Microarray analysis was performed for control and Lrh-1LKO mice treated with vehicle or 1 mg/kg tunicamycin for 24 hr (n = 3). Genes were screened for those induced at least 1.5 fold by TM in control mice with significantly different induction in Lrh-1LKO mice by t-test (p<0.05). This list was filtered for those with differential expression between genotypes with TM treatment by t-test (p<0.05). Previously published genome-wide ATF2 and LRH-1 binding datasets were analyzed to identify genes with ATF2 or LRH-1 binding sites −500 to +275 bp from the TSS. Genes in our set were compared with these sets and genes that contain ATF2 or LRH-1 binding sites meeting the above criteria are marked.
No binding site for ENCODE data set but a known ATF2 direct target (Hondares et al., 2011).
Enrichment of known transcription factor binding sites in our gene set (Table 1) of differentially regulated genes by ER stress between control and Lrh-1LKO mice
Transcription factor name: | Known phosphorylation by PLK3: | Overlap of target genes with our gene set (Table 1): | Dataset used for analysis: |
---|---|---|---|
ATF2 | T71 (Wang et al., 2011b) | 3.83E-08 | ATF2 binding in G12878 cells (ENCODE EH002306) |
Lrh-1 | none | 1.40E-04 | Lrh-1 binding in mouse liver (Chong et al., 2012) |
p53 | S20 (Xie et al., 2001) | 1.37E-04 | p53 binding in U2OS cells treated with Nutlin-3 (Menendez et al., 2013), which results in S20 phosphorylation (Valentine et al., 2011) |
c-Jun | S63 and S73 (Wang et al., 2011a) | 2.95E-02 | c-Jun binding in CH12 cells (ENCODE EM001943), in which S63 may be constitutively phosphorylated like other B-lymphoma lines (Gururajan et al., 2005) |
NRF2 | None | NS | NRF2 binding in lymphoid cell lines treated with sulforaphane (Chorley et al., 2012) |
Transcription factors known to be phosphorylated by PLK3 (ATF2, p53, and c-Jun) are summarized here, along with NRF2 to represent the oxidative stress response and LRH-1. Overlap of known transcription factor binding sites −500 to +b250 bp of the TSS for genes in Table 1 was calculated, and significance was determined using hypergeometric distribution tests.
