[PMID: 37642733 PMCID: PMC11072126 DOI: 10.1007/s00018-023-04908-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023]
Abstract
Chromogranin A (CHGA), a member of the granin family of proteins, has been an attractive therapeutic target and candidate biomarker for several cardiovascular, neurological, and inflammatory disorders. The prominence of CHGA stems from the pleiotropic roles of several bioactive peptides (e.g., catestatin, pancreastatin, vasostatins) generated by its proteolytic cleavage and by their wide anatomical distribution. These peptides are emerging as novel modulators of cardiometabolic diseases that are often linked to high blood cholesterol levels. However, their impact on cholesterol homeostasis is poorly understood. The dynamic nature of cholesterol and its multitudinous roles in almost every aspect of normal body function makes it an integral component of metabolic physiology. A tightly regulated coordination of cholesterol homeostasis is imperative for proper functioning of cellular and metabolic processes. The deregulation of cholesterol levels can result in several pathophysiological states. Although studies till date suggest regulatory roles for CHGA and its derived peptides on cholesterol levels, the mechanisms by which this is achieved still remain unclear. This review aims to aggregate and consolidate the available evidence linking CHGA with cholesterol homeostasis in health and disease. In addition, we also look at common molecular regulatory factors (viz., transcription factors and microRNAs) which could govern the expression of CHGA and genes involved in cholesterol homeostasis under basal and pathological conditions. In order to gain further insights into the pathways mediating cholesterol regulation by CHGA/its derived peptides, a few prospective signaling pathways are explored, which could act as primers for future studies.

Association of Plasma Vitamins and Carotenoids, DNA Methylation of LCAT, and Risk of Age-Related Macular Degeneration. Nutrients 2023; 15:2985. [PMID: 37447314 DOI: 10.3390/nu15132985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Dysregulation of lipid metabolism has been implicated in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness among the elderly. Lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is an important enzyme responsible for lipid metabolism, which could be regulated by DNA methylation during the development of various age-related diseases. This study aimed to assess the association between LCAT DNA methylation and the risk of AMD, and to examine whether plasma vitamin and carotenoid concentrations modified this association. A total of 126 cases of AMD and 174 controls were included in the present analysis. LCAT DNA methylation was detected by quantitative real-time methylation-1specific PCR (qMSP). Circulating vitamins and carotenoids were measured using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). DNA methylation of LCAT was significantly higher in patients with AMD than those in the control subjects. After multivariable adjustment, participants in the highest tertile of LCAT DNA methylation had a 5.37-fold higher risk (95% CI: 2.56, 11.28) of AMD compared with those in the lowest tertile. Each standard deviation (SD) increment of LCAT DNA methylation was associated with a 2.23-fold (95% CI: 1.58, 3.13) increased risk of AMD. There was a J-shaped association between LCAT DNA methylation and AMD risk (Pnon-linearity = 0.03). Higher concentrations of plasma retinol and β-cryptoxanthin were significantly associated with decreased levels of LCAT DNA methylation, with the multivariate-adjusted β coefficient being -0.05 (95% CI: -0.08, -0.01) and -0.25 (95% CI: -0.42, -0.08), respectively. In joint analyses of LCAT DNA methylation and plasma vitamin and carotenoid concentrations, the inverse association between increased LCAT DNA methylation and AMD risk was more pronounced among participants who had a lower concentration of plasma retinol and β-cryptoxanthin. These findings highlight the importance of comprehensively assessing LCAT DNA methylation and increasing vitamin and carotenoid status for the prevention of AMD.

Abstract
The liver acts as a central hub that controls several essential physiological processes ranging from metabolism to detoxification of xenobiotics. At the cellular level, these pleiotropic functions are facilitated through transcriptional regulation in hepatocytes. Defects in hepatocyte function and its transcriptional regulatory mechanisms have a detrimental influence on liver function leading to the development of hepatic diseases. In recent years, increased intake of alcohol and western diet also resulted in a significantly increasing number of people predisposed to the incidence of hepatic diseases. Liver diseases constitute one of the serious contributors to global deaths, constituting the cause of approximately two million deaths worldwide. Understanding hepatocyte transcriptional mechanisms and gene regulation is essential to delineate pathophysiology during disease progression. The current review summarizes the contribution of a family of zinc finger family transcription factors, named specificity protein (SP) and Krüppel-like factors (KLF), in physiological hepatocyte functions, as well as how they are involved in the onset and development of hepatic diseases.

