Involvement of mi-transcription factor in expression of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor in cultured mast cells of mice

The microphthalmia (mi) locus encodes a member of the basic-helix-loop-helix-leucine zipper (bHLH-Zip) protein family of transcription factors (MITF). We have reported that expression of several genes was impaired in cultured mast cells (CMCs) of mi/mi mice due to a defective transactivation ability...

description The microphthalmia (mi) locus encodes a member of the basic-helix-loop-helix-leucine zipper (bHLH-Zip) protein family of transcription factors (MITF). We have reported that expression of several genes was impaired in cultured mast cells (CMCs) of mi/mi mice due to a defective transactivation ability of mutant MITF (mi-MITF). We also found that mi/mi CMCs did not express a receptor (MC1R) for alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. The overexpression of the wild-type (+/+) MITF but not mi-MITF normalized the expression of the MC1R in mi/mi CMCs, indicating the involvement of +-MITF in the MC1R gene expression. Next, we analyzed the promoter region of the MC1R gene by the transient cotransfection assay. The luciferase construct under the control of the MC1R promoter and the cDNA-encoding +-MITF or mi-MITF were cotransfected into NIH/3T3 fibroblasts. The cotransfection of +-MITF but not mi-MITF increased the luciferase activity. There were five CANNTG motifs recognized by bHLH-Zip-type transcription factors in the cloned promoter region. We found +-MITF bound two of five CANNTG motifs, and both motifs were essential for the transactivation of the MC1R gene by +-MITF. These results indicated that +-MITF directly transactivated the MC1R gene through these two motifs.
