Abstract:

SMADs are transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) receptor substrates and mediators of TGF-beta transcriptional responses. Here we provide evidence that the coactivators p300 and CBP interact with Smads 1 through 4. The biological relevance of this interaction is shown in vivo by overexpression of the adenovirus E1A protein and mutant forms of E1A that lack p300-binding sites. Wild-type E1A, but not the mutants, inhibits SMAD-dependent transcriptional responses to TGF-beta. E1A also inhibits the intrinsic transactivating function of the Smad4 MH2 domain. In addition, overexpression of p300 enhances SMAD-dependent transactivation. Our results suggest a role for p300/CBP in SMAD-mediated transcriptional activation and provide an explanation for the observed ability of E1A to interfere with TGF-beta action.
