Although polyglutamine has been identified in diverse proteins, it is present predominantly in transcription factors. We observed that oncogene-immortalized mouse macrophages express several genes that contain a CAG repeat motif. Therefore, we attempted to clone a novel gene that contains a CAG repeat and is associated with cytokine activation of macrophages. Screening of a mouse macrophage cDNA library with a probe comprising 12 consecutive CAG triplets identified at least one unique clone. The cDNA encodes a protein (named GRP-1 or glutamine repeat protein-1) with 171 amino acids, a calculated molecular mass of 21.6 kDa, and a predicted pI of 10.67. Greater than two-thirds of GRP-1 are only two amino acids, namely glutamine (50%) and histidine (18%). There are four polyglutamine motifs interspersed with histidine-rich regions. There is also a putative nuclear localization signal flanked by sites for possible serine phosphorylation. GRP-1 mRNA was expressed constitutively in some macrophage cell lines and B and T cell lines. Interferon-gamma or lipopolysaccharide augmented GRP-1 mRNA expression in the mouse macrophage cell line ANA-1. Western blot analyses using an antipeptide serum revealed that GRP-1 was localized in the nucleus of ANA-1 macrophages and transfected 3T3 fibroblasts. Overexpression of GRP-1 decreased Sp1-driven chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene expression in transient cotransfection experiments. Because polyglutamine motifs can cause protein oligomerization and can function as transcriptional activation domains, we suggest that GRP-1 may be a transcription factor associated with interferon-gamma- or lipopolysaccharide-induced activation of macrophages."xsd:string |