Abstract
The type 2 deiodinase (D2) in the neonatal liver accelerates local thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3) production and expression of T3-responsive genes. Here we show that this surge in T3 permanently modifies hepatic gene expression. Liver-specific Dio2 inactivation (Alb-D2KO) transiently increases H3K9me3 levels during post-natal days 1-5 (P1-P5), and results in methylation of 1,508 DNA sites (H-sites) in the adult mouse liver. These sites are associated with 1,551 areas of reduced chromatin accessibility (RCA) within core promoters and 2,426 within intergenic regions, with reduction in the expression of 1,363 genes. There is strong spatial correlation between density of H-sites and RCA sites. Chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data reveals a set of 81 repressed genes with a promoter RCA in contact with an intergenic RCA ~300 Kbp apart, within the same topologically associating domain (χ2 = 777; p < 0.00001). These data explain how the systemic hormone T3 acts locally during development to define future expression of hepatic genes.

Abstract
A promoter can be regulated by various cis-acting elements so that delineation of the regulatory modes among them may help understand developmental, environmental and genetic mechanisms in gene activity. Here we report that the human dopamine transporter gene SLC6A3 carries a 5' distal 5-kb super enhancer (5KSE) which upregulated the promoter by 5-fold. Interestingly, 5KSE is able to prevent 3' downstream variable number tandem repeats (3'VNTRs) from silencing the promoter. This new enhancer consists of a 5'VNTR and three repetitive sub-elements that are conserved in primates. Two of 5KSE's sub-elements, E-9.7 and E-8.7, upregulate the promoter, but only the later could continue doing so in the presence of 3'VNTRs. Finally, E-8.7 is activated by novel dopaminergic transcription factors including SRP54 and Nfe2l1. Together, these results reveal a multimodal regulatory mechanism in SLC6A3.

Abstract
RAR-related orphan receptor gamma RORγT, a tissue-specific isoform of the RORC gene, plays a critical role in the development of naive CD4+ cells into fully differentiated Th17 lymphocytes. Th17 lymphocytes are part of the host defense against numerous pathogens and are also involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, including autoimmune disorders. In this study, we functionally examined four naturally occurring polymorphisms located within one of the previously identified GC-boxes in the promoter region of the gene. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs774872314, rs116171003 and rs201107751 negatively influenced the activity of the RORγT promoter in a gene reporter system and eliminated or reduced Sp1 and Sp2 transcription factor binding, as evidenced by the electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) technique. Furthermore, we investigated the frequency of these SNPs in the Polish population and observed the presence of rs116171003 at a frequency of 3.42%. Thus, our results suggest that polymorphisms within the RORγT promoter occurring at significant rates in populations affect promoter activity. This might have phenotypic effects in immune systems, which is potentially significant for implicating pathogenetic mechanisms under certain pathological conditions, such as autoimmune diseases and/or primary immunodeficiencies (e.g., immunoglobulin E (IgE) syndrome).

