The signaling/oncogenic activity of β-catenin can be repressed by the activation of nuclear receptors such as the vitamin A, vitamin D, and androgen receptors. Although these receptors directly interact with β-catenin and can sequester it away from its transcription factor partner T-cell factor, it is not known if this is the mechanism of trans-repression. Using several different promoter constructs and nuclear receptors and mammalian two-hybrid and mutation analyses we now show that interaction with the co-activator, p300, underlies the trans-repression of β-catenin signaling by nuclear receptors and their ligands.
