The multiple isoforms of PDGF induce fibroblastic mitogenesis through two distinct PDGF receptors, alpha and beta. The molecular mechanisms by which these alpha and beta PDGF receptors regulate gene expression are poorly understood. We present data which indicates that differential induction of c-fos gene expression by PDGF isoforms occurs through distinct PDGF alpha and beta receptor-mediated signaling pathways. Comparison of PDGF-AA with PDGF-BB stimulation showed that PDGF-BB induced prolonged expression of the c-fos gene in BALB/c-3T3 cells, but that PDGF-AA induced more potent activation of the serum response element (SRE) in transient transfection assays. PDGF-AA, which binds alpha but not beta PDGF receptors, could only induce the SRE through a protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent pathway, whereas PDGF-BB, which binds both alpha and beta PDGF receptors, could also induce the SRE through a PKC-independent pathway. These results suggest that PDGF alpha receptors activate the PKC-dependent signaling pathway while PDGF beta receptors also activate a PKC-independent pathway. In addition, we found that PDGF-BB could induce another c-fos promoter element within the -90 to +10 region, suggesting that the more potent mitogenic effect and prolonged c-fos gene expression induced by PDGF-BB may result from cooperativity between more than one c-fos promoter elements. 相似文献

We have previously reported on the presence of a CArG motif at -100 in the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat which binds an avian nuclear protein termed enhancer factor III (EFIII) (A. Boulden and L. Sealy, Virology 174:204-216, 1990). By all analyses, EFIII protein appears to be the avian homolog of the serum response factor (SRF). In this study, we identify a second CArG motif (EFIIIB) in the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat enhancer at -162 and show only slightly lower binding affinity of the EFIII/SRF protein for this element in comparison with c-fos serum response element (SRE) and EFIII DNAs. Although all three elements bind the SRF with similar affinities, serum induction mediated by the c-fos SRE greatly exceeds that effected by the EFIII or EFIIIB sequence. We postulated that this difference in serum inducibility might result from binding of factors other than the SRF which occurs on the c-fos SRE but not on EFIII and EFIIIB sequences. Upon closer inspection of nuclear proteins which bind the c-fos SRE in chicken embryo fibroblast and NIH 3T3 nuclear extracts, we discovered another binding factor, SRE-binding protein (SRE BP), which fails to recognize EFIII DNA with high affinity. Competition analyses, methylation interference, and site-directed mutagenesis have determined that the SRE BP binding element overlaps and lies immediately 3' to the CArG box of the c-fos SRE. Mutation of the c-fos SRE so that it no longer binds SRE BP reduces serum inducibility to 33% of the wild-type level. Conversely, mutation of the EFIII sequence so that it binds SRE BP with high affinity results in a 400% increase in serum induction, with maximal stimulation equaling that of the c-fos SRE. We conclude that binding of both SRE BP and SRF is required for maximal serum induction. The SRE BP binding site coincides with the recently reported binding site for rNF-IL6 on the c-fos SRE. Nonetheless, we show that SRE BP is distinct from rNF-IL6, and identification of this novel factor is being pursued. 相似文献

We previously described a 110-kDa tyrosine phosphoprotein, Sob 1, that regulates formation of the DNA binding complex Band A at the c-fos serum response element (SRE) during T cell activation. Using competition and mutant oligonucleotide analysis, we have determined that both the core CArG box of the c-fos SRE and the 3' sequences flanking the CArG box are necessary for stable Band A complex formation. Moreover, using transient transfection and reporter assays, we show that mutations affecting Band A complex formation in vitro also impaired serum induction of c-fos gene expression in vivo. Since mutation at this site has no effect on SRF binding, our results suggest that in combination with SRE/SRF, Sob 1-regulated factor(s) bind at the 3' side of SRE to form Band A, and this confers maximal serum induction of c-fos gene expression via the SRE. 相似文献

We have analyzed the structure and the regulation of Krox-20, a mouse zinc finger-encoding gene which is transiently activated following serum stimulation of quiescent fibroblast cells in culture. The gene is localized on chromosome 10, band B5, in the mouse, and the homologous human gene also maps to chromosome 10 (region q21.1 to q22.1). Alternative splicing of the 5'-most intron of the Krox-20 gene gives rise to mRNAs encoding putative zinc finger proteins with different N termini. The first exon contains a sequence element with strong similarity to the c-fos proto-oncogene serum response element (SRE). This element can functionally substitute for the c-fos SRE, and it binds the same nuclear protein. It is probably responsible for the serum induction of Krox-20, possibly in combination with a weaker SRE located in the 5'-flanking region of the gene. Our findings suggest that c-fos, Krox-20, and a number of immediate-early serum response genes are coregulated and that the SRE and its cognate protein are essential components of this regulatory pathway. 相似文献

Elevation of intracellular casein kinase II (CKII) levels through microinjection of purified CKII results in the rapid and transient induction of c-fos in quiescent rat embryo fibroblasts, and activation of quiescent cells by serum is accompanied by the nuclear relocation of endogenous CKII. The induction of c-fos by CKII is inhibited by coinjection of oligonucleotides corresponding to the sequence of the serum response element (SRE) present in the c-fos promoter, indicating that competitive displacement of positive factors from the endogenous c-fos SRE prevents c-fos induction by CKII. Furthermore, the expression of c-fos induced by either CKII injection or serum activation is also inhibited by microinjection of antibodies against the 67 kDa serum response factor (p67SRF) indicating the absolute requirement of p67SRF in this process. Finally, we show the specific phosphorylation of p67SRF in vivo following microinjection of CKII into quiescent cells. Together, these data strongly support that CKII induces c-fos expression through binding/activation of the phosphorylated p67SRF at the SRE sequence. 相似文献
