Type I interferons (IFNs) stimulate transcription through a latent heterotrimeric transcription factor composed of tyrosine-phosphorylated STAT1 and STAT2 and the DNA binding partner IRF9, with STAT2 contributing a critical transactivation domain. Human RVB1 and RVB2, which are highly conserved AAA+ ATP binding proteins contained in chromatin-remodeling complexes such as Ino80, SNF2-related CBP activator protein (SRCAP), and Tip60/NuA4, interacted with the transactivation domain of STAT2 in the nuclei of IFN-stimulated cells. RNA interference (RNAi) experiments demonstrated that RVB proteins were required for robust activation of IFN-α-stimulated genes (ISGs). The requirement for RVB proteins was specific to IFN-α/STAT2 signaling; transcription of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)- and IFN-γ-driven genes was not affected by RVB1 depletion. Using RNAi-based depletion, we assessed the involvement of catalytic subunits of the RVB-containing Tip60, BRD8, Ino80, SRCAP, and URI complexes. No component other than RVB1/2 was uniquely required for ISG induction, suggesting that RVB1/2 functions as part of an as yet unidentified complex. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays indicated that RVB1/2 was required for recruitment of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) to ISG promoters but was dispensable for STAT2 recruitment to chromatin. We hypothesize that an RVB1/2 chromatin-remodeling complex is required for efficient Pol II recruitment and initiation at ISG promoters and is recruited through interaction with the STAT2 transactivation domain.
