We investigated mechanisms of the p73
-mediated repression of the platelet-derived growth factor ß-receptor (PDGFRB) promoter caused by its interaction with NF-Y. Treatment of cells with the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, Trichostatin A, increases PDGFRB promoter activity through the CCAAT motif and counteracts the repression caused by p73
. Activation of the PDGFRB promoter by the co-activator p300 also occurs through the CCAAT motif. Expression of p73
counteracts both p300- and P/CAF-mediated activation of the PDGFRB promoter, and expression of p300 or P/CAF attenuates the p73
-mediated repression of the promoter activity. In concordance, p73
decreases the p300-mediated acetylation of NF-YC, p300 competes with p73
for binding NF-YB, and P/CAF competes with p73
for binding NF-YB and NF-YC. Furthermore, p73
, but not the oncogenic
Np73
, binds directly to HDAC1. We performed chromatin immunoprecipitation with antibodies against p73,
Np73, NFYB, p300 and HDAC1 at different periods after serum stimulation in serum-starved NIH3T3 cells. A marked decrease of
Np73, NF-YB and p300 was detected 6 hours after serum stimulation when the expression of PDGFRB decreased. Conversely, HDAC1 was found bound at its maximum and the anti-p73 detecting both TAp73 and
Np73 was found at all time points, indicating that p73, but not
Np73, remains bound at this time. Double immunofluorescence staining of TAp73 and HDAC1 revealed that both of these molecules exist in the nucleus at this time point, supporting the presence of endogenous interaction. These results suggest that p73 and
Np73 behave as physiological regulators for the transcription of the PDGFRB promoter.
