IFNalpha activates JAK-STAT signaling, followed by up-regulation of a cohort of genes. Also the PI3K pathway is activated by IFNalpha, but the significance of this activation for IFN-induced gene expression and biological functions remains unclear. We used a cDNA microarray to identify IFNalpha target genes whose expression is dependent on PI3K signaling. cDNAs from U266-1984 cells, untreated and IFNalpha-treated with or without PI3K inhibitor, Ly294002, was used in hybridization to a microarray representing 7000 genes. Among the 260 genes stimulated by IFNalpha, the expression of 95.4% was not affected by the presence of Ly294002. Luciferase reporter assays using consensus IFN-stimulated sequences confirmed that general regulation of transcription by IFNalpha is not altered by Ly294002. Up-regulation of 10 genes (3.8%) was affected in the presence of Ly294002. Bioinformatic analysis revealed the presence of consensus sequences of both STAT-specific and the PI3K pathway-regulated transcription factors, further suggesting that these genes are regulated by both pathways. We have recently shown that IFNalpha-induced apoptosis in the myeloma cell line U266-1984 was efficiently blocked by inhibition of PI3K. Therefore we suggest that the genes that are regulated by both the STAT and the PI3K pathways by IFNalpha in these cells may be specifically involved in the induction of apoptosis.
Fbw7 is a ubiquitin-ligase that targets several oncoproteins for proteolysis, but the full range of Fbw7 substrates is not known. Here we show that by performing quantitative proteomics combined with degron motif searches, we effectively screened for a more complete set of Fbw7 targets. We identify 89 putative Fbw7 substrates, including several disease-associated proteins. The transcription factor NF-κB2 (p100/p52) is one of the candidate Fbw7 substrates. We show that Fbw7 interacts with p100 via a conserved degron and that it promotes degradation of p100 in a GSK3β phosphorylation-dependent manner. Fbw7 inactivation increases p100 levels, which in the presence of NF-κB pathway stimuli, leads to increased p52 levels and activity. Accordingly, the apoptotic threshold can be increased by loss of Fbw7 in a p100-dependent manner. In conclusion, Fbw7-mediated destruction of p100 is a regulatory component restricting the response to NF-κB2 pathway stimulation.
