Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) can function as an auxiliary factor of DNA polymerase delta and epsilon, is required for DNA synthesis andDNA repair. After serum stimulation of quiescent cells, the level of PCNA mRNAincrease and reaches its peak before onset of DNA synthesis. In the present study, a rat PCNA promoter with chloramphicol acetyltransferase (CAT) as reportwas stably transfected into CHO.K1 cells. The promoter named d693 containingsequences between -693 and +125 in reference to the transcription initiation aite has been previously shown to be serum responsive in transient expression study. The CAT activity in the stable transfectants named d693-pCAT.K1 cells also display the same character of serum-responsiveness. In addition, UV irradiation on d693-pCAT.K1 cells induced rat PCNA promoter activity in dose-dependence manner. Such UV inducibility was seen with quiescent cells and growing cells. Furthermore, the promoter region of rat PCNA promoter that isresponsible for UV induction are delimited within the region from -70 to +125,which contains an AP-1 and ATF/CRE site and has been shown to be serum responsive and E1A oncoprotein responsive in the previous studies. Furthermore,the UV inducibility of PCNA promoter dose not require the activities of p53 and E2F, as both p53 and E2F inhibited PCNA promoter activity when they were overexpressed in d693-pCAT.K1 cells. Thus, UV inducibility of the rat PCNA promoter dose not require p53 and E2F.

Expression vector appears to be a dispensable tool for genetic enginee-ring. The advance of DNA recombinant technology allows a versatile type of expression vectors to be developed by many research groups. However, many vectors developed to date are not completely suitable for engineering purpose. For instance, the leakiness of promoters and costly way of induc-tion are common problems, thereby leading to the limited use of these vectors for industrial application. Therefore, in this study we have attem-pted to develop three kinds of expression vectors with characteristic of tight regulation and economic way of induction. (1)The expression system based on the runaway plasmid containing T7 A1 promoter: To characterize this expression system, lacZ was fused to T7 A1 Pro- moter on a runaway plasmid. The strain harboring the recombinant plasmid was found to produce -galactosidase with 40,000 to 45,000 Miller uints upon thermal and chemical induction. In contrast, only 60 to 90 Miller units was produced at an uninduced state. Overall, it accounts for an induction ratio ranging from 350- to 570-fold, indicating the tightness of this expression system. (2)The expression system based on the runaway plasmid containing thermally regulated promoter: As shown above, the expression system based on runaway plasmid carrying a controllable promoter is particularly useful for tight regulation of cloned genes. However, the requirement for chemical induction calls for further improvement for this type of expression system. Accordingly, the expression system was further improved by incorporating the promoter subject to thermal control. As a consequence, the cell carrying the composite vector was capable of producing Pck with 13.15 mol/min/mg upon solely thermal induction. In sharp contrast, Pck yield was hardly detectable at an uninduced state. (3)The expression system based on the promoter under thermal regulation: Expression vectors derived from lac-type promoters are most commonly used. To make these systems more feasible use, lacI gene was mutated by site-directed mutagenesis to become thermally sensitive. Among four types of lacI gene thus mutated, the one with Ala241→Thr exhibited most thermal stability at low temperature (ranging 30 to 37℃), but it lost stability at high temperature (above 39℃). The vector carrying mutant lacI (Ala241→Thr) was constructed to overexpress lacZ, and the result showed that the recombinant strain yielded -galactosidase with 53, 000 Miller uints upon thermal induction. In sharp contrast, the uninduced level accounting for only 130 Miller units was generated. In conclusion, the expression systems developed in this study are characterized by stringent regulation. Moreover, the induction method by using temperature change for these vectors indicates an economic and easy way for controlling the expression of cloned genes in Escherichia coli. The successful demonstration of potential use of these vectors for high produ-ction of recombinant proteins has further suggested their promise in indu- strial application.

