Expression of the Cyp 2d-9 (steroid 16 alpha-hydroxylase) gene in mouse liver is male specific in such Mus musculus domesticus strains as FVB/N, whereas the corresponding P450 genes in the wild mouse species Mus spretus are not sex specific in their expression. These parental differences in the gene expressions were independently inherited in F1 offspring from crosses of FVB/N and M. spretus. A 5' flanking sequence (-110CTC CTCCCTATTCCGGGCC-92) was defined as a regulatory element (named SDI-A1) for the domestic Cyp 2d-9 promoter. The nucleotide which corresponds to T at position -99 within SDI-A1 was found to be substituted with C in the wild mouse P450 genes. The placing of C at position -99 abolished the transcriptional activity of SDI-A1 in HepG2 cells as well as the binding of SDI-A1 to a nuclear factor. This factor (designated NF2d9) was purified from mouse nuclear extracts, and its cDNA cloned. The purified NF2d9 bound to SDI-A1 but not to the mutated SDI-A1 with C at position -99. The deduced amino acid sequence revealed that NF2d9 is 72 and 94% identical to mouse CP2 and human LBP-1a, respectively. NF2d9 thus belongs to the CP2 family and is the mouse homolog of human LBP-1a, which modulates human immunodeficiency virus type 1 transcription. Anti-NF2d9, which was raised against the bacterially expressed protein, supershifted the SDI-A1 complex with the liver nuclear extract. Both the bacterially expressed and in vitro- translated NF2d9 inhibited SDI-A1 complex formation, although they did not bind to SDI-A1 directly. The results, therefore, indicate that the domestic Cyp 2d-9 gene can be regulated through a specific association of NF2d9 with SDI-A1.
