We have characterized a newly identified gene from Dictyostelium discoideum, DdTBP alpha, that encodes a member of the family of eukaryotic proteins. These proteins contain a conserved ATPase domain, include subunits of the 26S protease subunit, and are homologous to the mammalian human immunodeficiency virus Tat-binding protein TBP1. While information indicates that some family members are involved in the regulation of transcription in mammalian and yeast cells during growth, these proteins are also involved in other cellular functions, and nothing is known about their possible function in multicellular development. The Dictyostelium DdTBP alpha gene is developmentally regulated, with its expression at the highest levels occurring during growth and early development. The gene is present in two copies in the genome. Disruption of one copy by homologous recombination leads to aberrant morphogenesis, which lasts from the formation of the first finger until the onset of culmination. The gene appears to be essential for growth since we were unable to obtain a complete null phenotype and since expression of an inducible antisense construct in the partial null background resulted in cell death. Expression of the antisense construct during development accentuated the partial null phenotype and also resulted in very abnormal fruiting bodies. Overexpression of DdTBP alpha from its own promoter leads to very large multinucleated vegetative cells when the cells are grown in suspension culture. When the cells are plated onto petri dishes in growth medium, they rapidly split into multiple cells containing one to two nuclei, in a manner similar to that of wild-type cells. Overexpressing cells are significantly delayed in forming a multicellular aggregate, but development proceeds normally once the first finger stage is reached. The results indicate that DdTBP alpha plays an important role in regulating both growth and morphogenesis in D. discoideum.

We have cloned a porcine gene, designated TBP1O, that belongs to the Tat-binding protein/26S protease subunit family. The genomic structure of the porcine TBP1O gene was analyzed after isolation of three overlapping genomic phage lambda clones. The TBP10 gene harbors 12 exons spanning 4.5 kb of chromosomal DNA. The TBP1O gene was assigned to Chromosome (Chr) 12 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on metaphase chromosomes. The chromosomal location was confirmed by PCR analysis of a porcine-rodent hybrid cell panel. The TBP1O protein is encoded by a 1221 nucleotide cDNA and has a molecular mass of 45.6 kDa. The predicted amino acid sequence has highest similarity to the human and bovine p45 subunit of the 26S protease and the human transcription factor TRIP1. Further similarities were detected to the slime mold protein DdTBP1O and the Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein SUG1. Like DdTBP1O and other members of the protein family, the porcine TBP1O harbors a leucine zipper motif in the N-terminal region and a domain characteristics of ATP-dependent proteases in the C-terminal region.

Cellular localization of Tat-binding protein-1 (TBP-1) mRNA is studied in the rat central nervous system (CNS) by in situ hybridization histochemistry. TBP-1 is one of the molecules which interact with HIV Tat and influence HIV amplification. Also, TBP-1 is recognized as a component of a 19S regulatory subunit of the 26S proteasome which degrades ubiquitinated proteins and is essential for a remarkably wide range of cellular processes, including vesicle fusion, proteolysis, peroxisomal and mitochondrial biogenesis and transcription. A detectable amount of TBP-1 mRNA exists widely in neurons but with high heterogeneity in the CNS. Many motor neurons, e.g. those in the oculomotor nucleus, trochlear nucleus, motor trigeminal nucleus, facial nucleus and hypoglossal nucleus, are TBP-1 mRNA positive. In addition, neurons in the sensory nuclei, such as the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus and the nucleus ambiguus, and many cortical neurons are TBP-1 mRNA positive. These results suggest that TBP-1 is one of the basic molecules in the brain and that the expression of TBP-1 mRNA is differentially regulated at the cellular level, probably reflecting the rate of protein turnover as a whole.

The HBV X protein (HBx) is implicated in infection and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. HBx has a pleiotropic effect on cells, suggesting multiple targets in the virus-host cell interaction. We employed the cytoplasmic-based two-hybrid screen and identified the HIV Tat-binding protein 1 (Tbp1) as a novel HBx interacting protein. Tbp1 interacts in vivo with HBx both in yeast and in animal cells. This interaction maps to the functionally important ATP-binding motif of Tbp1. Furthermore, HBx and Tbp1 interaction is functionally significant and regulates HBV transcription. Tbp1 homologues, such as Sug1, are known members of the proteasome 19S regulatory cap particle and have also been implicated in transcription coactivation. Remarkably, Tbp1 and Sug1 interact with multiple viral effector proteins including HIV Tat, SV40 large T antigen, and adenovirus E1A, establishing these proteins as important targets of the viral oncogenes.

von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene inactivation occurs in von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease. The protein pVHL functions in a multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets the hypoxia-inducible transcription factor Hif1 alpha for proteasomal degradation during normoxia. We establish that pVHL binds to Tat-binding protein-1 (TBP-1), a component of the 19S regulatory complex of the proteasome. TBP-1 associates with the beta-domain of pVHL and complexes with pVHL and Hif1 alpha in vivo. Overexpression of TBP-1 promotes degradation of Hif1 alpha in a pVHL-dependent manner that requires the ATPase domain of TBP-1. Blockade of TBP-1 expression by small interfering RNA (siRNA) causes prolonged degradation kinetics of Hif1 alpha. Several distinct mutations in exon 2 of VHL disrupt binding of pVHL to TBP-1. A pVHL mutant containing a P154L substitution coimmunoprecipitates with Hif1 alpha, but not TBP-1, and does not promote degradation of Hif1 alpha. Thus, the ability of pVHL to degrade Hif1 alpha depends in part on its interaction with TBP-1 and suggests a new mechanism for Hif1 alpha stabilization in some pVHL-deficient tumors.