ABSTRACT Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), also known as a processivity factor of DNA polymerase delta and epsilon, is required for eukaryotic cell DNA synthesis and repair. Expression of PCNA gene is growth-regulated and stress-responsive. This thesis is composed of four chapters. In chapter 1, the general introduction of PCNA is provided. Previously, the rat PCNA promoter responsive to UV irradiation and serum stimulation has been localized to nucleotides -70 and it contains an ATF (nucleotides -51 to -44) and AP-1 sites (nucleotides -64 to -58). In chapter 2, the rat PCNA promoter, and the endogenous PCNA mRNA and protein are demonstrated to be UV inducible in serum or serum-free recovery, suggesting that this UV inducibility is ubiquitous in cycling and non-cycling cells but not an artifact. Similarly, cells synchronized at all stages show that the UV inducibility of rat PCNA promoter is increased in dose-dependent manner. Hence, the PCNA gene is firstly reported to be UV inducible in all cell stages. Subsequently, the regulating mechanisms for UV inducibility of PCNA gene are addressed. Concerned with the DNA damage induced by UV irradiation, the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) mutant cells (xrs-6) were found to be UV inducible as well as its parental CHO.K1 cells. Moreover, the DNA-PK down-stream pathways are known to involve the p53 and DNA-PK can phosphorylate the p53. However, UV inducibility of rat and human PCNA expression is found to be independent on the UV induced p53 expression (chapter 2 and 3, respectively). These observations suggest that DNA damage checkpoint pathways is not essential for UV inducibility of PCNA gene. Therefore, the cell signal pathways except the DNA damage are investigated in the followings. Given the thiol-rich nature of PCNA and its role in proliferation, PCNA might be affected by redox change. N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), a GSH precursor, was used and inhibited this UV inducibility of PCNA promoter, suggesting that the UV inducibility of PCNA involves the oxidative stress. For comparison to rat PCNA expression as shown in chapter 3, the role of p53 in human PCNA gene expression is studied by infection of the human papillomavirus type 16 E6 oncogene into human fibroblasts (HF). The introduction of E6 to human fibroblasts abrogates the function of cellular p53 and p21WAF1 and the cell growth control in this system. For serum stimulation, the confluent E6-infected cells (E6-HF) but not the parental cells exhibited a marked induction of PCNA. For UV exposure, both parental and E6-infected cells show the PCNA induction at a modest level in the recovery of serum or serum-free containing medium. These observations suggest that p53 may be involved in serum stimulation but not in UV induction of human PCNA gene expression. Therefore, the UV inducibility of both rat and human PCNA expression shows the same characteristic of p53 independence. To define the transcription factors responsive to UV inducibility and serum responsiveness of PCNA promoter, the gel mobility shift assays (EMSA) were used in chapter 4. In serum stimulated or UV irradiated cells, nuclear extracts incubated with probe containing ATF and AP-1 sites also show the increasing formation of the DNA:protein complexes. Similarly, the AP-1 DNA binding ability is enhanced by serum stimulation or UV irradiation. Consisting with the finding, serum responsiveness and UV inducibility of rat PCNA promoter were shown to be AP-1 related by CAT assay previously. This is firstly reported that the DNA:protein interactions require the simultaneous involvement of ATF/CRE and AP-1 sites as either element can abrogate the complexes in the competition experiment, suggesting there are cross talk between these two sites when cells were serum-stimulated or UV-irradiated. Moreover, both the distance and the sequence are essential to complex formation in serum-stimulated cells. ATF-1, but not ATF-2 and CREB, in association with other factors is involved in regulating the serum stimulation of the rat PCNA promoter activity via the proximal ATF and AP-1 sites. In conclusion, this thesis establishes the UV inducibility of rat and human PCNA gene and provides the mechanisms for understanding the serum stimulation and UV induction of PCNA response. The most important contribution is to demonstrate that the oxidative stress, but not the DNA damage checkpoint pathways including DNA-PK and p53, is one of the factors for regulating the UV inducibility of PCNA gene.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated dibenzo-p-furans (PCDFs) and polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) are all important endocrine disrupting chemicals and also persistent organic pollutants. Among them, 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is known to cause most significant health effects in humans. The PCDFs have similar structure and toxicity as PCDDs. Approximately 2000 people were exposed to rice oil contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and their heat-degradation products, mainly polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) in central Taiwan in 1979. CYP1A2 activity was found to be induced by such exposure in exposed individuals. