In analyzing cis-regulatory elements important
for cell cycle control of the replication-dependent hamster
histone H3.2 gene, we discovered a binding site for the transcription
factor YY1 embedded within GC-rich sequences between the two tandem
CCAAT repeats proximal to the TATA element. Base mutations that
specifically eliminated YY1 binding resulted in suppression of the S
phase induction of the H3.2 promoter. In addition, we discovered that YY1 is an interactive partner of AP-2, which also binds the H3.2 promoter and regulates its cell cycle-dependent expression.
The critical domains for YY1 and AP-2A interaction are mapped,
revealing that the N-terminal portion of YY1 (amino acids 1-300) and
the DNA-binding/dimerization region of AP-2A are required. Our results suggest that YY1, acting as a transcription factor binding to its site
on the promoter, or through protein-protein interaction with AP-2, may
be part of a regulatory network including key cell cycle regulators
such as c-Myc and Rb in controlling growth- and differentiation-regulated gene expression.