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats. First, the differentially expressed genes (DGEs) were screened based on GSE45006 microarray data downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus using the significant analysis of microarray (SAM) method. Screening was performed for DEGs which were negatively or possibly correlated with time and subsequently subjected to gene ontology (GO) functional annotation. Furthermore, pathway enrichment analysis using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes was also performed. In addition, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins database. Finally, GeneCodis was used to seek transcription factors and microRNAs that are involved in the regulation of DEGs. A total of 806 DEGs were upregulated and 549 DEGs were downregulated in the rats with SCI. Cholesterol metabolism-associated genes (e.g. HMGCS1, FDFT1 and IDI1) were negatively correlated with time, while injury genes (e.g. SERPING1, C1S and RAB27A) were positively correlated with time after SCI. PCNA, MCM2, JUN and SNAP25 were the hub proteins of the PPI network. The transcription factors LEF1 and SP1 were observed to be associated with the regulation of two DEGs that were involved in the cholesterol-associated metabolism as well as injury responses. A number of microRNAs (e.g. miR210, miR-487b and miR-16) were observed to target cholesterol metabolism-associated DGEs. The hub genes PCNA, MCM2, JUN and SNAP25 presumably have critical roles in rats with SCI, and the transcription factors LEF1 and SP1 may be important for the regulation of cholesterol metabolism and injury responses following SCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiologically, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels associate inversely with risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease. Whether this is a causal relation is unclear. METHODS We studied 10,281 participants in the Copenhagen City Heart Study (CCHS) and 50,523 participants in the Copenhagen General Population Study (CGPS), of which 991 and 1,693 participants, respectively, had developed myocardial infarction (MI) by August 2010. Participants in the CCHS were genotyped for all six variants identified by resequencing lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase in 380 individuals. One variant, S208T (rs4986970, allele frequency 4%), associated with HDL cholesterol levels in both the CCHS and the CGPS was used to study causality of HDL cholesterol using instrumental variable analysis. RESULTS Epidemiologically, in the CCHS, a 13% (0.21 mmol/liter) decrease in plasma HDL cholesterol levels was associated with an 18% increase in risk of MI. S208T associated with a 13% (0.21 mmol/liter) decrease in HDL cholesterol levels but not with increased risk of MI or other ischemic end points. The causal odds ratio for MI for a 50% reduction in plasma HDL cholesterol due to S208T genotype in both studies combined was 0.49 (0.11-2.16), whereas the hazard ratio for MI for a 50% reduction in plasma HDL cholesterol in the CCHS was 2.11 (1.70-2.62) (P(comparison) = 0.03). CONCLUSION Low plasma HDL cholesterol levels robustly associated with increased risk of MI but genetically decreased HDL cholesterol did not. This may suggest that low HDL cholesterol levels per se do not cause MI.

Abstract
The lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase gene (LCAT) plays an important role in lipoprotein metabolism, especially in the process termed 'reverse cholesterol transport'. In this study, we obtained the 1,434 bp mRNA sequence of porcine LCAT including the full coding region and encoding a protein of 472 amino acids. The sequence was deposited into the GenBank under the accession no. EU717835. The genomic sequence of this gene which contains six exons and five introns, is 3,712 bp in length (GQ379050). Bioinformatic analysis of the 5' regulatory region has revealed that some transcription factor Sp1, AP-1, AP-2 and NF-kappaB were represented in this region. Tissue expression analysis showed that the porcine LCAT gene is ubiquitously expressed in all examined tissues. Phylogenetic tree was constructed by aligning the amino acid sequences of different species. Moreover, we found a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, C/G266) in intron 1 of the LCAT gene and association analysis showed that it was significantly associated with ratio of lean to fat (P < 0.05), caul fat weight (P < 0.01), leaf fat weight (P < 0.05), carcass length (P < 0.05) and bone percentage (P < 0.05). Our study will lay the groundwork for the further investigations on the detailed physiological function of LCAT in pig models.

Abstract
Vascular injury initiates a cascade of phenotype-altering molecular events. Transcription factor function in this process, particularly that of negative regulators, is poorly understood. We demonstrate here that the forced expression of the injury-inducible GLI-Krüppel zinc finger protein Yin Yang-1 (YY1) inhibits neointima formation in human, rabbit and rat blood vessels. YY1 inhibits p21(WAF1/Cip1) transcription, prevents assembly of a p21(WAF1/Cip1)-cdk4-cyclin D1 complex, and blocks downstream pRb(Ser249/Thr252) phosphorylation and expression of PCNA and TK-1. Conversely, suppression of endogenous YY1 elevates levels of p21(WAF1/Cip1), PCNA, pRb(Ser249/Thr252) and TK-1, and increases intimal thickening. YY1 binds Sp1 and prevents its occupancy of a distinct element in the p21(WAF1/Cip1) promoter without YY1 itself binding the promoter. Additionally, YY1 induces ubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation of p53, decreasing p53 immunoreactivity in the artery wall. These findings define a new role for YY1 as both an inducer of p53 instability in smooth muscle cells, and an indirect repressor of p21(WAF1/Cip1) transcription, p21(WAF1/Cip1)-cdk4-cyclin D1 assembly and intimal thickening.

