The phosphorylation of intact calmodulin and of fragments obtained by trypsin digestion was studied, using a protein kinase partially purified from bovine brain. Brain extracts were made in the presence of the detergent CHAPS (3-[3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate). The protein kinase catalyzed the incorporation of nearly 1 mol of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into calmodulin fragment 1-106. Incorporation was exclusively into serine 101. With fragment 78-148, the extent of phosphorylation was somewhat less and 32P appeared mainly in threonine residues. Fragment 1-90 was also a fairly good substrate, but the phosphorylation of intact calmodulin never exceeded 0.01 mol per mol. Little or no phosphorylation was seen with parvalbumin, the brain Ca2+-binding protein (CBP-18) and intestinal calcium-binding protein. The protein kinase had no requirement for cAMP or phospholipids. High levels of Mg2+ (60-70 mM) stimulated phosphorylation of the fragments 20-fold. Millimolar concentrations of Ca2+ were inhibitory. It is suggested that the calmodulin fragments were in a conformation more favorable for phosphorylation than intact soluble calmodulin.

The second messenger cAMP stimulates the expression of numerous genes via the protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of the cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) at Ser-133. Ser-133 phosphorylation, in turn, appears to induce target gene expression by promoting interaction between CREB and CBP, a 265-kDa nuclear phospho-CREB-binding protein. It is unclear, however, whether Ser-133 phosphorylation per se is sufficient for CREB-CBP complex formation and for target gene induction in vivo. Here we examine CREB activity in Jurkat T cells after stimulation of the T-cell receptor (TCR), an event that leads to calcium entry and diacylglycerol production. Triggering of the TCR stimulated Ser-133 phosphorylation of CREB with high stoichiometry, but TCR activation did not promote CREB-CBP complex formation or target gene induction unless suboptimal doses of cAMP agonist were provided as a costimulus. Our results demonstrate that, in addition to mediating Ser-133 phosphorylation of CREB, protein kinase A regulates additional proteins that are required for recruitment of the transcriptional apparatus to cAMP-responsive genes.

The 265K nuclear protein CBP was initially identified as a co-activator for the protein kinase A (PKA)-phosphorylated form of the transcription factor CREB. The domains in CBP that are involved in CREB binding and transcriptional activation are highly related to the adenoviral E1A-associated cellular protein p300 (refs 2, 3), and to two hypothetical proteins from Caenorhabditis elegans, R10E11.1 and K03H1.10 (refs 4 and 5, respectively), whose functions are unknown. Here, we show that CBP and p300 have similar binding affinity for the PKA-phosphorylated form of CREB, and that p300 can substitute for CBP in potentiating CREB-activated gene expression. We find that E1A binds to CBP through a domain conserved with p300 and represses the CREB-dependent co-activator functions of both CBP and p300. Our results indicate that the gene repression and cell immortalization functions associated with E1A involve the inactivation of a family of related proteins that normally participate in second-messenger-regulated gene expression.

The transcription factor CREB binds to a DNA element known as the cAMP-regulated enhancer (CRE). CREB is activated through phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA), but precisely how phosphorylation stimulates CREB function is unknown. One model is that phosphorylation may allow the recruitment of coactivators which then interact with basal transcription factors. We have previously identified a nuclear protein of M(r)265K, CBP, that binds specifically to the PKA-phosphorylated form of CREB. We have used fluorescence anisotropy measurements to define the equilibrium binding parameters of the phosphoCREB:CBP interaction and report here that CBP can activate transcription through a region in its carboxy terminus. The activation domain of CBP interacts with the basal transcription factor TFIIB through a domain that is conserved in the yeast coactivator ADA-1 (ref. 8). Consistent with its role as a coactivator, CBP augments the activity of phosphorylated CREB to activate transcription of cAMP-responsive genes.

Cyclic AMP-regulated gene expression frequently involves a DNA element known as the cAMP-regulated enhancer (CRE). Many transcription factors bind to this element, including the protein CREB, which is activated as a result of phosphorylation by protein kinase A. This modification stimulates interaction with one or more of the general transcription factors or, alternatively, allows recruitment of a co-activator. Here we report that CREB phosphorylated by protein kinase A binds specifically to a nuclear protein of M(r) 265K which we term CBP (for CREB-binding protein). Fusion of a heterologous DNA-binding domain to the amino terminus of CBP enables the chimaeric protein to function as a protein kinase A-regulated transcriptional activator. We propose that CBP may participate in cAMP-regulated gene expression by interacting with the activated phosphorylated form of CREB.

