Abstract:
:p73 has been shown to transcriptionally activate genes positively responsive to wild-type p53. In order to undertake a comparative study of functions of p53 and p73 we have cloned the cDNA of p73 from MCF-7 cells. Adenovirus onco-protein E1A inhibits the transactivation by p73; a deletion mutant of E1A incapable of interacting with p300 and CREB-binding protein (CBP) fails to disrupt the transactivation. Furthermore, CBP increases the transactivation mediated by p73 suggesting that CBP may function as a co-activator and E1A inhibits p73-mediated transactivation by sequestering p300 or CBP. We show that p73 can transcriptionally inhibit a number of cellular and viral promoters. However, wild-type p53, p73 alpha and p73 beta differ in their ability to inhibit transcriptional activity of different promoters. While wild-type p53 inhibits the promoters of the human cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate-early gene, the long terminal repeat of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV LTR), human cyclin A (cyc A) gene, and insulin-like growth factor receptor I (IGF-I-R), p73 alpha only inhibits the HIV LTR and cyc A promoters significantly; and p73 beta inhibits the CMV, HIV LTR and cyc A promoters. A mutant of p73 alpha having amino acid substitutions at positions 268 and 300 on the presumptive DNA-binding domain fails to transactivate the p21 promoter but represses the CMV and the HIV LTR promoter quite efficiently showing that the mechanisms of transactivation and repression by p73 are different. Interestingly, p73 alpha transactivates the IGF-I-R promoter, which is inhibited by wild-type p53; p73 beta has no significant effect on this promoter. This is a unique situation where p73 alpha differs from p73 beta as well as p53.
