摘要

The retroviral oncogene v-myb encodes a transcription factor (v-Myb) which activates the myelomonocyte-specific mim-1 gene, a natural myb target gene, by cooperating with members of the C/EBP transcription factor family. The finding that v-Myb, together with C/EBP, is sufficient to activate the mim-1 gene in heterologous cell types has implicated Myb and C/EBP as a bipartite molecular switch, which regulates the expression of myelomonocyte-specific genes. To understand the relationship between v-Myb and C/EBP in more detail, we have examined the molecular basis of the activation of the mim-1 promoter by v-Myb and C/EBPbeta, a member of the C/EBP transcription factor family highly expressed in myelomonocytic cells. We have identified a composite Myb and C/EBP response element which mediates synergistic activation of the mim-1 promoter by both factors and consists of closely spaced Myb- and C/EBP-binding sites. In vitro and in vivo protein-binding studies indicate that v-Myb and C/EBPbeta interact with each other via their DNA-binding domains. We show that this interaction is essential for the synergistic activation of the mim-1 promoter by v-Myb and C/EBPbeta. Our work therefore identifies C/EBPbeta as an interaction partner of v-Myb involved in myelomonocyte gene expression.