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway was known to be critical in mediating such enzyme induction. Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) and AhR repressor (AhRR) played important roles in transcriptional regulation of AhR. In order to determine whether the ARNT and AhRR polymorphisms are associated with individual inducibility of CYP1A2. We examined the people exposed to PCBs and PCDFs and their community controls, 173 previously participated in a study on CYP1A2 activity as measured by caffeine metabolic rate, which was in turn found to be positively associated with serum 2,3,7,8-TCDD toxic equivalency (TEQ). Genotyping was done for the following SNPs:AhRR(rs2292596)(C/G), ARNT(rs7517566)(A/G), ARNT(rs3820541)(C/G), ARNT(rs3768016)(C/T), and ARNT(rs2228099)(C/G). The allele frequencies of AhRR (rs2292596) were 0.62 for allele C, 0.38 for allele G; those for ARNT (rs7517566) were 0.79 for allele A, and 0.21 for allele G, ARNT (rs3820541) 0.82 for allele C and 0.18 for allele G, ARNT (rs3768016) 0.58 for allele C and 0.42 for allele T, and ARNT (rs2228099) 0.59 for allele C and 0.42 for allele G. At a similar TEQ dose range, those subjects with AhRR GG genotype had the highest induced CYP1A2 activity, followed by those with CG genotype. Those with CC genotypes had lowest inducibility (p<0.05). ARNT(rs3768016) CC genotype had highest inducibility, followed by CT, and TT genotypes. ARNT (rs2228099) GG genotype had highest inducibility, followed by CG, and CC genotypes. We conclude that AhRR and ARNT genotypes might interact with PCBs and PCDFs in cytochrome P450 enzyme induction effects.

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), anauxiliary factor of DNA polymerase D, is required in DNA replication and excision repair. Previous studies have shown that the rat PCNA promoter possesses the serum responsiveness and UV inducibility.In this thesis, the role of AP-1 site (at -64/-58) in rat PCNA promoter in the aspects of serum responsiveness and UV inducibility was studied. The site-specific AP-1 mutant of rat PCNA promoter was constructed using overlap PCR method. The AP-1 mutant promoter isremarkably less active in comparison with itsrespective wild type promoter. Furthermore, the AP-1 mutant partially loses the serum responsiveness and UVinducibility in the experiments in which the mutant promoter was stably transfected into cells. Resultsof this thesis study suggest that AP-1 site (at -64/-58) is necessary for basal activity and plays significant role serum stimulation and UV induction of the rat PCNA promoter.

Both peripheral and thymus NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells displayed an age-associated increase in Qa-2 expression, but the magnitude of the increase was relatively small for NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low thymocytes and was much more pronounced for peripheral NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells. Qa-2 expression was uniformly high for the vast majority of NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells obtained from peripheral tissues and organs. On the other hand, Qa-2 expression was weaker and more heterogeneous for NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells from the thymus. An inverse correlation between the level of Qa-2 expression and IL-4 inducibility was found for both thymus and spleen NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells, although the level of IL-4 inducibility was significantly higher for cells from the thymus than the spleen. Similar enrichment of IL-4 inducibility in peripheral NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells was observed in mice carrying disrupted p59fyn or il4r genes. Isolation of the Vb(2/7/8)+ subset from spleen Qa-2lowNK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells resulted in further enrichment in IL-4 inducibility. In the absence of exogenously added cytokines, TCR-stimulated IL-4 production by spleen Qa-2lowNK1-CD4+8-CD44low T cells promoted their own differentiation toward Th2 effectors in an IL-4-dependent manner. Under Th1 priming conditions, both Qa-2low and Qa-2hi subsets of spleen NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells differentiated into high level IFNg-producing Th1 effectors. Under Th2 priming conditions, both Qa-2low and Qa-2hi subsets of spleen NK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells differentiated into high level IL-4-produccing Th2 effectors. Thus, the generally accepted low level IL-4 inducibility by naïve CD4+ T cells is due to high level IL-4 inducibility by a small subpopulation of peripheral CD4+ T cells and not due to low level IL-4 inducibility by all or most naïve CD4+ T cells. Furthermore, this small subset of Qa-2lowNK1-CD4+CD8-CD44low T cells, by virtue of its naïve phenotype, prompt IL-4 inducibility, and distribution in the periphery, is expected to play a significant role in the initial stages of immune response by rapidly releasing IL-4 which may in turn direct Th2 response and other IL-4-dependent processes.