Abstract
Genetic variation in the human cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) promoter has been shown to be associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and cardiovascular disease. Some of this variation occurs in Sp1/Sp3 binding sites in the proximal promoter. We find that both the known promoter polymorphism at -629 and the previously uncharacterized polymorphism at -38 are associated with HDL-C levels in vivo and affect transcription in vitro. While the -629 polymorphism is common in all ethnic groups, the -38 polymorphism is found at significant levels (6.4%) only among African Americans. Those homozygous for the less common -38A allele have higher HDL-C levels than those with the more frequent -38G allele. This association was found in a population of African Americans at risk of cardiovascular disease and then replicated in a different population chosen from among patients with extremes of HDL-C. When studied in vitro, the most transcriptionally active allele (-629C/-38G) yields 51% more reporter protein than the least active allele (-629A/-38A) in HepG2 cells. These transcriptional effects reflect the projected impact of increased CETP expression on HDL-C phenotypes seen in vivo.

Abstract
Beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase (beta-1,4-GalT) V is a constitutively expressed enzyme that can effectively galactosylate the GlcNAcbeta1-->6Man group of the highly branched N-glycans that are characteristic of tumor cells. Upon malignant transformation of cells, the expression of the beta-1,4-GalT V gene increases in accordance with the increase in the amounts of highly branched N-glycans. Lectin blot analysis showed that the galactosylation of highly branched N-glycans is inhibited significantly in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells by the transfection of the antisense beta-1,4-GalT V cDNA, indicating the biological importance of the beta-1,4-GalT V for the functions of highly branched N-glycans. We cloned the 2.3-kb 5'-flanking region of the human beta-1,4-GalT V gene, and we identified the region -116/-18 relative to the transcription start site as that having promoter activity. The region was found to contain several putative binding sites for transcription factors, including AP2, AP4, N-Myc, Sp1, and upstream stimulatory factor. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay showed that Sp1 binds to nucleotide positions -81/-69 of the promoter region. Mutations induced in the Sp1-binding site showed that the promoter activity of the beta-1,4-GalT V gene is impaired completely in cancer cells. In contrast, the promoter activity increased significantly by the transfection of the Sp1 cDNA into A549 human lung carcinoma cells. Mithramycin A, which inhibits the binding of Sp1 to its binding site, reduced the promoter activation and expression of the beta-1,4-GalT V gene in A549 cells. These results indicate that Sp1 plays an essential role in the transcriptional activity of the beta-1,4-GalT V gene in cancer cells.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The zinc finger protein ZNF202 is a transcriptional repressor controlling promoter elements predominantly found in genes involved in lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis. Here we summarize the structure, regulation and modulation of ZNF202 function by protein interactions. RECENT FINDINGS We review recent data and discuss the importance of the steadily growing list of ZNF202 target genes, defining a central role for ZNF202 as a key transcriptional regulator in metabolic disorders. Furthermore, we provide an interlink between transcriptional repression by ZNF202 and enhancement of gene activation via nuclear receptor coactivation by SCAN domain protein 1. SUMMARY The novel findings suggest that ZNF202 together with other SCAN domain proteins orchestrates a complex transcriptional regulatory network, which justifies a further exploration of its potential as a therapeutic target in lipid disorders such as atherosclerosis and associated metabolic syndromes.

