Novel IkappaB alpha proteolytic pathway in WEHI231 immature B cells

The Rel/NF-kappaB family of transcription factors is sequestered in the cytoplasm of most mammalian cells by inhibitor proteins belonging to the IkappaB family. Degradation of IkappaB by a phosphorylation- dependent ubiquitin-proteasome (inducible) pathway is believed to allow nuclear transport of active Rel/NF-kappaB dimers. Rel/NF-kappaB (a p50- c-Rel dimer) is constitutively nuclear in murine B cells, such as WEHI231 cells. In these cells, p50, c-Rel, and IkappaB alpha are synthesized at high levels but only IkappaB alpha is rapidly degraded. We have examined the mechanism of IkappaB alpha degradation and its relation to constitutive p50-c-Rel activation. We demonstrate that all IkappaB alpha is found complexed with c-Rel protein in the cytoplasm. Additionally, rapid IkappaB alpha proteolysis is independent of but coexistent with the inducible pathway and can be inhibited by calcium chelators and some calpain inhibitors. Conditions that prevent degradation of IkappaB alpha also inhibit nuclear p50-c-Rel activity. Furthermore, the half-life of nuclear c-Rel is much shorter than that of the cytoplasmic form, underscoring the necessity for its continuous nuclear transport to maintain constitutive p50-c-Rel activity. We observed that IkappaB beta, another NF-kappaB inhibitor, is also complexed with c-Rel but slowly degraded by a proteasome-dependent process in WEHI231 cells. In addition, IkappaB beta is basally phosphorylated and cytoplasmic. We thus suggest that calcium-dependent IkappaB alpha proteolysis maintains nuclear transport of a p50-c-Rel heterodimer which in turn activates the synthesis of IkappaB alpha, p50, and c-Rel to sustain this dynamic process in WEHI231 B cells.