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), an auxiliary factor of DNA polymerase delta, is required in eukaryotic DNA replication and repair. Previous studies by series deletion have shown that the rat PCNA promoter possesses the serum responsiveness and UV inducibility in the region of nucleotide between -70 and +125 which contains one AP-1 site and one ATF/ CRE site. Furthermore, it was found that the AP-1 mutation partially loses the serum responsiveness and UV inducibility. In this thesis,we try to characterize the role of AP-1 site and proximal ATF/CRE site in rat PCNA promoter in the aspects of serum responsiveness and UV inducibility. Using megapriming PCR method, we constructed the site-specific ATF/CRE mutated promoter and the AP-1/ATF double mutated promoter. In comparison with the AP-1 mutant promoter, the ATF/CRE mutant promoter partially loses the serum responsiveness but represents more UV inducibility even than the wild type. Furthermore, when the AP-1/ATF double mutated promoter was transfected stably into CHO.K1 cells, the serum responsiveness and UV inducibility decreased remarkably. Results of this thesis suggest that the proximal AP-1 site and ATF/CRE site are both necessary for basal activity and play crucial roles in serum stimulation of rat PCNA promoter. On the other hand, the ATF/CRE site may be a negative regulator in UV induction of rat PCNA promoter. It remains for further investigation.

CD1d-restricted NKT cells respond to TCR-stimulation by prompt IL-4 production and were originally thought to play a major role in the initiation of IgE response. NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- thymocytes were also capable of TCR-stimulated prompt IL-4 inducibility in all common mouse strains examined. The property of IL-4 inducibility by these NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- thymocytes was found primarily in Va3.2+ and Vb2/7/8+ cells. Unlike NKT cells, the development of IL-4 inducibility+ NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- thymocytes was b2m-, CD1d-, and p59fyn-independent. NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- thymocytes also produced IL-5, IL-10, and IL-13, but very low levels of IFN-g in response to TCR stimulation. The IL-4 inducibility+ NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- thymocytes expressed highly diverse CDR3 in both TCR a and b chains. Va3.2 and Vb8 CDR3 from single IL-4 mRNA+ and IL-4 mRNA- cells were subcloned into full-length Va3.2 and Vb8 transgene constructs, and injected into fertilized eggs to produce TCR transgenic mice. A “P”-series of 8 independent TCR transgenic lines (4 each of TCR-a and -b) were produced from Va3.2 and Vb8 cloned from 4 randomly selected IL-4-producing single NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- thymocytes. Another “N”-series of 6 independent TCR transgenic lines (3 each of TCR-a and -b) were produced from Va3.2 and Vb8 cloned from 3 randomly selected IL-4-non-producing single NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- thymocytes. Single TCR-a and -b transgenic mice were crossed to generate double TCR-ab transgenic mice. All P-series TCR-ab transgenic mice displayed elevated IL-4 inducibility in Va3.2+Vb8+ thymocytes and increased serum IgE levels. All N-series TCR-ab transgenic mice, on the other hand, expressed low or negligible IL-4 inducibility in Va3.2+Vb8+ thymocytes and had normal serum IgE levels. Positive selection of P3 TCR-ab transgenic T cells was MHC-II-, but not MHC-I- or CD1d-dependent. Positive selection was necessary but not sufficient in conferring IL-4 inducibility which was dependent on the presence of TCR-gd T cells. These results demonstrate 1) the existence of a MHC-II-restricted CD4+ T cell subset capable of prompt IL-4 inducibility; 2) the critical roles played by CDR3 of both TCR-a and -b chains and by TCR-gd T cells in the acquisition of IL-4 inducibility and elevated serum IgE levels; and 3) the likelihood for the IL-4 inducibility+ NK1-CD44lowCD4+CD8- T cells to participate in immune response to a relatively large number of antigens due to their highly diverse TCR repertoire.
