Abstract
Within the basolateral membrane of thyroid follicular epithelial cells, two transporter proteins are central to thyroid hormone (TH) biosynthesis and secretion. The sodium iodide symporter (NIS) delivers iodide from the bloodstream into the thyroid, and after TH biosynthesis, monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) mediates TH secretion from the thyroid gland. Pituitary tumor-transforming gene-binding factor (PBF; PTTG1IP) is a protooncogene that is up-regulated in thyroid cancer and that binds NIS and modulates its subcellular localization and function. We now show that PBF binds MCT8 in vitro, eliciting a marked shift in MCT8 subcellular localization and resulting in a significant reduction in the amount of MCT8 at the plasma membrane as determined by cell surface biotinylation assays. Colocalization and interaction between PBF and Mct8 was also observed in vivo in a mouse model of thyroid-specific PBF overexpression driven by a bovine thyroglobulin (Tg) promoter (PBF-Tg). Thyroidal Mct8 mRNA and protein expression levels were similar to wild-type mice. Critically, however, PBF-Tg mice demonstrated significantly enhanced thyroidal TH accumulation and reduced TH secretion upon TSH stimulation. Importantly, Mct8-knockout mice share this phenotype. These data show that PBF binds and alters the subcellular localization of MCT8 in vitro, with PBF overexpression leading to an accumulation of TH within the thyroid in vivo. Overall, these studies identify PBF as the first protein to interact with the critical TH transporter MCT8 and modulate its function in vivo. Furthermore, alongside NIS repression, PBF may thus represent a new regulator of TH biosynthesis and secretion.

Abstract
C-terminal-binding protein interacting protein (CtIP) was first isolated as a binding partner of C-terminal-binding protein (CtBP). It is considered to contribute to the transcriptional repression and cell cycle regulatory properties of the retinoblastoma (Rb) family of proteins and to have a role in the cellular response to DNA damage. Here, we have shown that CtIP is a novel target for the adenovirus oncoprotein early region 1A (AdE1A). AdE1A associates with CtIP in both Ad5E1-transformed cells and Ad5-infected cells and binds directly in glutathione-S-transferase pull-down assays. Two binding sites have been mapped on Ad5E1A - the N-terminal alpha-helical region (residues 1-30) and conserved region 3 (CR3) - the transcriptional activation domain. CtIP can bind AdE1A and CtBP independently, raising the possibility that ternary complexes exist in Ad-transformed and -infected cells. Significantly, reduction of CtIP expression with small interfering RNAs results in reduction of the ability of a Gal4 DNA-binding domain-CR3 construct to transactivate a Gal 4-responsive luciferase reporter and this effect is reversed by reduction of CtBP expression. Therefore, in this model, CtIP acts as a transcriptional co-activator of AdE1A when dissociated from CtBP, through the action of AdE1A. These data are consistent with observations that CtIP expression is induced by AdE1A during viral infection and that reduction of CtIP expression with RNA interference can retard virus replication. In addition, AdE1A causes disruption of the CtIP/Rb complex during viral infection by its interaction with CtIP, possibly contributing to transcriptional derepression.

Abstract
Adenovirus early region 1A (E1A) possesses potent transforming activity when expressed in concert with activated ras or E1B genes in in vitro tissue culture systems such as embryonic human retinal neuroepithelial cells or embryonic rodent epithelial and fibroblast cells. Early region 1A has thus been used extensively and very effectively as a tool to determine the molecular mechanisms that underlie the basis of cellular transformation. In this regard, roles for the E1A-binding proteins pRb, p107, p130, cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CBP)/p300, p400, TRRAP and CtBP in cellular transformation have been established. However, the mechanisms by which E1A promotes transformation through interaction with these partner proteins are not fully delineated. In this review, we focus on recent advances in our understanding of CBP/p300 function, particularly with regard to its relationship to the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome E3 ubiquitin ligase, which has recently been shown to interact and affect the activity of CBP/p300 through interaction domains that are evolutionarily conserved in E1A.

