Abstract:
:Activation of the p53 tumor suppressor protein can lead to either cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. Several functional domains necessary for mediating cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in p53 have been mapped, e.g., the proline-rich domain. The proline-rich domain is located within residues 60-90, which comprise five PXXP motifs (where P represents proline and X any amino acid). To further delineate the function of the proline-rich domain and its potential role in transactivation, we generated several groups of cell lines that inducibly express various p53 mutants using a tetracycline-regulated expression system. We found that p53(delta62-91), which lacks all five PXXP motifs in human p53, is capable of inducing cell cycle arrest but not apoptosis, while p53(gln22-ser23/delta62-91), which contains a double point mutation in the activation domain as well as deletion of the proline-rich domain, completely loses its activity. However, p53(delta74-91), which contains only one PXXP motif at its N-terminus, is not only capable of inducing cell cycle arrest but also retains a partial apoptotic activity. Furthermore, we found that deletion of the proline-rich region has no or very mild effects on activation of several transiently transfected p53 target gene promoters, i.e., the p21, MDM2, BAX, and GADD45 promoters. However, such deletion differentially affects p53 induction of endogenous target genes, i.e., induction of p21, MDM2, BTG2, p85, PIG3, PIG6 and PIG11 was reduced or abrogated but induction of BAX, KILLER/DR5, PIG2, PIG7 and PIG8 was not substantially affected. Interestingly, induction of GADD45 was enhanced. These results suggest that the proline-rich region may play a role in chromatin remodeling, which counteracts chromatin-mediated repression for some of the endogenous p53 target genes.
