Mouse As4.1 cells, obtained after
transgene-targeted oncogenesis to induce neoplasia in renal
renin-expressing cells, express high levels of renin mRNA from the
endogenous Ren-1c gene. We have used these cells to
characterize the role of the Ren-1c proximal
promoter (+6 to

117) in the regulation of renin gene transcription.
It was found that 4.1 kilobases (kb) of Ren-1c
5
-flanking sequence, in combination with the proximal promoter, are
required for strong activation (~2 orders of magnitude over the basal
level of the promoter alone) of the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase
reporter in transfection assays. Within the 4.1-kb fragment, a 241-base
pair region was identified that retains full activity in an
orientation-independent manner in combination with the promoter. The
resulting transcripts initiate at the normal renin start site.
Electrophoretic mobility shift assays identified a sequence at
approximately position
60 in the promoter region that binds nuclear
proteins specific for renin-expressing As4.1 cells. Mutations in this
sequence, which disrupt binding of nuclear protein(s), completely
abolish activation of transcription by the 4.1-kb fragment. Activation
of transcription by the 241-base pair enhancer was still observed,
although it was diminished in magnitude (60-fold over the mutated
promoter alone). We present a model derived from the current data that
suggests that regulation of renin expression is achieved through
cooperation of transcription factors binding at the proximal promoter
element and a distal enhancer element to abrogate or override the
effects of an intervening negative regulatory region.