Abstract
We have identified the N-terminus of adenovirus early region 1A (AdE1A) as a region that can regulate the 26S proteasome. Specifically, in vitro and in vivo co-precipitation studies have revealed that the 19S regulatory components of the proteasome, Sug1 (S8) and S4, bind through amino acids (aa) 4-25 of Ad5 E1A. In vivo expression of wild-type (wt) AdE1A, in contrast to the N-terminal AdE1A mutant that does not bind the proteasome, reduces ATPase activity associated with anti-S4 immunoprecipitates relative to mock-infected cells. This reduction in ATPase activity correlates positively with the ability of wt AdE1A, but not the N-terminal deletion mutant, to significantly reduce the ability of HPV16 E6 to target p53 for ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation. AdE1A/proteasomal complexes are present in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus, suggesting that AdE1A interferes with both nuclear and cytoplasmic proteasomal degradation. We have also demonstrated that wt AdE1A and the N-terminal AdE1A deletion mutant are substrates for proteasomal-mediated degradation. AdE1A degradation is not, however, mediated through ubiquitylation, but is regulated through phosphorylation of residues within a C-terminal PEST region (aa 224-238).

Abstract
The adenovirus early region 1B (Ad E1B) genes have no transforming capability of their own but markedly increase the transformation frequency of Ad E1A following co-transfection into mammalian cells. The larger E1B proteins of both Ad2/5 and Ad12 bind to p53 and inhibit its ability to transcriptionally activate other genes. We have previously demonstrated that synthetic peptides identical to the binding sites for p53 on both the Ad2 and Ad12 E1B proteins will disrupt the interaction in vivo and in vitro. In the work presented here we have examined the effects of complex dissociation on Ad E1-transformed human cells. It has been shown, using confocal microscopy, that when the peptide identical to the p53 binding site was added to Ad5 E1-transformed cells it initally located in the cytoplasmic dense bodies where it caused disruption of the p53/E1B complex. Peptide and p53 then translocated to the nucleus. In Ad12 E1-transformed cells the peptide localized in the nucleus directly and there caused a reorganization of p53 staining from a highly organized, 'flecked' distribution to one in which nuclear staining was homogeneous and diffuse. Peptides added to either Ad5 E1 or Ad12 E1 transformed cells resulted in the release of transcriptionally active p53. Interestingly, the level of p53 then fell presumably as a result of proteasomal action - this was probably a reflection of the short half-life of 'free' (i.e. dissociated) p53 compared to that of the bound protein. Free p53 did not cause apoptosis in target cells probably due to the presence of the smaller (19K) E1B proteins. However, addition of peptide leads to a significant reduction in cell growth rate. We have further demonstrated that a significant proportion of those cells which had taken up peptide had ceased DNA synthesis, probably due to a p53-induced cell cycle arrest. The role of the larger EIB protein during transformation is considered in view of these data.

Abstract
Recent reports suggest that an early region 1B (E1B) 55, 000-molecular-weight polypeptide (55K)-null adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) mutant (dl1520) can replicate to the same extent as wild-type (wt) Ad5 in cells either deficient or mutated in p53, implicating p53 in limiting viral replication in vivo. In contrast, we show here that the replicative capacity of Ad5 dl1520 is wholly independent of host cell p53 status, as is the replicative capacity of comparable Ad12 E1B 54K-null adenoviruses (Ad12 dl620 and Ad12 hr703). Furthermore, we show that there is no requirement for complex formation between p53 and Ad5 E1B 55K or Ad12 E1B 54K for a productive infection, such that wt Ad5 and wt Ad12 will both replicate in cells which are null for p53. In addition, we find that these Ad5 and Ad12 mutant viruses induce S phase irrespective of the p53 status of the cell and that, therefore, S-phase induction does not correlate with the replicative capacity of the virus. Interestingly, the replicative capacities of the large E1B-null adenoviruses correlated positively with the ability to express E1B 19K and were related to the ability to repress premature adenovirus-induced apoptosis. Infection of primary human cells indicated that Ad5 dl1520, wt Ad5, and wt Ad12 replicated better in cycling normal human skin fibroblasts (HSFs) than in quiescent HSFs. Thus, the cell cycle status of the host cell, upon infection, also influences viral yield.

