Abstract
Adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) stimulates phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) gene transcription, whereas insulin has the opposite effect. In H4IIE cells, the effect of insulin is dominant since it represses cAMP-stimulated transcription. Discrete cis-acting elements in the PEPCK promoter that serve as an insulin response sequence (IRS) and cAMP response element (CRE) have been identified. Here we show that common proteins can bind both elements, since: (i) an almost identical pattern of protein binding is seen when oligonucleotides representing either the IRS or the CRE are used as the labeled probe in a gel retardation assay and (ii) the unlabeled wild-type, but not mutated, CRE oligonucleotide competes for protein binding to the labeled IRS probe, and vice versa. Six homo- and heterodimer complexes interact with these DNA elements; the complexes are composed of three individual protein species: (a) 42-kDa C/EBP alpha, (b) 30-kDa C/EBP alpha, and (c) an unidentified 20-kDa factor termed p20- CRE/IRS Binding Protein (p20-C/IBP). These proteins have a 30-fold greater affinity for the CRE at room temperature, a difference explained by the rapid dissociation rate of protein bound to the IRS, since the association rate of protein binding to both the IRS and CRE is the same. Protease digestion experiments suggest that the proteins bind to the CRE and IRS in different conformations. The IRS and CRE both function in the context of a heterologous promoter to mediate effects of insulin and cAMP, respectively, but, although the PEPCK IRS and CRE bind common proteins, the PEPCK CRE is not a functional IRS and the PEPCK IRS is not a functional CRE.
