The FOXO (Forkhead box class O) subgroup of forkhead transcription factors controls the expression of many genes involved in fundamental cellular processes. Until recently, studies conducted on posttranslational modifications of Forkhead proteins were restricted to their phosphorylation. In this report, we show that the coactivator p300 directly acetylates lysines in the carboxyl-terminal region of Foxo1 in vivo and in vitro, and potently stimulates Foxo1-induced transcription of IGF-binding protein-1 in transient transfection experiments. The intrinsic acetyltransferase activity of p300 is required for both activities. Our results suggest that acetylation of Foxo1 by p300 is responsible, at least in part, for its increased transactivation potency, although acetylation of histones cannot be excluded. Insulin, the major negative regulator of Foxo1-stimulated transcription, potently enhances p300 acetylation of Foxo1. Three consensus protein kinase B/Akt phosphorylation sites whose phosphorylation is stimulated by insulin are required for insulin-induced acetylation of Foxo1. In contrast to its importance in regulating the transcriptional activity of Foxo1 in the absence of insulin, acetylation plays only a minor role compared with phosphorylation in insulin inhibition of Foxo1 transcriptional activity.
