Abstract

Phosphatidylcholine is the major lipid component in mammalian membranes. Phosphatidylcholine synthesis increases in C3H10T1/2 fibroblasts during the G(1) and S phases of the cell cycle. Previous studies demonstrated that the mRNA encoding CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase alpha (CTalpha) increases during S phase (Golfman, L. S., Bakovic, M., and Vance, D. E. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 43688-43692) and that this activation is driven by increased binding of Sp1 to the CTalpha promoter (Banchio, C., Schang, L. M., and Vance, D. E. (2003) J. Biol. Chem. 278, 32457-32464). We now demonstrate that cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) phosphorylation of Sp1 activates CTalpha transcription during S phase. Sp1 binds in a phosphorylated state to the CTalpha promoter. Sp1 binding is enhanced by association with cyclin A/E and CDK2, both in vivo and in vitro. In cells that overexpress Sp1, co-expression of cyclin A and CDK2 induces a high and constant level of CTalpha expression, whereas reduction in the expression of cyclin A, cyclin E, and CDK2 eliminates the induction of CTalpha expression in S phase. Furthermore, CTalpha expression is decreased in cells overexpressing a dominant-negative form of CDK2 and in cells treated with the CDK...Continue Reading
