Abstract

Cyclic AMP responsive element (CRE) binding protein (CREB) is known to activate transcription when its Ser133 is phosphorylated. However, transducer of regulated CREB activity (TORC), a CREB specific co-activator, upregulates CREB activity in a phospho-Ser133-independent manner. Interestingly, TORC is also regulated by phosphorylation; the phospho-form is inactive, and the dephospho-form active. When PKA phosphorylates CREB, it inhibits TORC kinases simultaneously and accelerates dephosphorylation of TORC. We show in this report that staurosporine, a kinase inhibitor, induces the expression of the StAR gene in Y1 adrenocortical cells, possibly a result of an increase in the population of dephospho-TORC. The expression of the StAR gene is known to be regulated by SF-1 and CREB, and the co-activators CBP/p300 may mediate the actions of both factors. Our experiments using KG501, a disruptor of the interaction between phospho-CREB and CBP/p300, also support the importance of TORC in the regulation of StAR gene expression.
