Mouse F9 embryocarcinoma cells constitute
a well established cell autonomous model system for investigating
retinoic acid (RA) signaling in vitro. RA induces the
differentiation of F9 cells grown as monolayers into endodermal-like
cells and decreases their rate of proliferation. Knock-out of the
retinoic X receptor
(RXR
) gene abolishes endodermal
differentiation and the induction of several endogenous RA-responsive
genes. RXR
null cells are also drastically impaired in their
antiproliferative response to RA. The role of the RXR
phosphorylation site located in the N-terminal A region
(Ser22) has been investigated here by establishing cell
lines re-expressing RXR
either wild type or mutated at the
phosphorylation site (RXR
S22A) in a RXR
-null background. We show
that Ser22 is dispensable for RA-induced endodermal
differentiation but is crucial for the expression of several
RA-responsive genes. Ser22 is also indispensable for the
antiproliferative effect of RA and necessary for the RA-induced
down-regulation of p21CIP and p27KIP
CKIs proteins that are known to be involved in the control of cell cycle progression.
