Loss of glycogen synthase kinase 3ß (GSK-3ß) in mice results in embryonic lethality via hepatocyte apoptosis. Consistent with this result, cells from these mice have diminished nuclear factor {kappa}B (NF-{kappa}B) activity, implying a functional role for GSK-3ß in regulating NF-{kappa}B. Here, we have explored mechanisms by which GSK-3ß may control NF-{kappa}B function. We show that cytokine-induced I{kappa}B kinase activity and subsequent phosphorylation of I{kappa}B{alpha}, p105, and p65 are not affected by the absence of GSK-3ß activity. Furthermore, nuclear accumulation of p65 following tumor necrosis factor treatment is unaffected by the loss of GSK-3ß. However, NF-{kappa}B DNA binding activity is reduced in GSK-3ß null cells and in cells treated with a pharmacological inhibitor of GSK-3. Expression of certain NF-{kappa}B-regulated genes, such as I{kappa}B{alpha} and macrophage inflammatory protein 2, is minimally affected by the absence of GSK-3ß. Conversely, we have identified a subset of NF-{kappa}B-regulated genes, including those for interleukin-6 and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, that require GSK-3ß for efficient expression. We show that efficient localization of p65 to the promoter regions of the interleukin-6 and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 genes following tumor necrosis factor alpha treatment requires GSK-3ß. Therefore, GSK-3ß has profound effects on transcription in a gene-specific manner through a mechanism involving control of promoter-specific recruitment of NF-{kappa}B.
