It remains uncertain how the DNA sequence of mammalian genes influences the transcriptional response to extracellular signals. Here, we show that the number of CREB-binding sites (CREs) affects whether the related histone acetyltransferases (HATs) CREB-binding protein (CBP) and p300 are required for endogenous gene transcription. Fibroblasts with both CBP and p300 knocked-out had strongly attenuated histone H4 acetylation at CREB-target genes in response to cyclic-AMP, yet transcription was not uniformly inhibited. Interestingly, dependence on CBP/p300 was often different between reporter plasmids and endogenous genes. Transcription in the absence of CBP/p300 correlated with endogenous genes having more CREs, more bound CREB, and more CRTC2 (a non-HAT coactivator of CREB). Indeed, CRTC2 rescued cAMP-inducible expression for certain genes in CBP/p300 null cells and contributed to the CBP/p300-independent expression of other targets. Thus, endogenous genes with a greater local concentration and diversity of coactivators tend to have more resilient-inducible expression. This model suggests how gene expression patterns could be tuned by altering coactivator availability rather than by changing signal input or transcription factor levels.
