Transcriptional regulation of two serum-induced RNAs in mouse fibroblasts: equivalence of one species to B2 repetitive elements.

D R Edwards, C L Parfett and D T Denhardt

ABSTRACT

We obtained eight cDNA clones that define five genes whose expression (appearance of transcripts in the cytoplasm) is enhanced when quiescent mouse fibroblasts are stimulated with serum to divide. Two of these clones (designated 49C8 and 16C8) correspond to RNA species that are present in the cytoplasm of quiescent cells at very low levels. After serum stimulation, the level of 16C8 mRNA rose more rapidly than that of 49C8 RNA, reaching a maximum around 6 to 12 h. The data suggest that 49C8 and 16C8 RNAs are induced as a result of independent stimuli. Either fibroblast growth factor or 12-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate alone could induce 16C8 expression almost as effectively as serum; in contrast, 49C8 was not efficiently induced by epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, insulin, or 12-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate. Inhibitors of transcription and translation diminished the induction of 16C8, while 49C8 expression was sensitive to actinomycin D but not cycloheximide or 5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosylbenzimidazole. In vitro transcription experiments with isolated nuclei revealed a peak in transcriptional activity of the 16C8 gene at around 3 h after serum stimulation. Sequence analysis of the 49C8 cDNA clone showed greater than 90% homology of a large portion to a consensus rodent B2 repetitive element.
