E1B-AP5 was initially identified as a target of the early adenovirus E1B-55 kDa protein during the course of lytic infection. E1B-AP5 belongs to the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein family and was demonstrated to be involved in mRNA processing and transport [Gabler, Schutt, Groitl, Wolf, Shenk and Dobner (1998) J. Virol. 72, 7960-7971]. In the present paper, we demonstrate that E1B-AP5 differentially regulates basic and ligand-dependent transcription. We found that E1B-AP5 represses basic transcription driven by several virus and cellular promoters, and mapped the repression activity to the N-terminal part of the protein. In contrast with basic repression, E1B-AP5 activated the glucocorticoid-dependent promoter in the absence of dexamethasone, but did not contribute to the dexamethasone-induced activation. Mutant analysis indicated the presence of an additional cellular factor that modulates E1B-AP5 transcriptional activity. Using yeast two-hybrid screening, we identified a novel chromatin-associated bromodomain-containing protein, BRD7, as an E1B-AP5 interaction partner. We confirmed E1B-AP5-BRD7 complex formation in vivo and in vitro. We found that, although BRD7 binds to histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 through its bromodomain, this domain was not necessary for the interaction with E1B-AP5. Indeed, the triple complex formation of E1B-AP5, BRD7 and histones was demonstrated. Disruption of the E1B-AP5-BRD7 complex increased E1B-AP5 repression activity for basic transcription and converted it from being an activator of the hormone-dependent promoter into being a strong repressor. We conclude that complex formation between BRD7 and E1B-AP5 links chromatin events with mRNA processing at the level of transcriptional regulation.
