The NR1 gene undergoes induction in neurogenesis mainly via promoter de-repression, and up-regulation during neuronal differentiation by undefined mechanism(s). Here, we show that in the distal region the NR1 promoter has an active NF-kappaB site sharing the consensus with the immunoglobulin (Ig)/human immunodeficiency virus NF-kappaB site. Mutation of this site significantly reduced NR1 promoter up-regulation during neuronal differentiation of P19 cells. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays revealed that P19 nuclei constitutively contained p50 and that neuronal differentiation not only increased nuclear p50 but also induced p65 nuclear translocation. Responding to this change was an up-regulation of NF-kappaB-dependent promoter activity. However, inhibition of NF-kappaB nuclear translocation by an IkappaBalpha super-repressor or decoy DNA only moderately inhibited NR1 promoter up-regulation. Interestingly, the NR1 NF-kappaB site strongly interacted with Sp3/Sp1, instead of NF-kappaB factors, in P19 nuclear extracts. This interaction was reduced for Sp3 following neuronal differentiation, accompanied by dynamic expression of Sp factors. Cotransfection of Sp factors (Sp1, 3, or 4) upregulated the NR1 NF-kappaB site dramatically in differentiated neurons, but only moderately in undifferentiated P19 cells. This up-regulation was strong for Sp1 in differentiated cells and for Sp3 in undifferentiated cells. Chromatin-immunoprecipitation assays further demonstrated that Sp1 and Sp3 interacted with the NR1 NF-kappaB site in situ, and Sp3 lost its interaction after neuronal differentiation. We conclude that the NF-kappaB site positively regulates the NR1 promoter during neuronal differentiation via interacting mainly with Sp factors and neuronal differentiation reduces the effect of Sp3 factor on this site.
