Analysis of the interactions of two synthetic estrogen antagonists, tamoxifen and CI 628, with rat uterine and chick oviduct cytosol revealed significant differences in the antiestrogen binding properties of these tissues. In the rat uterus CI 628, tamoxifen and estradiol were bound to a similar number of saturable binding sites and estradiol could completely inhibit the binding of tritiated antiestrogens to these sites. In contrast, high affinity, saturable antiestrogen binding sites in chick oviduct were present at three times the concentration of estradiol binding sites and estradiol could only partially inhibit the binding of tritiated antiestrogens to these sites. It is concluded that antiestrogens bind to the estrogen receptor in both tissues and that chick oviduct has an additional saturable antiestrogen binding site distinct from the classical estrogen receptor site. 相似文献

To determine whether the human estrogen receptor requires ligand to bind to its cognate estrogen receptor element (ERE) in vivo, we have examined the structure of chromatin at a chromosomally integrated ERE-URA3 reporter gene in yeast, and the influence of ligand bound and ligand free estrogen receptors on that structure. Using indirect end-labelling to map DNaseI and micrococcal nuclease sensitive sites, we found that receptor induced alterations in chromatin structure were completely dependent upon the presence of estradiol. These same alterations in chromatin structure were induced by a truncated estrogen receptor with both TAF-1 and TAF-2 transactivation functions deleted, suggesting that DNA binding per se disrupts chromatin structure. These results support models in which the estrogen receptor requires ligand to bind to the ERE in vivo. 相似文献

Our laboratory has previously reported that antiestrogen binding to molybdate-stabilized non-transformed estrogen receptor results in a larger form of the receptor in 0.3 M KCl when compared with estrogen bound receptor. Estradiol promoted the formation of monomers in the presence of 0.3 M KCl whereas antiestrogen appeared to promote dimer formation. We have extended these studies examining the rabbit uterine salt-transformed estrogen receptor partially purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. We previously demonstrated that estrogen receptor prepared in this way bound to different sites on partially deproteinized chromatin subfractions or reconstituted chromosomal protein/DNA fractions when the receptor was complexed with estrogen vs antiestrogen. Analysis of these receptor preparations indicated that DEAE-cellulose step-elution resulted in a peak fraction which sedimented as a single 5.9S peak in 5-20% sucrose density gradients containing 0.3 M KCl for receptor bound by the antiestrogens H1285 and trans-hydroxytamoxifen. However, receptor bound by estradiol sedimented as 4.5S. These receptor complexes bound DNA-cellulose indicating that these partially purified receptors were transformed. DEAE rechromatography or agarose gel filtration of the partially purified antiestrogen-receptor complexes resulted in significant dissociation of the larger complex into monomers. Incubations of 5.9S antiestrogen-receptor complexes with antibodies against nontransformed steroid receptor-associated proteins (the 59 and 90 kDa proteins) did not result in the interaction of this larger antiestrogen-receptor complex with these antibodies (obtained from L. E. Faber and D. O. Toft, respectively). Our results support the concept that antiestrogen binding induces a different receptor conformation which could affect monomer-dimer equilibrium, thus rendering the antiestrogen-receptor complex incapable of inducing complete estrogenic responses in target tissues. 相似文献

The binding of estradiol to uterine cytosoluble receptors from 24-day-old rats was reduced or potentiated by unsaturated fatty acids (NEFAs), depending on the concentrations of estradiol and unsaturated NEFAs. At estradiol concentrations of up to 1.5 x 10(-8) M, unsaturated NEFAs inhibited estradiol binding to the 8 S cytosol receptor. This inhibition was dose-dependent (10-70%, p less than 0.001) and a function of NEFA unsaturation. Scatchard analysis indicated that unsaturated NEFAs caused a large decrease in receptor affinity for estradiol. Polyunsaturated NEFAs had no apparent effect on estradiol binding at estradiol concentrations of 2-4 x 10(-8) M. At high estradiol concentrations (above 4 x 10(-8) M), estradiol binding was increased 130-250% (p less than 0.01) by polyunsaturated NEFAs. This increased binding was particularly associated with proteins sedimenting at 12.5 S and the 8 S binding was, in fact, reduced. Metabolic studies showed that the reduced binding in the presence of unsaturated fatty acids was correlated with a decrease in reversibly bound estradiol at low estradiol concentrations. The increase in estradiol binding at high estradiol concentrations is the result of a reduction in reversibly bound estradiol and an increase in nonorganic solvent-extractable (water-soluble) estradiol. The amounts of these water-soluble estradiol derivatives depended on both estradiol and unsaturated NEFA concentrations. 70% of the water-soluble estradiol derivatives were trichloroacetic acid-precipitable, suggesting a covalent protein-steroid link. Thus, changes in the hydrophobic fatty acid environment of the uterine cytosol estrogen receptor could modify estrogen-receptor function by altering binding site conformation and/or by inducing changes in estradiol metabolism. 相似文献

