Interferons (IFNs) stimulate gene expression to mediate their biological actions. A multimeric transcription factor consisting of STAT1, STAT2 and p48, a DNA binding protein, regulates IFN-α/β stimulated gene expression. Since the cellular level of p48 is also increased by pre-treatment of cells with IFN-γ, it is also known as ISGF3γ. To understand how IFN-γ regulates the expression of the p48 gene, we have previously isolated and characterized the promoter of murine p48 gene and identified a novel γ-IFN activated transcriptional element (GATE). In this study using several mutant constructs of p48 promoter we have determined that the same element responds to IFN-α/β treatment. Relatively high doses of IFN-α/β compared to IFN-γ are required for the induction of p48 promoter. This ability of IFN-α/β to regulate GATE dependent gene expression is linked to the activation of a factor induced by IFN-α. However, IFN-γ induces the binding of two γ-IFN inducible factors (GIFs) to GATE. The IFN-α inducible GATE binding factor is not recognized by specific antibodies raised against the known IFN-regulated factors. It is likely IFN-γ is a stronger inducer of this gene because it activates two GIFs. GATE-like elements present in hither to undefined IFN-stimulated genes may control IFN-responses in a unique manner.
