The orphan nuclear receptor TR2 functions as a
constitutive activator for the endogenous retinoic acid receptor 2
(RAR 2) gene expression in P19 embryonal carcinoma cells
and for reporters driven by the RAR 2 promoter in COS-1
cells. The activation of RAR 2 by TR2 is mediated by the
direct repeat-5 (DR5) element located in the RAR 2
promoter. Furthermore, cAMP exerts an enhancing effect on the
activation of RAR 2 by TR2, which is mediated by the cAMP
response element located in the 5'-flanking region of the DR5. The
constitutive activation function-1 (AF-1) of TR2 is mapped to amino
acid residues 10-30 in its N-terminal A segment. A direct molecular
interaction occurs between CREM and TR2, detected by
co-immunoprecipitation, which is mediated by the N-terminal AB segment
of TR2. In gel mobility shift assays, TR2 competes with P19 nuclear
factor binding to the RAR 2 promoter, and TR2 and CREM
bind simultaneously to this DNA fragment. The role of TR2 in the early
events of RA signaling process is discussed.
