Sterol regulatory element binding
protein-1c (SREBP-1c) is a key hepatic transcription factor
involved in lipogenic gene expression. In an effort to understand the
role SREBP-1c plays in lipogenic gene transcription, we have examined
the functional interaction between SREBP-1c, nuclear factor Y,
3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) receptors, and
co-activators using the S14 gene promoter as a model. T3,
glucose, and insulin rapidly induce S14 gene transcription in rat liver
and in primary hepatocytes. Linker scanning analyses of the S14
promoter showed that an SRE at

SREBP-1c and a Y-box at
104/
99 bp binding NF-Y are
indispensable for both T3- and SREBP-1c-mediated induction of S14 promoter activity in rat primary hepatocytes.
T3 and glucose/insulin induce S14 gene transcription
through separate enhancers. Enhancer substitution studies reveal a
preferential interaction between SREBP-1c·NF-Y and the T3
regulatory region (
2.8/
2.5 kb) binding thyroid hormone
receptor/RXR heterodimers. Elevating hepatocellular levels of specific
co-activators (CBP, p/CAF, or GCN5) induced S14 promoter activity
2-3-fold, while SREBP-1c induced promoter activity 10-fold. The
combination of these treatments induced S14 promoter activity
(20-35-fold). However, this additive effect was lost when the
T3 regulatory region was deleted. Based on these results,
we suggest that the SREBP-1c·NF-Y complex facilitates the
interaction between co-activators that are recruited to distal hormone-regulated enhancers and the general transcription machinery that binds the S14 proximal promoter.
