The human hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthase (H-PGDS) gene is highly expressed in human megakaryoblastic cells, in which phorbol ester induces its expression. We characterized the promoter activity of the 5'-flanking region and the untranslated exon 1 (-1044 to +290) of the human H-PGDS gene in human megakaryoblastic Dami cells. Transient expression analysis using the luciferase reporter gene revealed that the 5'-flanking region and the untranslated exon 1 were sufficient for efficient expression of the H-PGDS gene in Dami cells, but not in monocytic U937 cells. Deletion and site-directed mutagenesis of the Oct-1 element in the 5'-flanking region decreased the promoter activity by approximately 30% compared with that of the entire region from -1044 to +290. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay demonstrated that Oct-1 specifically bound to the promoter region. Interestingly, even only untranslated exon 1 (+1 to +290) showed approximately 60% of the promoter activity of the entire region from -1044 to +290. Site-directed mutagenesis of the AP-2 element within the untranslated exon 1 abolished the basal promoter activity as well as its phorbol ester-mediated up-regulation. In AP-2-deficient HepG2 cells, the H-PGDS promoter activity was enhanced by coexpression with AP-2alpha. These findings indicate that the Oct-1 element in the 5'-flanking region acts as a positive cis-acting element and that the AP-2 element in the untranslated exon 1 is crucial for both basal and phorbol ester-mediated up-regulation of human H-PGDS gene expression in megakaryoblastic Dami cells. 相似文献

The interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) beta chain (IL-2R beta) is an essential signaling component of high- and intermediate-affinity IL-2Rs. Our laboratory previously reported that a DNA fragment containing 857 bp of 5'-flanking sequence of the human IL-2R beta gene exhibited promoter activity. We have now further characterized the promoter and delineated cis-acting regulatory regions. The region downstream of -363 is critical for basal and phorbol myristate acetate-inducible IL-2R beta promoter activity and contains at least three enhancer-like regions. Among them, the -56 to -34 enhancer was the most potent and had high-level activity in two T-cell lines but not in nonlymphoid HeLaS3 and MG63 cells. This enhancer contains a GGAA Ets binding site which bound two Ets family proteins, Ets-1 and GA-binding protein in vitro. Mutation of the Ets motif strongly diminished both promoter and enhancer activities. We conclude that this Ets binding site plays a key role in regulating basal and phorbol myristate acetate-inducible IL-2R beta promoter activity and may also contribute to tissue-specific expression of the IL-2R beta gene. 相似文献
