Abstract

We have previously found that the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induces specific transcription of tRNA and 5S RNA genes in Drosophila Schneider S-2 cells (M. Garber, S. Panchanathan, R. F. Fan, and D. L. Johnson, J. Biol. Chem. 266:20598-20601, 1991). Having derived cellular extracts from TPA-treated cells, that are capable of reproducing this stimulation in vitro, we have examined the mechanism for this regulatory event. Using conditions that limit reinitiation and produce single rounds of transcription from active gene complexes, we find that the number of functional transcription complexes is increased in extracts prepared from TPA-induced cells. We have analyzed the activities of the transcription factors TFIIIB and TFIIIC derived from extracts prepared from TPA-induced and noninduced cells. Examination of the relative activities of TFIIIC showed that both its ability to reconstitute transcription with TFIIIB and RNA polymerase III and its ability to stably bind to the DNA template are unchanged. However, the activity of TFIIIB derived from the TPA-induced cells is substantially increased compared with that derived from the noninduced cells. The differences in TFIIIB activity account for the differences in the overall transcriptional activities observed in the unfractionated extracts. Western blot analysis of the TATA-binding protein subunit of TFIIIB revealed that there is an increase in the amount of this polypeptide present in the induced cell extracts and TFIIIB fraction. Together, these results indicate that the TPA response in Drosophila cells stimulates specific transcription of RNA polymerase III genes by increasing the activity of the limiting transcription component, TFIIIB, and thereby increasing the number of functional transcription complexes.
