Pituitary tumor transforming gene (PTTG1) was isolated from rat pituitary tumor cells, and subsequently identified as a securin protein as well as a transcription factor. We show here a global transcriptional effect of PTTG1 in human choriocarcinoma JEG-3 cells by simultaneously assessing 20,000 gene promoters using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-on-Chip experiments. Seven hundred and forty-six gene promoters (P&lt;0.001) were found enriched, with functions relating to cell cycle, metabolic control and signal transduction. Significant interaction between PTTG1 and Sp1 (P&lt;0.1) was found by transcriptional pattern analysis of ChIP data and further confirmed by immunoprecipitation and pull-down assays. PTTG1 acts coordinately with Sp1 to induce cyclin D3 expression approximately threefold, and promotes G1/S-phase transition independently of p21. PTTG1 deletion was also protective for anchorage-independent cell colony formation. The results show that PTTG1 exhibits properties of a global transcription factor, and specifically modulates the G1/S-phase transition by interacting with Sp1. This novel signaling pathway may be required for PTTG1 transforming activity.
