The transcriptional activity of natural
promoters is sensitive to the precise spatial arrangement of DNA
elements and their incorporation into higher order DNA-protein
complexes. STAT3 and c-Jun form a specific ternary complex
in vitro with a synthetic DNA element containing AP1 and
SIE sites. These associations are critical for synergistic
activation of transcription from a synthetic promoter by STAT3 and
c-Jun. Expression of the acute phase protein 2-macroglobulin is induced in vivo by
interleukin-6 (IL-6)-related cytokines; we demonstrate that coordinate
interactions among STAT3, c-Jun, and a specific array of DNA elements
contribute to activation of the 2-macroglobulin promoter
in response to IL-6 family members. At least five promoter elements are
involved in activation: two AP1 sites at 113 to 107 and 152 to
140, an acute phase response element (APRE (SIE)) at 171 to 163,
and two AT-rich regions at 143 to 138 and 128 to 123. Synergism
between STAT3 or STAT3-C and c-Jun is impaired by mutation of the APRE
(SIE) or either AP1 site, as well as by mutations that alter the
AT-rich regions or their phasing. Mutations of STAT3 previously shown
to disrupt physical and functional interactions with c-Jun do not
impair synergy between STAT3-C and c-Jun at the
2-macroglobulin promoter in HepG2 cells, suggesting that
STAT3-C and STAT3 differ with respect to their precise contacts with
c-Jun.