Abstract
The thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter SLC12A3 displays expression restricted to distal convoluted tubule cells where it catalyzes the uptake of sodium and chloride through the apical membrane. We sequenced 1959 bp of the 5' flanking region of human SLC12A3, located the area of transcription initiation, and used deletion constructs of the flanking region to determine areas that affect reporter gene expression in two cell lines, MDCT and CHO. Amplification of the 5' end of SLC12A3 cDNA from an adapter-ligated human kidney cDNA library demonstrated that transcription initiation is confined to an area from -18 to -6 bp upstream of the translation start codon. Maximum promoter activity (9.815 +/- 0.864 times control) was observed in MDCT cells using a promoter containing 1019 bp of the 5' flanking region. A promoter containing only 134 bp of the 5' flanking region upstream of the translation initiation codon maintained reporter gene expression at levels equal to 75% of that maximally observed (7.375 +/- 0.533 times control). Sequence analysis of this minimal promoter responsible for most of the SLC12A3 promoter activity revealed a TATA element, two Sp binding sites, a potential E box, and a potential binding site for NF-1/CTF or NY-I/CP-I. This promoter, and all other promoter constructs from SLC12A3, displayed repressor activity in CHO cells. A construct containing sequence 94 bp upstream of the initiation codon with two potential Sp binding sites was required for this repression. Protein-DNA interactions between the 182 bp region immediately upstream of the start codon and the nuclear proteins from rat kidney cortex and HeLa cells were examined to further clarify the role of the putative binding sites for SLC12A3 expression. Physiological studies investigating the effects of osmolarity, pH, and mineralocorticoid steroid on promoter activity demonstrated that the promoter activity was repressed by acidification, whereas no effects of increased osmolarity or deoxycorticosterone acetate addition were observed.

Abstract
Transcription factor Sp4 is a member of the Sp1 family. It functions differently from other members of this family, such as Sp1 and Sp3, and the gene for Sp4 is transcribed in a tissue-specific manner. Recent studies in mice suggest that Sp4 might play an important role in growth, viability, and male fertility. We report here the isolation and characterization of the gene for Sp4 from a mouse genomic library. The mouse gene for Sp4 was about 80 kb in length and it consisted of six exons and five introns. The promoter was found in a CpG island and had a high G+C content. The proximal promoter contained multiple putative binding sites for the transcription factors Sp1 and MAZ but lacked a consensus TATA box. Multiple sites for the initiation of transcription were mapped in a GC-rich region from 286 bp to 211 bp upstream of the ATG triplet at the site of initiation of translation, and all of the sites were either C or G. Transfection experiments and deletion analysis allowed us to localize the promoter to a region that was no more than 93 bp upstream from the first site of initiation of transcription. We also found that ectopic expression of Sp1 and of MAZ, but not of Sp3, suppressed expression of the Sp4 promoter in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
Inspection of the 5' region of the sequence of the rat fatty acid synthase (FAS) gene revealed a high GC content between -900 and +500, implying several binding sites for members of the Sp1 family of transcription factors. Using SL2 and H4IIE cells in conjunction with FAS promoter/luciferase constructs either successively deleted or containing defined deletions we characterized six GC boxes--GC-I to GC-VI--located between -557 and -83 and discovered a seventh, GC-VII, in the first intron. In vitro DNAse I-footprinting, electrophoretic mobility shift assays, and the yeast one-hybrid system indicated that Sp1 as well as Sp3 interacts with GC-I to GC-VII. Each of the GC boxes conferred Sp1-dependent transcription on the FAS-Mini promoter and in the case of GC-I, Sp1, and Sp3 exert an additive effect on FAS promoter activity.

Abstract
The KCC1 K-Cl cotransporter is a major regulator of erythroid and non-erythroid cell volume, and the KCC1 gene is a candidate modifier gene for sickle cell disease and other hemoglobinopathies. We have cloned and sequenced the mouse KCC1 (mKCC1) gene, defined its intron-exon junctions, and analyzed (AC)/(TG) intragenic polymorphisms. A highly polymorphic (AC) repeat of mKCC1 intron 1 was characterized in musculus strains, and used to prove lack of linkage between the mKCC1 gene and the rol (resistant to osmotic lysis) locus. The intron 1 (AC) repeat in CAST/Ei and SPRET/Ei was not only more divergent in length but also underwent additional sequence variation. A dimorphic (TG) repeat in intron 2 distinguished CAST/Ei from other strains, and an intron 17 B1 Alu-like SINE present in all musculus strains was found to be absent from intron 17 in SPRET/Ei. These and additional described strain-specific polymorphisms will be useful mapping and genetic tools in the study of mouse models of sickle cell disease.

