Relaxation of skeletal muscle requires the
re-uptake of Ca2+, which is mediated by the sarcoplasmic
reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA). Thyroid hormone
(T3) stimulates the expression of the SERCA1 isoform, which
is essential for fast skeletal muscle fiber phenotype. We have cloned
and studied the first 962 base pairs of the 5 -flanking region of the
rat SERCA1 gene. This sequence was tested for T3-regulated
expression in transient transfection experiments using COS7 cells and
for binding of thyroid hormone receptor (TR) in mobility shift
assays. A construct of the 5 -flanking region and a reporter gene was
unresponsive to T3 in the absence of co-transfected thyroid
hormone receptor. In the presence of TR , a T3 induction
ratio of almost 4.0 was found, and this induction ratio was doubled
with co-transfection of an RXR expression plasmid. Analysis of
progressive 5 -deletion fragments of the sequence indicated multiple
regions involved in T3 responsiveness. Three regions, R1,
R2, and R3, were identified that bound TR complexes in mobility shift
assays and conferred T3 responsiveness to a heterologous
promoter. The most potent of these thyroid hormone response elements,
R3, increased the 2-fold background T3 stimulation of the
thymidine kinase promoter to nearly 6-fold. Detailed analysis of this
element showed that four TR-binding half-sites, comprising two
independent thyroid hormone response elements, interact cooperatively to give the maximal T3 response. T3 regulation
of SERCA1 expression is mediated by a complex thyroid hormone response
element that may serve to provide a greater range of response in
interaction with nuclear receptor partners or cell-specific
transcription factors.