Abstract
Adenovirus early region 1A (Ad E1A) is a multifunctional protein which is essential for adenovirus-mediated transformation and oncogenesis. Whilst E1A is generally considered to exert its influence on recipient cells through regulation of transcription it also increases the level of cellular p53 by increasing the protein half-life. With this in view, we have investigated the relationship of Ad E1A to the proteasome, which is normally responsible for degradation of p53. Here we have shown that both Ad5 and Ad12 E1A 12S and 13S proteins can be co-immunoprecipitated with proteasomes and that the larger Ad12 E1A protein binds strongly to at least three components of the 26S but not 20S proteasome. One of these interacting species has been identified as mammalian SUGI, a proteasome regulatory component which also plays a role in the cell as a mediator of transcription. In vitro assays have demonstrated a direct interaction between Ad12 E1A 13S protein and mouse SUGI. Following infection of human cells with Ad5 wt and Ad5 mutants with lesions in the E1A gene it has been shown that human SUG1 can be co-immunoprecipitated with full-length E1A and with E1A carrying a deletion in conserved region 1 which is the region considered to be responsible for increased expression of p53. We have concluded therefore that Ad EIA binds strongly to SUGI but that this interaction is not responsible for inhibition of proteasome activity. This is consistent with the observation that purified Ad12 E1A inhibits the activity of the purified 20S but not 26S proteasomes. We have also demonstrated that SUGI can be co-immunoprecipitated with SV40 T and therefore we suggest that this may represent a common interaction of transforming proteins of DNA tumour viruses.

Abstract
It has previously been shown that following viral infection, Ad5 E1A induces cell cycle progression of quiescent rodent cells, leading to DNA synthesis and mitosis. Here we have examined the effect of Ad12 E1A on the cell cycle characteristics of human cells. Human tumor (A549, KB, and HeLa) cells were infected with Ad12 d/620, a mutant virus which has a lesion in the E1B gene and essentially expresses only E1A. These infected cells progressed from being largely in G1 into S phase, where they arrested. Even up to 96 h postinfection (p.i.) the cells remained blocked in S phase. DNA synthesis did, however, proceed in Ad12 d/620-infected cells, giving rise to multiple copies of cellular DNA. Similar results were obtained when primary human skin fibroblasts were infected, although the polyploidy was less marked. The expression of cyclins A, B1, and E in the tumor cells increased appreciably in response to E1A. In contrast, there was a dramatic reduction in the levels of cyclin D1 and D3. Increases in cyclin D1 expression could be detected at very late times p.i. In those cell lines expressing low levels of cdc2 and cdk2 an appreciable increase in expression was seen soon after Ad12 E1A could be detected. The elevated levels of cyclins A, B1, and E were associated with increased protein kinase activity directed against histone H1. An increase in cyclin D1-associated kinase activity against Rb1 was also observed at late times. This deregulation of the cell cycle was not solely dependent on E1A inactivation of Rb, since similar effects were seen in Ad12 d/620-infected retinoblastoma (Y-79) cells, implicating p107 and p130 in E1A-mediated changes in cell cycle progression. We propose that the E1A-induced levels of cyclins A, B1, and E by Ad12 E1A in human cells may lead to an uncoupling of S phase from cell cycle progression.

