Daxx has been shown to function as an apoptosis regulator and transcriptional repressor via its interaction with various cytoplasmic and nuclear proteins. Here, we showed that Daxx interacts with Smad4 and represses its transcriptional activity via the C-terminal domain of Daxx. In vitro and in vivo interaction studies indicated that the binding of Smad4 to Daxx depends on Smad4 sumoylation. Substitution of Smad4 SUMO conjugation residue lysine 159, but not 113, to arginine not only disrupted Smad4-Daxx interaction but also relieved Daxx-elicited repression of Smad4 transcriptional activity. Furthermore, chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses revealed the recruitment of Daxx to an endogenous, Smad4-targeted promoter in a Lys159 sumoylation-dependent manner. Finally, down-regulation of Daxx expression by RNA interference enhanced transforming growth factor
-induced transcription of reporter and endogenous genes through a Smad4-dependent, but not K159R-Smad4-dependent, manner. Together, these results indicate that Daxx suppresses Smad4-mediated transcriptional activity by direct interaction with the sumoylated Smad4 and identify a novel role of Daxx in regulating transforming growth factor
signaling.
