Mouse As4.1 cells, obtained after
transgene-targeted oncogenesis to induce neoplasia in renal renin
expressing cells, express high levels of renin mRNA from their
endogenous Ren-1c gene. We have previously
identified a 242-base pair enhancer (coordinates 2866 to 2625
relative to the CAP site) upstream of the mouse
Ren-1c gene. This enhancer, in combination with
the proximal promoter ( 117 to +6), activates transcription nearly 2 orders of magnitude in an orientation independent fashion. To further
delimit sequences necessary for transcriptional activation, renin
promoter-luciferase reporter gene constructs containing selected
regions of the Ren-1c enhancer were analyzed
after transfection into As4.1 cells. These results demonstrate that
several regions are required for full enhancer activity. Sequences from
2699 to 2672, which are critical for the enhancer activity, contain
a cyclic AMP responsive element (CRE) and an E-box. Electrophoretic
mobility shift assays demonstrated that transcription factors
CREB/CREM and USF1/USF2 in As4.1 cell nuclear extracts bind to
oligonucleotides containing the Ren-1c CRE and
E-box, respectively. These two elements are capable of synergistically
activating transcription from the Ren-1c
promoter. Moreover, mutation of either the CRE or E-box results in
almost complete loss of enhancer activity, suggesting the critical roles these two elements play in regulating mouse
Ren-1c gene expression. Although the
Ren-1c gene contains a CRE, its
expression is not induced by cAMP in As4.1 cells. This appears to
reflect constitutive activation of protein kinase A in As4.1 cells
since treatment with the protein kinase A inhibitor, H-89, caused a
significant reduction in Ren-1c gene expression
and this reduction is mediated through the CRE at 2699 to
2688.
