Tunable regulation of CREB DNA binding activity couples genotoxic stress response and metabolism

ABSTRACT: In this study we show that, in embryonic fibroblasts from mice on a high fat diet and treated with Forskolin, ionizing radiation exposure or both, phosphorylation of CREB-binding protein (CREB) by ATM (ataxia-telangiectasia-mutated) and casein kinases 1 and 2 (CK1 and CK2) on a cluster of five phosphorylation sites (the ATM/CK cluster) within the unstructured kinase-inducible domain (KID) provides an additional level of regulation through dynamic modulation of CREB DNA binding activity. Stoichiometric phosphorylation of the ATM/CK cluster in response to DNA damage inhibited cAMP-induced CREB target gene expression, CREB DNA binding activity, and CREB-CRTC2-DNA ternary complex formation proportional to the number of phosphate residues modified. Substoichiometric phosphorylation of the ATM/C
