包括细胞增殖、凋亡、分化和新生物的转化.但在同一细胞中Sp1和Sp3对不同基因的作用并不相同,二者对基因特异性的转录调控是Sp1和Sp3研究领域的重要问题.近年来发现,Sp1和Sp3自身表达水平、结合的靶序列、磷酸化、糖基化等翻译后修饰,其他蛋白质的结合以及染色质结构与修饰等方面均可影响Sp1和Sp3的转录活性.本文从Sp1和Sp3蛋白参与转录调节的机制以及影响其基因特异性转录活性的诸方面因素这两大侧面,介绍了近年来的最新进展. 相似文献
