Nuclear translocation of CBP/p300-interacting protein CITED1 induced by parathyroid hormone requires serine phosphorylation at position 79 in its 63-84 domain.

The transcriptional cofactor CITED1 inhibits osteoblastic differentiation and blunts the stimulation of osteoblastic differentiation by parathyroid hormone (PTH). In the MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cell line, we found that CITED1 was located predominantly in the cytoplasm and that hPTH(1-34) increased translocation of CITED1 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. This response to hPTH(1-34) was not observed when all 9 serine residues within the 63-84 domain of CITED1 were mutated to alanines (CITED1 9S>A) or when a single serine to alanine mutation was made at position 79 (CITED1 S(79)>A). CITED1 containing mutations of these 9 serines to glutamic acid (9S>E) retained the same nuclear translocation response to hPTH(1-34) as the wild type CITED1. ALP activity and formation of mineralized nodules were inhibited in cells transfected with pcDNA3-CFP-CITED1 or with pcDNA3-CFP-CITED1 9S>E with or without hPTH(1-34) treatment (all P<0.05); these changes were not observed using CITED1 9S>A. Cells exposed to intermittent treatment with hPTH(1-34) expressed more ALP2, Runx2 and osteocalcin than vehicle-treated cells. These effects of hPTH(1-34) were inhibited in cells transfected with pcDNA3-CFP-CITED1 or pcDNA3-CFP-CITED1 9S>E, but were slightly enhanced by the alanine mutants. activator (TPA) increased nuclear translocation of CITED1, whereas a duanyu1531 inhibitor (Go6983) blunted the effect of hPTH(1-34) on the nuclear translocation of wildtype CITED1 but not of CITED1 S(79)>E. The data indicated that serine phosphorylation at position 79 in the 63-84 domain is associated with duanyu1531 activation, and is required for both CITED1 nuclear translocation induced by PTH and the negative effects of CITED1 on osteoblastic differentiation and mineralization.
