Nuclear extracts from a nontransformed murine T lymphocyte clone contained two inducible factors that bound to a nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) site. One factor was NF-kappa B, and the other was differentiated from NF-kappa B by its mobility in the electrophoretic mobility shift assay and its lack of sensitivity to protein kinase C depletion. Competition and methylation interference assays showed that the binding site for the novel factor was limited to nucleotides in the 3' half of the kappa B site. This part of the kappa B site resembled sequences in the binding site for a second inducible nuclear factor of T cells, NF-AT, as well as a conserved sequence found in several lymphokine genes, termed "cytokine-1" (CK-1). Competition and methylation interference analysis showed that both NF-AT and CK-1 sequences bound a factor similar to the novel kappa B-binding factor and that binding involved a four-nucleotide sequence (TTCC) that the kappa B, CK-1, and NF-AT sites have in common. The complexes that form with each site have characteristics of NF-AT: they are induced upon T cell receptor stimulation, are sensitive to protein synthesis inhibitors and cyclosporin A, and are not sensitive to protein kinase C depletion. Thus, a factor or factors similar to NF-AT can bind to three distinct promoter sequences which occur commonly in several T cell activation genes. These results raise the possibility that related factors binding to kappa B, CK-1, and NF-AT sequences could play a role in the coordinate induction of T cell activation genes. In addition, our results suggest that kappa B and CK-1 sites represent potential cyclosporin-sensitive promoter elements by virtue of their ability to bind an NF-AT-like factor. 相似文献

实验采用低钾诱导大鼠小脑颗粒神经元凋亡模型,观察核因子kappaB(NF-kappaB)活性与热应激抑制神经元凋亡之间的关系,迁移率改变法(EMSA)检测结果显示:神经元经低钾处理16h可见NF-kappaB活性明显升高,热应激处理可减弱低钾诱发的NF-kappaB激活,并呈时间依赖性,Hoechst33258荧光素核染色,DNA琼脂糖凝胶电泳和流式细胞(FCM)检测均发现低钾16h可诱发神经元凋亡,预先用热处理60或90min可明显减弱低钾诱发的神经元凋亡,用佛波酯(PMA)激活NF-kappaB,可进一步增强60min热应激抑制精经元凋亡的作用,而用吡咯烷二硫代氨基甲酸盐(PDTC)选择性阻断NF-kappaB活性后,热应激抑制神经元凋亡的作用明显减弱。上述结果提示,热应激的神经保护作用与减弱NF-kappaB活性无关,而NF-ksppaB激活可能参与热应激抑制神经元凋亡的作用。 相似文献

Transformation of T cells by the intracellular parasite Theileria parva is accompanied by constitutive I-kappa B degradation and NF-kappa B activation, a process which is essential to prevent the spontaneous apoptosis of these parasite-transformed cells. NF-kappa B-mediated responses are regulated by selective combinations of NF-kappa B proteins as homo- or heterodimers and by distinct kappa B motifs. We characterised the NF-kappa B complexes induced by T. parva infection in TpM(803) T cells. By western blot, we demonstrated that all members of the NF-kappa B/Rel family of proteins translocate to the nucleus of infected cells. Using two different kappa B oligonucleotides (kappa B-1 and kappa B-2), both containing the decameric consensus kappa B motif (GGGACTTTCC), clearly distinct patterns of DNA binding activities could be demonstrated in electrophoretic mobility shift assays. Supershift analysis and UV cross-linking assays showed that complexes binding to kappa B-1 consisted of p50, p65 and RelB homo and/or heterodimers. We could also detect an association of ATF-2 and c-Fos with one of the complexes. The HIV-derived kappa B-2 oligo only bound p50 and p65. Additionally, several agents known to inhibit a wide range of NF-kappa B activation pathways had no inhibitory effect on the activation of NF-kappa B DNA binding in TpM(803) T cells. 相似文献

X-ray crystal structures of the NF-kappa B.I kappa B alpha complex revealed an extensive and complex protein-protein interface involving independent structural elements present in both I kappa B alpha and NF-kappa B. In this study, we employ a gel electrophoretic mobility shift assay to assess and quantitate the relative contributions of the observed interactions toward overall complex binding affinity. I kappa B alpha preferentially binds to the p50/p65 heterodimer and p65 homodimer, with binding to p50 homodimer being significantly weaker. Our results indicate that the nuclear localization sequence and the region C-terminal to it of the NF-kappa B p65 subunit is a major contributor to NF-kappa B. I kappa B alpha complex formation. Additionally, there are no contacts between the corresponding nuclear localization signal tetrapeptide of p50 and I kappa B alpha. A second set of interactions involving the acidic C-terminal/PEST-like region of I kappa B alpha and the NF-kappa B p65 subunit N-terminal domain also contributes binding energy toward formation of the complex. This interaction is highly dynamic and nonspecific in nature, as shown by oxidative cysteine cross-linking. Phosphorylation of the C-terminal/PEST-like region by casein kinase II further enhances binding. 相似文献

Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) modulates the expression of numerous genes via interaction with a specific DNA sequence termed the kappa B site. Its activity is modulated by a cytosolic inhibitor protein termed I kappa B, and its activation occurs in response to a variety of agents in a variety of cell types, most notably B and T lymphocytes. Data presented here show that an activity (designated complex I) that binds specifically to the kappa B site is induced in density-arrested Balb/c-3T3 mouse fibroblasts by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), a potent mitogen for these cells. Increased levels of complex I, as evaluated by electrophoretic mobility shift assays of nuclear extracts, were observed in cells treated for 1-4 h (but not 15 min) with the BB isoform of PDGF. 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) and the AA isoform of PDGF also stimulated this response and both isoforms, but not TPA, were effective in cells depleted of protein kinase C. Complex I most likely is authentic NF-kappa B, a p50-p65 heterodimer, or a closely related factor because it exhibited properties characteristic of those previously described for NF-kappa B including inducibility by deoxycholate and cycloheximide and sensitivity to I kappa B. A second kappa B binding activity (complex II), which apparently contained p50 homodimers, displayed limited induction by PDGF, whereas a third complex (complex III) migrated faster than but behaved similarly to complex I. These studies suggest that NF-kappa B or an NF-kappa B-like factor may participate in the expression of PDGF-inducible genes. 相似文献

