The 3<super>′</super> <italic>Igh</italic> enhancers, hs3B and/or hs4, are required for germline transcription (GT), and hence, class switch recombination (CSR) for multiple isotypes. A number of hs3-binding transcription factors have been identified by EMSA, including octamer and NF-kB family members, and Pax5. We have found that the binding of the transcription factor, Yin Yang 1 (YY1), to hs3 and to the μE1 site of the intronic enhancer, <italic> E</italic>μ, is induced in primary splenic B cells after &sim;48 hrs in response to LPS and other activators of CSR. Transient transfection experiments in B cell lines indicate that YY1 is an activator of hs3. Interestingly, levels of YY1 expression are unchanged in resting and LPS-stimulated B cells. Mixing experiments followed by EMSA showed that a protein present in resting B cells prevented YY1's binding to DNA. We found that recombinant Rb protein inhibited binding of YY1 to hs3 in a dose-dependent manner; and we have identified complexes of endogenous YY1 with the retinoblastoma protein (Rb) in resting B cells, but not in LPS stimulated B cells. A difference in Rb phosphorylation state was also confirmed between resting (G<sub>0</sub>) B cells and LPS stimulated B cells. These observations suggest that the interaction of YY1 with hypo-phosphorylated Rb in resting B cells prevents YY1's interaction with DNA. After stimulation with class switching activators, such as LPS, Rb becomes hyper-phosphorylated, YY1 is released and can then bind to the hs3 enhancer and <italic>E</italic>μ. Our data provide the first evidence for the role of YY1 in regulating hs3 enhancer activity, and suggest a mechanism by which cell cycle control and the early stages of class switch recombination, mediated by the 3<super>′ </super> <italic>Igh</italic> and intronic enhancers, can be linked at the molecular level.Subjects--Topical Terms:
