The akr1-b7 gene encodes a scavenger enzyme expressed in steroidogenic glands under pituitary control. In the zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex where its expression is controlled by ACTH, AKR1-B7 detoxifies isocaproaldehyde produced during the first step of steroidogenesis. Three steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1)-responsive elements (SFREs) are contained within the -510/+41 promoter region, which was previously demonstrated to drive gene expression in transgenic mice adrenal cortex. All these sequences bind at least SF-1 in Y1 adrenocortical cell nuclear extracts and can be activated by overexpression of this factor in HeLa cells. However, the three SFREs show distinct properties regarding akr1-b7 promoter activity in Y1 cells. Whereas the proximal -102 SFRE supports basal promoter activity, the -458 bona fide SFRE is essential for both basal promoter activity and cAMP responsiveness, although it is unresponsive to cAMP when isolated from its promoter context. This suggests that SF-1 is not a cAMP-responsive factor per se. The neighboring SFRE at -503 is a palindromic sequence that binds monomeric and heteromeric SF-1 as well as an adrenal-specific complex. Using MA-10 Leydig cells and Y1-10r9 mutant cells, we provide evidence that its activity in adrenocortical cells depends on the binding of the adrenal-specific factor, which is required for basal and cAMP-induced promoter activity. Furthermore, the -503 site has intrinsic cAMP-sensing ability in Y1 cells, which is correlated with increased adrenal-specific complex binding. Collectively, our results suggest that cAMP responsiveness of the akr1-b7 promoter is achieved through cooperation between the adrenal-specific factor bound to the -503 site and SF-1 bound to the -458 site.
