The observation that cyclin B1 protein and mRNAs are down-regulated in terminally differentiated (TD) C2C12 cells, suggested us to investigate the transcriptional regulation of the cyclin B1 gene in these cells. Transfections of cyclin B1 promoter constructs indicate that two CCAAT boxes support cyclin B1 promoter activity in proliferating cells. EMSAs demonstrate that both CCAAT boxes are recognized by the trimeric NF-Y complex in proliferating but not in TD cells. Transfecting a dominant-negative mutant of NF-YA we provide evidence that NF-Y is required for maximal promoter activity. Addition of recombinant NF-YA to TD C2C12 nuclear extracts restores binding activity in vitro, thus indicating that the loss of NF-YA in TD cells is responsible for the lack of the NF-Y binding to the CCAAT boxes. Consistent with this, we found that the NF-YA protein is absent in TD C2C12 cells. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that NF-Y is required for cyclin B1 promoter activity. We also demonstrate that cyclin B1 expression is regulated at the transcriptional level in TD C2C12 cells and that the switch-off of cyclin B1 promoter activity in differentiated cells depends upon the loss of a functional NF-Y complex. In particular the loss of NF-YA protein is most likely responsible for its inactivation.
