Abstract

We have analysed the enhancer activity and the interleukin 1 (IL1) responsiveness of individual motifs of the SV40 enhancer in an immature rodent T cell line, PC60. Transient transfection assays showed that tetramers of GT-I plus GT-IIC motifs, the TC-II or the P motif have significant enhancer activity in PC60, while neither Octamer nor SphI+II motifs have a detectable effect on promoter strength. Two motifs, TC-II and P, strongly respond to stimulation by IL1. DNase I and methylation protection experiments with nuclear extracts show specific footprints in the TC-II region of the SV40 enhancer. Exposure of PC60 cells to IL1 increases their intensity. The TC-II sequence forms several complexes detected in band shift assays. The molecules involved all have similar sequence specificity as NF-kappa B. Surprisingly, band shifts with extracts from control or IL1 treated cells differ only slightly. However, if GTP is added to the binding reactions the intensity of bands formed by extracts from control cells is strongly reduced, whereas extracts from IL1 treated cells form a single retarded complex that co-migrates with NF-kappa B from a pre-B cell line. The results suggest that in PC60 IL1 induces NF-kappa B activity by activating molecules that are already in the nucleus.
