Acid -glucosidase (GAA) is a lysosomal enzyme
that degrades glycogen. A deficiency of GAA is responsible for a
recessively inherited myopathy and cardiomyopathy, glycogenosis type
II. Previously, we identified an intronic repressor element in
the GAA gene and demonstrated that Hes-1, a basic
helix-loop-helix factor, binds to a C class E box within the element
and functions as a transcriptional repressor in HepG2 cells.
Hes-1 is a well studied downstream target gene in the Notch
signaling pathway. In this study, over-expression and depletion of
Notch-1 intracellular domain (NICD) strategies were used to investigate
whether expression of the GAA gene is under the control of
Notch-1/Hes-1 signaling. In co-transfection experiments, Hes-1,
up-regulated by over-expressed NICD, enhanced the repressive effect of
the DNA element with wild type Hes-1 binding sites but not with mutant
Hes-1 binding sites. Conversely, depletion of Notch-1 with
phosphorothioated antisense oligonucleotides, corresponding to the
fourth ankyrin repeat within NICD, led to reduced Hes-1. Constitutively
over-expressed Hes-1 and Notch-1 repressed GAA gene
expression. Therefore, our data establish that the human
GAA gene, encoding a lysosomal enzyme, is a downstream target of the Notch-1/Hes-1 signaling pathway.
