B TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR AND GENE
ACCESSIBILITY*
§,
From the Interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF-7) plays an
important role in innate immunity, where, together with IRF-3, it
controls the expression of interferon A/B genes as well as chemokine
RANTES (regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted). Previously, we characterized human IRF-7 promoter and showed that an
interferon-stimulated response element site in the first intron binds interferon-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3) and confers the
response to interferon. Here we report the stimulation of IRF-7
expression by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and tumor necrosis factor

(TNF
) in human peripheral blood
monocytes. Using promoter analysis in combination with electrophoretic
mobility shift assays, we have demonstrated that an NF
B site located
next to the TATA box, binds p50 and p65 heterodimer and is required for
the induction of the IRF-7 gene by TPA and TNF
. In addition, we
report stimulation of IRF-7 gene expression by topoisomerase II (TOPII)
inhibitors. We show by chromatin immunoprecipitation assay that
treatment with the TOPII inhibitor etoposide induces association of acetylated histone 3 with the promoter of IRF-7 gene,
indicating that TOPII-mediated changes in chromatin structure could be
responsible for the induction. This suggests that the IRF-7 gene
is localized in the condensed area of the chromosome where it is
inaccessible to transcription factors that would promote its
constitutive expression.
