Tight regulation of MHC class I gene expression is critical for CD8 T cell activation and host adaptive immune responses. The promoters of MHC class I genes contain a well-conserved core module, the W/S-X-Y motif, which assembles a nucleoprotein complex termed MHC-enhanceosome. A member of the NLR (nucleotide binding domain, leucin-rich repeat) protein family, NLRC5, is a newly identified transcriptional regulator of MHC class I genes. NLRC5 associates with and transactivates the proximal promoters of MHC class I genes, although the molecular mechanism of transactivation has not been understood. Here, we show that NLRC5-mediated MHC class I gene induction requires the W/S and X1, X2 cis-regulatory elements. The transcription factors RFX5, RFXAP and RFXANK/B, which compose the RFX protein complex and associate with the X1-box, cooperate with NLRC5 for MHC class I expression. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that NLRC5 specifically interacts with the RFX subunit RFXANK/B via its ankyrin repeats. In addition, we show that NLRC5 can cooperate with ATF1 and the transcriptional co-activators CBP/p300 and GCN5, which display histone acetyltransferase activity. Taken together, our data suggest that NLRC5 participates in an MHC class I specific enhanceosome, which assembles on the conserved W/S-X-Y core module of the MHC class I proximal promoters, including the RFX factor components and CREB/ATF1 family transcription factors to promote MHC class I gene expression.
