Abstract:
:The proto-oncogene c-myb is essential for a controlled balance between cell growth and differentiation. Aberrant c-Myb activity has been reported for numerous human cancers, and enforced c-Myb transcription can transform cells of lymphoid origin by stimulating cellular proliferation and inhibiting apoptotic pathways. Here we demonstrate that activation of the NF-kappaB pathway by the HTLV-1 Tax protein leads to transcriptional inactivation of c-Myb. This conclusion was supported by the fact that Tax mutants unable to stimulate the NF-kappaB pathway could not inhibit c-Myb transactivating functions. In addition, inhibition of Tax-mediated NF-kappaB activation by coexpression of IkappaBalpha restored c-Myb transcription, and Tax was unable to block c-Myb transcription in a NEMO knockout cell line. Importantly, physiological stimuli, such as signaling with the cellular cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1 beta (IL-1beta), and lipopolysaccharide, also inhibited c-Myb transcription. These results uncover a new link between extracellular signaling and c-Myb-dependent transcription. The mechanism underlying NF-kappaB-mediated repression was identified as sequestration of the coactivators CBP/p300 by RelA. Interestingly, an amino-terminal deletion form of p300 lacking the C/H1 and KIX domains and unable to bind RelA retained the ability to stimulate c-Myb transcription and prevented NF-kappaB-mediated repression.
