Glucose-6-phosphatase is a multicomponent system
that catalyzes the terminal step in gluconeogenesis. To examine the
effect of the cAMP signal transduction pathway on expression of the
gene encoding the mouse glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit
(G6Pase), the liver-derived HepG2 cell line was transiently
co-transfected with a series of G6Pase-chloramphenicol
acetyltransferase fusion genes and an expression vector encoding the
catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA).
PKA markedly stimulated G6Pase-chloramphenicol acetyltransferase fusion
gene expression, and mutational analysis of the G6Pase promoter
revealed that multiple cis-acting elements were required for this
response. One of these elements was mapped to the G6Pase promoter
region between
114 and
99, and this sequence was shown to bind
hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-6. This HNF-6 binding site was able to
confer a stimulatory effect of PKA on the expression of a heterologous
fusion gene; a mutation that abolished HNF-6 binding also abolished the
stimulatory effect of PKA. Further investigation revealed that PKA
phosphorylated HNF-6 in vitro. Site-directed mutation of
three consensus PKA phosphorylation sites in the HNF-6 carboxyl
terminus markedly reduced this phosphorylation. These results suggest
that the stimulatory effect of PKA on G6Pase fusion gene transcription
in HepG2 cells may be mediated in part by the phosphorylation of
HNF-6.
