E2F-1 mediates apoptosis through transcriptional regulation of its targets. We report here that E2F-1 acts as a direct transcriptional regulator of dual specificity phosphatase I (DUSP1; CL100), a threonine and tyrosine phosphatase that inhibits mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases. We found that DUSP1 is transcriptionally induced by ectopic E2F-1 expression and that extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 are dephosphorylated in the presence of E2F-1 and DUSP1. E2F-1 mediates apoptosis in the cellular response to oxidative stress. DUSP1 levels are significantly increased in an E2F-1-dependent manner following oxidative stress but not other stresses examined. DUSP1 mediates the cellular response to oxidative stress. We found that E2F-1 binds to chromatin encompassing the DUSP1 promoter and greatly stimulates the promoter activity of the DUSP1 gene. In particular, E2F-1 physically binds to an E2F-1 consensus sequence and a palindromic motif in the DUSP1 promoter. Interestingly. E2F-1 is acetylated following oxidative stress. Our findings show that E2F-1 is a transcriptional activator of DUSP1 and that DUSP1 is a link between E2F-1 and MAP kinases.