Abstract
Adenovirus 12 early region 1A (Ad12 E1A) was expressed in Escherichia coli. Protein was purified in good yield in the presence of 8 M urea and then renatured by dialysis against dilute NH4HCO3 buffer. The affinity of this protein for pRb, C-terminal binding protein (CtBP), TATA binding protein (TBP), and SUG1 was similar to, or greater than, that of Ad12 E1A prepared by immunoaffinity chromatography under nondenaturing conditions. While the binding of the 266- and 235-amino-acid (aa) E1A components to TBP showed similar characteristics the larger E1A protein had a higher affinity for CtBP, pRb, and SUG1. Using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy it was shown that structural perturbations occurred in the 266-aa protein in the presence of Zn2+ consistent with binding--no such changes were seen for the 235-aa protein. Limited proteolysis of the 266- and 235-aa E1A proteins gave rise to comparable polypeptide products, suggesting overall similarities in structure. However, the different affinities of the 266- and 235-aa proteins for the partner proteins and the differences seen in the NMR spectra from the two proteins suggested structural differences.

Abstract
The mechanism by which thrombin and prothrombin control neurite retraction was studied in Ad12E1HER10 human neuroepithelial cells. Morphological changes in differentiated cells were apparent within minutes of the addition of very low concentrations of thrombin (3 pM). Higher concentrations (2 nM) of prothrombin were required to elicit a similar response. Doses of thrombin and prothrombin sufficient to cause neurite retraction stimulated protein tyrosine kinase activity. Protein tyrosine kinase activation also correlated positively with thrombin- and prothrombin-induced phosphoinositide 3-kinase activation and InsP6 dephosphorylation. However, thrombin-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 generation and intracellular Ca2+ mobilization only occurred at concentrations in excess of those needed to induce retraction. No fluctuations in Ins(1,4,5)P3 were detected after stimulation with prothrombin, and no rapid synchronized release of Ca2+ was observed, even at very high concentrations. Prothrombin did, however, cause small oscillations in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, similar to those produced by low concentrations of thrombin, after approximately 30 min. We conclude that prothrombin- and thrombin-induced neurite retractions are not dependent on PtdIns(4,5)P2 and Ca2+ mobilization, but are more probably mediated through an effector mechanism involving protein tyrosine kinase activation. No intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, protein tyrosine kinase activity or neurite retraction was observed after treatment of cells with proteolytically inactive mutant thrombin (S205-->A). Prothrombin-mediated intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and neurite retraction were inhibited by hirudin, which was shown to interact with thrombin but not prothrombin. It is concluded that cleavage of prothrombin to thrombin is a necessary prerequisite for biological activity on differentiated Ad12E1HER10 cells and that differences in agonist concentration are capable of coupling the thrombin receptor to different pathways within the cell.

Abstract
A homogeneous population of undifferentiated myeloid blast cells was purified from human fetal liver by rosette sedimentation of erythroblasts and macrophages, after coating these cells with monoclonal antibodies, followed by a cell elutriation step. The undifferentiated blast cells were maintained in culture, in a serum-free medium containing 1 mg l-1 inositol, by the presence of a high concentration of interleukin-3 (100 U ml-1). This allowed equilibrium labelling of cells with [2-3H]myo-inositol and analysis of the concentrations of inositol metabolites. The myeloid blast cells contained high concentrations of an unidentified inositol metabolite, possibly sn-glycero-3-phospho-1-inositol (GroPIns, 22 microM), inositol monophosphate (InsP, 16 microM), an unidentified inositol bisphosphate (InsP2, 9.4 microM), inositol pentakisphosphate (InsP5, 37 microM) and inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6, 31 microM). These high concentrations are similar to those reported in the promyeloid cell line, HL60. Treatment of the blast cells with 10 nM phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) resulted in rapid differentiation of 48% of the cells towards monocytes. Notable changes in the levels of inositol metabolites included an increase in the putative GroPIns peak (to 73 microM) and decreases in the concentrations of InsP4 (from 4 microM to 1 microM) and InsP5 (to 21 microM). These changes in response to PMA, with the exception of the rise in the putative GroPIns, are similar to those reported in HL60 cells undergoing monocyte differentiation. These observations suggest that the abundant inositol polyphosphates may have an as yet unknown role in myeloid differentiation.