Enhancer activity of the rabbit immunoglobulin kappa light chain gene intron conserved region (KICR) was examined in mouse myeloma cells using transient expression experiments. Compared to the homologous region of the mouse kappa light chain gene, the rabbit KICR shows nearly no stimulatory effect on expression of the indicator gene, cat. Experiments with mouse-rabbit chimeric KICRs indicated that differences in the region around the NF-kappa B binding site are responsible for the impaired activity of the rabbit KICR whereas mouse sequences covering the kappa E2 and kappa E3 motifs can be replaced by the equivalent rabbit fragment without affecting enhancer function. Creation of a perfect mouse NF-kappa B target sequence in the rabbit gene only partially restores enhancer activity. Furthermore, mouse and rabbit DNA fragments encompassing the NF-kappa B target sequence behave in an identical manner in an electrophoretic mobility shift assay. The results indicate species-related functional differences in the immunoglobulin kappa light chain gene enhancer and suggest that although the NF-kappa B binding site plays a crucial role in enhancer activity surrounding gene elements are also necessary for full enhancer effect. 相似文献

The activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) in intact cells is mechanistically not well understood. Therefore we investigated the modifications imposed on NF-kappa B/I kappa B components following stimulation and show that the final step of NF-kappa B induction in vivo involves phosphorylation of several members of the NF-kappa B/I kappa B protein families. In HeLa cells as well as in B cells, TNF-alpha rapidly induced nuclear translocation primarily of p50-p65, but not of c-rel. Both NF-kappa B precursors and I kappa B alpha became strongly phosphorylated with the same kinetics. In addition to the inducible phosphorylation after stimulation, B lymphocytes containing constitutive nuclear NF-kappa B revealed constitutively phosphorylated p65 and I kappa B alpha. Phosphorylation was accompanied by induced processing of the precursors p100 and p105 and by degradation of I kappa B alpha. As an in vitro model we show that phosphorylation of p105 impedes its ability to interact with NF-kappa B, as has been shown before for I kappa B alpha. Surprisingly, even p65, but not c-rel, was phosphorylated after induction in vivo, suggesting that TNF-alpha selectively activates only specific NF-kappa B heteromers and that modifications regulate not only I kappa B molecules but also NF-kappa B molecules. In fact, cellular NF-kappa B activity was phosphorylation-dependent and the DNA binding activity of p65-containing NF-kappa B was enhanced by phosphorylation in vitro. Furthermore, we found that the induction by hydrogen peroxide of NF-kappa B translocation to the nucleus, which is assumed to be triggered by reactive oxygen intermediates, also coincided with incorporation of phosphate into the same subunits that were modified after stimulation by TNF-alpha. Thus, phosphorylation appears to be a general mechanism for activation of NF-kappa B in vivo. 相似文献

We have characterized the complexes resulting from the specific binding in vitro of proteins present in nuclear extracts of several lymphoid and non-lymphoid cell lines to the TC-I and TC-II sequences of the simian virus 40 (SV40) enhancer. No proteins could be detected, binding selectively to the TC-I sequence, but two proteins TC-IIA and TC-IIB were identified interacting specifically with both the TC-II/kappa B enhanson, 5'-GGAAAGTCCCC-3' (important for the activity of the SV40 enhancer in vivo), and with the related H-2Kb enhanson, 5'-TGGGGATTCCCCA-3'. The binding of these two proteins to mutated TC-II enhansons correlates with the effect of these mutations in vivo, suggesting that both proteins may be important for SV40 enhancer activity. The TC-IIA binding activity was present in nuclear extracts of mature lymphoid B cells and was increased in pre-B cell nuclear extracts by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and cycloheximide treatment. Furthermore, complex formation between the TC-IIA protein and the TC-II enhanson was efficiently competed by the kappa B motif from the kappa chain enhancer, indicating that TC-IIA is the NF-kappa B factor or a closely related protein. However, in contrast to previous reports, a TC-IIA/NF-kappa B-like protein whose properties could not be distinguished from those of the TC-IIA protein present in lymphoid B cells, was found in nuclear extracts of several untreated non-lymphoid cell lines, notably of HeLa cells, but not of undifferentiated F9 embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells [F9(ND)]. The TC-IIA binding activity which was moderately increased in HeLa cell nuclear extracts by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and/or cycloheximide treatment could be induced in nuclear extracts of F9(ND) cells by cycloheximide, but not by TPA. Moreover, the TC-IIA binding activity could be induced in cytosolic fractions from F9(ND) cells by treatment with deoxycholate, indicating that these cells contain an inhibitor protein similar to the previously described NF-kappa B inhibitor, I kappa B. The second TC-II enhanson binding protein, TC-IIB, which could be clearly distinguished from the TC-IIA/NF-kappa B-like protein, by a number of differential properties, resembles the previously described KBF1/H2TF1 protein as it binds with a higher affinity to the H-2Kb enhanson than to the TC-II/kappa B enhanson, and its pattern of methylation interference on the H-2Kb and TC-II/kappa B enhansons is identical to that reported for the KBF1/H2TF1 protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献
