Abstract
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II genes encode a series of heterodimeric cell surface glycoproteins that bind peptide antigen, The MHC class II/peptide complex is bound by the T-cell receptorof CD4(+) T cells, thereby stimulating an immune response, The MHC class IT genes are coordinately regulated by conserved promoter elementsand are inducible by IFN-gamma, Furthermore, IFN-gamma induction of the MHC class II genes in solid human tumor lines requires retinoblastoma protein (Rb). In vivo footprinting analyses of the HLA-DRA gene, which encodes the heavy chain subunit of the human MHC class II molecule, HLA-DR, revealed that Rb facilitates occupancy of multiple HLA-DRA promoter elements. Detecting the effect of Rb on HLA-DRA promoter occupancy in vivo required IFN-gamma treatment, However, use of a variationon the in vivo footprinting technique, nuclei footprinting, which assays for promoter occupancy in isolated nuclei, revealed that expression of Rb facilitates promoter occupancy even in the absence of IFN-gamma. These results indicate that expression of Rb leads to modification of the chromatin environment of the HLA-DRA promoter independently of transcription.
