The Interferon-Inducible p202 Protein as a Modulator of Transcription: Inhibition of NF-κB, c-Fos, and c-Jun Activities

Abstract: The interferons (IFNs) are cytokines with antiviral, antibacterial, antiprotozoal, immunomodulatory, and cell growth-regulatory functions. They exert these functions by controlling the expression of numerous genes encoding effector proteins (16,41,55,65). One set of effector proteins, including p202, p203, p204, and D3, is encoded by six or more structurally related and IFN-activatable murine genes at the q21-q23 region of chromosome 1 (gene 200 cluster) (13,36,42,48,59). Two homologous human proteins (myeloid… Show more

“…In this model, pRB would be required to antagonize the inhibitor. One protein that could ful®ll this role is p202; it is induced by IFNs, acts as a transcriptional repressor, and interacts directly with pRB (Choubey and Lengyel, 1995;Choubey et al, 1996;Min et al, 1996). The inhibitor could also be a protein like PU.1, which speci®cally represses Ab expression by binding an element next to the Y box, and also interacts with pRB (Borras et al, 1995;Hagemeier et al, 1993).…”

“…The expression of these molecules is limited to a few tissues, including subsets of hematopoietic cells and fibroblasts [40], and each is expressed in the nucleus either constitutively or inducibly after addition of IFN-␣ or -␥ [40]. The binding of p202 to cell growth regulatory proteins pRb [21] and p53 [22], and its ability to inhibit transcriptional activation through E2F [23], NF-B, c-Jun, and c-Fos [24] are clear evidence of a role in modulation of a number of generic transcriptional systems. We now have ample evidence that IFI 16 has similar properties in that it can act as a powerful transcriptional repressor in certain model systems in vitro, can bind to pRb, p53, c-Fos but not c-Jun both in vitro and in vivo, and can regulate the cell cycle [unpublished results].…”

“…The effect of p202 on transcription mediated by pRb remains to be elucidated, however, p202 can modulate E2F-mediated transcriptional activation by inhibiting sequencespecific DNA binding by E2F [23]. p202 can also associate with other growth regulatory proteins such as nuclear factor B (NF-B), c-Jun, and c-Fos both in vitro and in vivo, and can inhibit the transcriptional activity of these proteins by inhibiting their binding to DNA [24].…”

“…47 IFI202 is a transcription factor that influences proliferation, survival and differentiation of B cells and induced by both IFNa and IFNg. 48 Such an example indicates the need to investigate human IFN-inducible genes as well as genes in its signaling pathway as candidates for susceptibility genes to human SLE.…”
