To examine the role of the -myosin heavy chain
( MyHC) distal muscle CAT (MCAT) element in muscle fiber
type-specific expression and mechanical overload (MOV) responsiveness,
we conducted transgenic and in vitro experiments. In adult
transgenic mice, mutation of the distal MCAT element led to significant
reductions in chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) specific activity
measured in control soleus and plantaris muscles when compared with
wild type transgene 293WT but did not abolish MOV-induced CAT
specific activity. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed the
formation of a specific low migrating nuclear protein complex (LMC) at
the MyHC MCAT element that was highly enriched only when
using either MOV plantaris or control soleus nuclear extract.
Scanning mutagenesis of the MyHC distal MCAT element revealed that
only the nucleotides comprising the core MCAT element were essential
for LMC formation. The proteins within the LMC when using either MOV
plantaris or control soleus nuclear extracts were antigenically related
to nominal transcription enhancer factor 1 (NTEF-1), poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), and Max. Only in vitro translated TEF-1
protein bound to the distal MCAT element, suggesting that this
multiprotein complex is tethered to the DNA via TEF-1. Protein-protein
interaction assays revealed interactions between nominal TEF-1, PARP,
and Max. Our studies show that for transgene 293 the distal MCAT element is not required for MOV responsiveness but suggest that a
multiprotein complex likely comprised of nominal TEF-1, PARP, and Max
forms at this element to contribute to basal slow fiber expression.
