Abstract

The mechanisms by which HMG-I proteins regulate cell growth are unknown, and their effects on gene expression have only been partially elucidated. We explored the potential interaction between HMG-I proteins and serum-response factor (SRF), a member of the MADS-box family of transcription factors. In cotransfection experiments, HMG-I(Y) potentiated SRF-dependent activation (by more than 5-fold) of two distinct SRF-responsive promoters, c-fos and the smooth muscle-specific gene SM22alpha. This effect was also observed with a heterologous promoter containing multiple copies of the CC(A/T)6GG (CArG) box. HMG-I proteins bound specifically to the CArG boxes of c-fos and SM22alpha in gel mobility shift analysis and enhanced binding of SRF to these CArG boxes. By chelating peptide-immobilized metal affinity chromatography, we mapped the domain of HMG-I(Y) that interacts with SRF to amino acids 50-81, a region that does not bind specifically to DNA in electrophoretic mobility shift assays even though it includes the third AT-hook DNA-binding domain. Surprisingly, HMG-I(Y) mutants that failed to bind DNA still enhanced SRF binding to DNA and SRF-dependent transcription. In contrast, deletion of the HMG-I(Y) 50-81 domain that bound SRF p...Continue Reading
