Ku70, a regulatory component of the DNA-dependent protein kinase, was identified by a yeast two-hybrid screen of a B lymphocyte cDNA library as a partner of p40phox, a regulatory component of the O2--producing NADPH oxidase. Truncated constructs of p40phox and Ku70 were used to map the interacting sites. The 186 C-terminal amino acids (aa) of Ku70 were found to interact with two distinct regions of p40phox, the central core region (aa 50-260) and the C-terminal extremity (aa 260-339). In complementary experiments, it was observed that Ku70 binds to immobilized recombinant p40phox fusion protein and that p40phox and Ku70 from a B lymphocyte cell extract comigrate in successive chromatographies on Q Separose, Superose 12 and hydroxylapatite columns. Moreover, we report that Ku70 and p40phox colocalize in B lymphocytes and in transfected Cos-7 cells. We also show that the two NADPH oxidase activating factors, p47phox and p67phox are substrates for DNA-PK in vitro and that they are present together with p40phox in the nucleus of B cells. These results may help solve the paradox that the phox protein triad, p40phox, p47phox and p67phox, is expressed equally in B lymphocytes and neutrophils, whereas the redox component of the NADPH oxidase, a flavocytochrome b, which is well expressed in neutrophils, is barely detectable in B lymphocytes.
