| Abstract | The Interferon Regulatory Factors (IRFS) play an important role in the transcriptional control of growth regulatory and immunoregulatory genes. The inducibility and availability of IRF-1 and IRF-2 are influenced by external stimuli, such as virus infection or interferon treatment. In the present study, we sought to examine the potential modulatory role of phosphorylation on IRF-1 transcriptional activity. During the purification of IRF recombinant proteins, a kinase activity copurified with IRF- 1 (and IRF-2) from baculovirus infected Sf9 insect cell extracts, but not from E. coli extracts. The kinase activity was also identified in Jurkat T cells, specifically interacted with IRF proteins in GST affinity chromatography, and phosphorylated IRF-1 with high specificity in vitro. Using an in gel kinase assay with recombinant IRF-1 as substrate, two molecular weight forms of the kinase (43 and 38 kDa) were identified. Biochemical criteria identified the kinase activity as the alpha catalytic subunit of casein kinase II (CKII). Furthermore, far western analysis of protein-protein interactions demonstrated that casein kinase II directly interacted with IRF-1 protein. Deletion mutation analysis of IRF-1 revealed that IRF-1 was phosphorylated at two clustered sites, one located between amino acids 138-150, the other in the C-terminal acidic activation domain between amino acids 219-231. Cotransfection studies comparing wild type and point mutated forms of IRF-1 demonstrated that mutations of the four phosphoaceptor residues in the C-terminal transactivation domain, significantly decreased transactivation by IRF-1, indicating that casein kinase II may be involved in the regulation of IRF-1 function. Strikingly, the casein kinase II clusters in IRF-1 resemble the sites identified in the C-terminal PEST domain of I<κBα [29]. The present experiments, together with previously published studies with I<κBα, c-Jun and other proteins, indicate a broad role for casein kinase II phosphorylation in the regulation of transcription factor activity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