Abstract
A new polymorphism located at position -629 (CETP/-629A/C) in the promoter of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene is described. The -629A allele was associated with lower CETP mass (P<0. 0001) and higher high density lipoprotein cholesterol (P<0.001) than the C allele in a sample of 536 control subjects from the ECTIM study. Transfection studies in HepG2 cells with a luciferase expression vector incorporating a 777-bp fragment of the CETP promoter and containing either A or C at position -629 showed significantly lower luciferase activity with the promoter fragment of the A allele (-25%, P<0.05). By gel-shift assay, DNA-protein interactions were evaluated in nuclear extracts of HepG2 cells with the use of 2 probes (A or C probe) composed of 20 bp of the promoter sequence surrounding the polymorphic site. Two specific complexes of distinct migration rate were identified with the A and the C probe. Competition with an excess of oligonucleotide containing the Sp1 consensus binding site showed that a protein(s) of the Sp transcription factor family was implicated in complex formation with the A probe but not with the C probe. Incubation with specific antibodies indicated that Sp1 and Sp3 bound specifically to the A probe. We introduced mutations in the -629-Sp1 binding site to test its functionality and to define the characteristics of transcription factor binding. We showed, by gel-shift assay, that no nuclear proteins bound to the mutated sequence. Transient transfection of HepG2 cells revealed that the expression of the mutated fragment was significantly increased compared with that of the A promoter fragment (25%, P<0.05). The mutated fragment displayed the same activity as that of the C promoter. These results indicate that Sp1 and/or Sp3 repress CETP promoter activity, whereas nuclear factors binding the C allele are without effect on promoter expression.

Abstract
Endogenous galactoside-binding lectins (galectins) have been implicated in cell adhesion, growth, differentiation, neoplastic transformation, and metastasis. Galectin-1 (gal-1), one member of this family, has been best characterized. We isolated a DNA clone containing the gal-1 gene from mouse genomic libraries, and the sequence of the 5' upstream region up to -2430 bp was determined. Our previous study showed that sodium butyrate (butyrate) induced expression of gal-1 at both mRNA and protein levels in the murine embryonal carcinoma (EC) cell line PCC4.aza1R and the induction of gal-1 by butyrate in PCC4.aza1R cells is at least partially regulated at transcriptional level. To locate the region which is responsible for the induction of gal-1 by butyrate, transient transfection of PCC4.aza1R cells with a series of gal-1 promoter/CAT chimeric gene, which have different deletions of the 5' region of the gal-1 promoter, showed that this 2430 bp sequence is a butyrate-inducible promoter, and butyrate-inducible ability remained when only a 62 bp sequence ahead of the transcription site (+1) existed. The sequence from -62 to -41 which contains an Sp1 site at -57 was important for the induction of gal-1 expression by butyrate. Gel shift assay indicated that transcription factor SP1 actually bound to that Sp1 site. The changes of two nucleotides within that Sp1 site, from GG to TT, abolished the nuclear proteins binding to that Sp1 site as well as the response to butyrate. These results suggest that the 5' proximal Sp1 site at -57 is crucial for the butyrate-induced expression of the gal-1, and the direct binding of SP1 to this Sp1 site may be involved in this induction.

Abstract
Three promoters are operative in the rat prolactin receptor gene as follows: promoter I (PI) and II (PII) are specific for the gonads and liver, respectively, and promoter III (PIII) is common to several tissues. To investigate the mechanisms controlling the activity of promoter III, its regulatory elements and transcription factors were characterized in gonadal and non-gonadal cells. The TATA-less PIII domain was localized to the region -437 to -179 (ATG +1) containing the 5'-flanking region and part of the non-coding first exon. Within the promoter domain, a functional CAAT-box/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP) (-398) and an Sp1 element (-386), which bind C/EBPbeta and Sp1/Sp3, respectively, contribute individually to promoter activation in gonadal and non-gonadal cells. However, significant redundancy was demonstrated between these elements in non-gonadal cells. Additionally, an element within the non-coding exon 1 (-338) is also required for promoter activity. Activation of PIII by the widely expressed Sp1 and C/EBPbeta factors explains its common utilization in multiple tissues. Moreover, whereas the rat and mouse PIII share similar structure and function, the mouse PI lacks the functional SF-1 element and hence is inactive. These findings indicate that promoter III is of central importance in prolactin receptor gene transcription across species.
