Abstract:
:The activating transcription factor, ATF-2, is a target of p38 and JNK that are involved in stress-induced apoptosis. Heterozygous Atf-2 mutant (Atf-2+/-) mice are highly prone to mammary tumors. The apoptosis-regulated gene GADD45alpha and the breast cancer suppressor gene Maspin, both of which are known to be p53 target genes, are downregulated in the mammary tumors arisen in Atf-2+/- mice. Here, we have analysed how ATF-2 controls the transcription of GADD45alpha and Maspin. ATF-2 and p53 independently activate the GADD45alpha transcription. ATF-2 does not directly bind to the GADD45alpha promoter; instead, it is recruited via Oct-1 and NF-I. ATF-2 simultaneously binds to Oct-1, NF-I and breast cancer suppressor BRCA1 to activate transcription. With regard to Maspin, ATF-2 and p53 directly bind to different sites in the Maspin promoter to independently activate its transcription. Consistent with the observation that ATF-2 and p53 independently activate the transcription of Maspin and GADD45alpha is that the loss of one copy of p53 shortened the period required for mammary tumor development in Atf-2+/- mice. These studies suggest the functional link between the ATF-2 and the two tumor suppressors BRCA1 and p53.
