ICSBP (IRF-8) is a transcription factor of the IRF family expressed only in the immune system. It is induced in macrophages by gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and contributes to macrophage functions. By interacting with Ets family protein PU.1, ICSBP binds to the IRF/Ets composite element and stimulates transcription. ICSBP binds to another DNA element, the IFN-stimulated response element (ISRE), a common target of the IRF family. Limited knowledge as to how ICSBP and other IRF proteins regulate ISRE-dependent transcription in WN-y-activated macrophages is available. By mass-spectrometric analysis of ISRE-bound proteins in macrophages, we identified TEL, another Ets member, as a factor recruited to the element in an IFN-y-dependent manner. In vitro analysis with recombinant proteins indicated that this recruitment is due to a direct interaction between ICSBP and TEL, which is enhanced by the presence of ISRE. Significantly, the interaction with TEL in turn resulted in the recruitment of the histone deacetytase HDAC3 to the ISRE, causing increased repression of IFN-y-mediated reporter activity through the ISRE. This repression may provide a negative-feedback mechanism operating after the initial transcriptional activation by IFN-y. By associating with two different Ets family proteins, ICSBP exerts a dual function in IFN-y-dependent gene regulation in an immune system-specific manner.
