p53 transactivates the expression of a variety of genes by binding to specific DNA sequences within the promoter. We have investigated the ability of wild-type p53 and a non-DNA binding p53 mutant to activate the hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) promoter using chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter constructs. We also used deletion sequences of the HGF/SF promoter to identify which regions, if any, were responsible for p53 binding. Our results show that wild-type but not mutant p53 activates the HGF/SF promoter when using -3000 and -755 bp upstream of the HGF/SF gene. This activation is lost when promoter sequences covering -365 and -239 bp are used. Analysis of the DNA sequence between -365 and -755 bp shows one putative p53 half-site with 80% homology to the consensus sequence and another half-site 3 bases downstream of this with 100% homology to the consensus sequence. In contrast to previously identified p53 binding DNA sequences, the downstream half-site is inverted. We propose that the HGF/SF promoter can be activated by wild-type p53 in vivo and that this could be as a result of a novel form of sequence-specific DNA binding.  相似文献
