ZNF300, which plays the role in human embryonic development and some diseases, is a typical KRAB/C2H2 zinc finger gene expressed only in higher mammalians. Our data showed that expression of ZNF300 changed significantly in various leukemia blasts in the bone marrow aspirates of newly diagnosed leukemia patients. To investigate the potential relationship between expression of ZNF300 and the progression of leukemia development and hematopoietic differentiation, we cloned and characterized the putative human ZNF300 gene promoter and identified its transcription start sites (TSSs). Deletion and mutagenesis analysis demonstrated that a myeloid-specific transcription factor PU.1 binding site was responsible for myeloid-specific regulation of ZNF300 promoter activity. Furthermore, electrophoretic mobility shift and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays revealed that PU.1 bound to the PU.1 binding site within ZNF300 promoter region in vitro and in vivo. Overexpression of PU.1 elevated ZNF300 promoter activity, whereas silencing of PU.1 expression significantly reduced the activity in myeloid-derived HL-60 cell but not in T-cell Jurkat. In vitro induced HL-60 cells into CD11b expressing cells by DMSO demonstrated that ZNF300 was upregulated along with upregulation of PU.1 expression. These results demonstrated that ZNF300 was activated by PU.1 and suggested that the regulation may be involved in the progression of leukemia development and hematopoietic differentiation.
