Abstract
  • Thyrotropin (TSH) increases 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase gene transcription in FRTL-5 rat thyroid cells, and the effect of TSH can be mimicked by cAMP. Sequence analysis of the rat reductase promoter has revealed a hitherto unnoticed cAMP-responsive element (CRE)-like octamer. This octamer is located between 53 and 60 nucleotides downstream of the sterol regulatory element 1; its first 6 nucleotides are identical to the consensus somatostatin CRE, and the entire octamer is identical to the fos CRE. A synthetic oligonucleotide containing the HMG-CoA reductase CRE-like octamer (RED CRE) formed protein-DNA complexes with nuclear extracts from FRTL-5 cells, which could be prevented by unlabeled CRE-containing oligonucleotides whose flanking sequences were otherwise nonidentical. The complexes were specifically supershifted by anti-CREB antibodies. FRTL-5 cells transfected with a fusion plasmid carrying the bacterial chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) under the control of the HMG-CoA reductase promoter displayed CAT activity, which was specifically stimulated by TSH. In contrast, CAT activity in FRTL-5 cells transfected with similar constructs carrying mutations in the reductase CRE was significantly lower and did not increase after TSH challenge. We suggest that the HMG-CoA reductase gene contains a functional CRE, important for TSH regulation of transcription. The data presented provide the molecular basis for a novel regulatory mechanism for HMG-CoA reductase gene expression in rat thyroid cells, which involves the direct effect of cAMP. (literal)