The CBP protein mediates PKA induced transcription by binding to the PKA phosphorylated activation domain of CREB. Here we show that CBP also stimulates the activity of both c-Jun and v-Jun in vivo. The CREB binding domain of CBP is sufficient to contact to c-Jun in vitro. When this domain of CBP is linked to the activation domain of VP16 and expressed in vivo it stimulates c-Jun dependent transcription. Deletion analysis of c-Jun indicate that the CBP binding site is within the N-terminal activation domain. Loss of binding to CBP in vitro correlates with severely reduced transactivation capacity in vivo. Mutation of Ser63/73 in c-Jun, or the corresponding position in v-Jun (Ser36/46) leads to reduced binding to CBP in vitro and abolishes augmentation of transcription in vivo. These data are consistent with a mechanism by which CBP acts as a co-activator protein for Jun dependent transcription by interacting with the Jun N-terminal activation domain.

The second messenger cAMP stimulates the expression of a number of target genes via the protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of CREB at Ser-133 (Gonzalez, G. A., and Montminy, M. R. (1989) Cell 59, 675-680). Ser-133 phosphorylation enhances CREB activity by promoting interaction with a 265-kDa CREB binding protein referred to as CBP (Arias, J., Alberts, A., Brindle, P., Claret, F., Smeal, T., Karin, M., Feramisco, J., and Montminy, M. (1994) Nature 370, 226-228; Chrivia, J. C., Kwok, R. P., Lamb, N., Hagiwara, M., Montminy, M. R., and Goodman, R. H. (1993) Nature 365, 855-859). The mechanism by which CBP in turn mediates induction of cAMP-responsive genes is unknown but is thought to involve recruitment of basal transcription factors to the promoter. Here we demonstrate that CBP associates specifically with RNA polymerase II in HeLa nuclear extracts. This association in turn permits RNA polymerase II to be recruited to CREB in a phospho-(Ser-133)-dependent manner. As anti-CBP antiserum, which inhibits recruitment of CBP and RNA polymerase II to phospho-(Ser-133) CREB, attenuates transcriptional induction by protein kinase A in vitro, our results demonstrate that the CBP-RNA polymerase II complex is critical for expression of cAMP-responsive genes.

CBP (CREB-binding protein) is a transcriptional coactivator of CREB (cAMP response element-binding) protein, which is directly phosphorylated by PKA (cAMP-dependent protein kinase A). CBP interacts with the activated phosphorylated form of CREB but not with the nonphosphorylated form. We report here that CBP is also a coactivator of the c-myb proto-oncogene product (c-Myb), which is a sequence-specific transcriptional activator. CBP directly binds to the region containing the transcriptional activation domain of c-Myb in a phosphorylation-independent manner in vitro. The domain of CBP that touches c-Myb is also required for binding to CREB. A c-Myb/CBP complex in vivo was demonstrated by a yeast two-hybrid assay. CBP stimulates the c-Myb-dependent transcriptional activation. Conversely, the expression of antisense RNA of CBP represses c-Myb-induced transcriptional activation. In addition, adenovirus EIA, which binds to CBP, inhibits c-Myb-induced transcriptional activation. Our data thus identify CBP as a coactivator of c-Myb. These results suggest that CBP functions as a coactivator for more transcriptional activators than were thought previously.

The c-fos proto-oncogene is activated by a plethora of signals via the transcription factors Sap-1a and CREB. Recently, the coactivator CBP has been demonstrated to act in concert with CREB when CREB is phosphorylated by protein kinase A. We show that CBP also binds directly to Sap-1a. While phosphorylation of Sap-1a by mitogen-activated protein kinases is not necessary for CBP/Sap-1a interaction, functional cooperation between these two proteins requires Sap-1a to become phosphorylated. CBP-antagonists impair Sap-1a-mediated transactivation. Similarly, the CBP antagonist E1A suppresses c-fos upregulation by phosphorylated CREB, indicating that CBP is a central component of c-fos regulation. Furthermore, CBP is phosphorylated by protein kinase A in vitro and the transactivation potential of the carboxy-terminal region of CBP is enhanced in the presence of active protein kinase A in vivo. Thus, CBP, in addition to CREB, is a target for cAMP-dependent signaling. However, combined phosphorylation of CBP by protein kinase A and mitogen-activated protein kinases appears to be non-cooperative, suggesting that CBP serves the function of a dampening integrator of two different signaling pathways.

Activating transcription factor 1 (ATF1) and the cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) are members of the CREB/ATF family implicated in cAMP- and calcium-induced transcriptional activation. Although ATF1 and CREB share extensive homology, the function of ATF1 is poorly understood. Its phosphorylation state and activation by Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) II were therefore examined. Phosphopeptide mapping analysis and Western blotting studies demonstrated that in vitro, CaMK II phosphorylates only Ser63 (corresponding to Ser133 of CREB), which is essential for the activation, and not Ser72 (corresponding to Ser142 of CREB), which is a negative regulation site. Both ATF1 and CREB bound CBP in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. As expected from these in vitro studies, transient transfection studies revealed that ATF1 is activated by CaMK II. Our findings suggest that CaMK II mediates transactivation of cAMP responsive genes via ATF1.