The p14ARF tumor suppressor is a key regulator of cellular proliferation, frequently inactivated in human cancer, whose mode of action is currently not completely understood. We report here that the so-called human immunodeficiency virus Tat-binding protein-1 (TBP-1), a component of the 19 S regulatory subunit of the proteasome 26 S, also involved in transcriptional regulation and with a supposed role in the control of cell proliferation, specifically interacts with ARF, both in yeast and mammalian cells. We present evidence that the overexpression of TBP-1 in various cell lines results in a sharp increase of both transfected and endogenous ARF protein levels. Moreover, this effect depends on the binding between the two proteins and, at least in part, is exerted at the post-translational level. We also show that the ARF increase following TBP-1 overexpression results in an increase in p53 protein levels and activity. Finally, our data underline a clear involvement of TBP-1 in the control of cell proliferation.

The 26S proteasome, which degrades ubiquitinated proteins, appears to contribute to the cyclical loading of androgen receptor (AR) to androgen response elements of target gene promoters; however, the mechanism whereby the 26S proteasome modulates AR recruitment remains unknown. Using yeast two-hybrid screening, we previously identified Tat-binding protein-1 (TBP-1), an adenosine triphosphatase of 19S regulatory particles of the 26S proteasome, as a transcriptional coactivator of thyroid hormone receptor. Independently, TBP-1-interacting protein (TBPIP) was also identified as a coactivator of several nuclear receptors, including AR. Here, we investigated whether TBP-1 could interact with and modulate transcriptional activation by AR cooperatively with TBPIP. TBP-1 mRNA was ubiquitously expressed in human tissues, including the testis and prostate, as well as in LNCaP cells. TBP-1 directly bound TBPIP through the amino-terminal domain possessing the leucine zipper structure. AR is physically associated with TBP-1 and TBPIP in vitro and in LNCaP cells. TBP-1 similarly and additively augmented AR-mediated transcription upon coexpression with TBPIP, and the ATPase domain, as well as leucine zipper structure in TBP-1, was essential for transcriptional enhancement. Overexpression of TBP-1 did not alter AR protein and mRNA levels. In the chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, TBP-1 was transiently recruited to the proximal androgen response element of the prostate-specific antigen gene promoter in a ligand-dependent manner in LNCaP cells. These findings suggest that a component of 19S regulatory particles directly binds AR and might participate in AR-mediated transcriptional activation in cooperation with TBPIP.

19S regulatory particles (19SRP) of 26S proteasome participate in multiple steps of gene transcription in yeast. We previously showed that Tat-binding protein-1 (TBP-1), an ATPase of 19SRP, interacts with thyroid hormone receptor (TR) and enhances TR-mediated transcription synergistically with steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1). To further elucidate the roles of ATPases and a non-ATPase component of 19SRP in gene regulation by TR, we investigated whether knockdown (KO) of TBP-1, TRIP1 or Rpn10 using small interfering RNA affects TR-mediated transactivation in HeLa cells. KO of individual subunits attenuated TR-mediated transactivation through the thyroid hormone response element (TRE) in the absence or presence of cotransfected SRC-1 without altering TR and SRC-1 protein levels. KO of TBP-1 disrupted ligand-induced loading of TR, SRC-1, and RNA polymerase II in chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. Collectively, both ATPase and non-ATPase components of 19SRP play critical roles in TR-mediated transactivation by coordinating the proper loading of liganded TR to TRE.

Class II transactivator (CIITA) is the master regulator of the major histocompatibility class II transcription complex (MHC-II) and is critical for initiation of adaptive immune responses. We have previously demonstrated that the 19S proteasome ATPase Sug1 plays a significant role in regulating CIITA activity and MHC-II expression. We now show that an additional component of the 19S complex, the 19S ATPase S6a (S6'/Tat-binding protein 1), is crucial for regulating cytokine-inducible transcription of CIITA. Lack of S6a negatively impacts CIITA activity and CIITA expression. Decreased expression of S6a significantly diminishes the recruitment of transcription factors to the CIITA interferon-gamma-inducible promoter [CIITA promoter IV (pIV)] and significantly decreases CIITApIV histone H3 and histone H4 acetylation, with a preferential loss of acetylation at H3 lysine 18 and H4 lysine 8. In addition, we provide evidence for the involvement of the 19S AAA (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activity) ATPase hexamer as the 19S ATPase S6b binds CIITApIV in an S6a-dependent fashion and has effects similar to S6a on CIITApIV histone acetylation. These analyses demonstrate the importance of 19S ATPases in the assembly of CIITApIV transcription machinery and provide additional insight into the regulatory mechanisms of the 19S proteasome in mammalian transcription.