The site- or domain-specific immobilization of steroid receptor proteins with preserved structure and function would facilitate the identification and purification of receptor-associated regulatory components and nucleic acids. We have demonstrated previously that restricted surface regions of the estrogen receptor protein contain high affinity binding sites for immobilized Zn(II) ions. Possible conformational changes in receptor at the stationary phase immobilized metal ion interface were evaluated by monitoring alterations in the equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) for [3H]estradiol. Soluble estrogen receptor proteins (unliganded) present in immature calf uterine cytosol were immobilized via surface-exposed Zn(II)-binding sites to beads of agarose derivatized with iminodiacetate (IDA)-Zn(II) ions. The IDA-Zn(II) bound receptor was incubated with increasing concentrations of [3H]estradiol (0.01-20 nM) in the presence and absence of unlabeled competitor (diethylstilbestrol) to determine the level of specific hormone binding. Steroid-binding experiments were performed in parallel with identical aliquots of soluble receptor. Analyses of the equilibrium binding data revealed the presence of a single class of high-affinity (Kd = 2.44 +/- 1.5 nM, n = 10) steroid-binding sites which were only marginally affected by receptor immobilization via surface-exposed Zn(II) bindings sites (Kd = 2.58 +/- 0.56 nM, n = 4). These data are consistent with the location of surface accessible Zn(II) binding site(s) on the receptor at or near the DNA binding domain which, upon occupancy, do not influence the steroid binding domain.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We have recently characterized the interaction of mouse mammary estrogen receptors (ER) with mammary chromatin acceptor sites and demonstrated that ER from estrogen resistant lactating mammary glands do not bind to chromatin. In this study we have characterized the chromatin binding of the glucocorticoid receptor from mouse mammary glands isolated from nulliparous and lactating mice in order to better understand the relationship between receptor binding to chromatin and steroidogenic sensitivity of the tissue. Mammary chromatin was linked covalently to cellulose and deproteinized sequentially by 0-8 M Gdn-HCl. Binding to intact chromatin as well as to chromatin deproteinized by Gdn-HCl was determined using partially purified [3H]dexamethasone labelled glucocorticoid-receptor complexes (GR) obtained by fractionation on DEAE-cellulose columns. The binding of [3H]GR from mammary glands of nulliparous mice to chromatin fractions from the same tissue revealed maximal binding activity (acceptor sites) on chromatin previously extracted with 5-6 M Gdn-HCl. Binding of [3H]GR was of high affinity (Kd = 0.2 nM) and saturable. A simultaneous comparison of the chromatin binding patterns for [3H]ER and [3H]GR isolated from mammary glands of nulliparous mice revealed that the chromatin subfractions obtained with 4-6 M Gdn-HCl extraction contained acceptor sites for both [3H]ER and [3H]GR; however, while the [3H]ER bound to a 4.5 M and a 5.5 M site, the [3]GR bound a 5 M and a 6 M site. Competition experiments supported the steroid receptor specificity of the chromatin acceptor sites. Thus, the 4-6 M chromatin fractions contain distinct acceptor sites for the glucocorticoid receptor and for the estrogen receptor. In addition our studies reveal that the binding patterns of [3H]GR isolated from mammary glands of nulliparous and lactating mice to their homologous chromatin is essentially similar. Thus, in contrast to estrogen receptors, glucocorticoid receptors from lactating mammary glands are able to effectively bind to chromatin acceptor sites which supports our previous suggestion that the estrogenic insensitivity of lactating mouse mammary glands may at least be in part due to the impeded interaction of ER with chromatin acceptor sites. 相似文献

The relative binding affinities of a series of twelve para-hydroxylated triphenylethylenes (TPEs) for the estradiol receptor (ER) of calf uterus cytosol were measured by a competition method. The results obtained under equilibrium conditions support the hypothesis of the additivity of the energies corresponding to each of the hydrogen-bond type interactions of di- or tri-hydroxylated TPEs with the estradiol binding site of ER and strongly suggest that, whichever ring is hydroxylated, the orientation of the TPE in the steroid binding site is always the same. A hydroxyl group in a given position always interacts with the same location within the site. Mono-hydroxylation of the highly hydrophobic non-substituted TPE skeleton led to a large increase in relative binding affinity for ER which could be explained by a dual mechanism whereby the interaction specific to the hydroxyl is accompanied by a temperature- or time-dependent binding process that is not related to the hydroxylation position. 相似文献

As an integral part of the development of a new technique using organometallic markers for the detection of hormone receptors by FT-IR spectroscopy, a series of estradiol derivatives labeled with Cr(CO)3 or Cr(CO)2CS fragments on the A ring has been synthesized. The stereochemistry of one of these steroids, alpha-[3-(dimethyl-tert-butylsiloxy)-17 beta-estradiol]dicarbonyl(thiocarbonyl)chromium(0), has been established by X-ray diffraction. The organochromium-labeled steroids are stable in aqueous methanol solution, and their relative binding affinities to estrogen receptor have been determined; these values vary from 0.4 to 28%. The complex exhibiting the strongest affinity, [3-O-(3-hydroxypropyl)-17 beta-estradiol]-chromium tricarbonyl complex, has been prepared in a tritiated form with a high specific activity (4.1 Ci/mmol). This tritiated hormone binds reversibly to the estradiol receptor in lamb uterine cytosol with an affinity (Kd = 0.85 nM) and number of binding sites (n = 770 fmol/mg of protein) close to the values observed for estradiol itself. The level of nonspecific binding is low, and the hormone is not bound significantly to other nontarget tissues. The observation that the binding affinity of the steroid depends on which side of the steroidal A ring the organometallic label is bound demonstrates the nonequivalence of the two sides of the A ring with respect to the receptor site. The FT-IR spectra of the organochromium markers in the v(CO) region can be used for the detection of the estradiol receptor in lamb uterine cytosol. 相似文献

Estrogen regulation of trefoil factor 1 expression by estrogen receptor alpha and Sp proteins 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Estrogen-responsive genes in human breast cancer cells often have an estrogen response element (ERE) positioned next to an Sp1 binding site. In chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays, we investigated the binding of estrogen receptor alpha (ER), Sp1, and Sp3 to the episomal and native estrogen-responsive trefoil factor 1 (TFF1; formerly pS2) promoter in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Mutation of the Sp site upstream of the ERE reduced estrogen responsiveness and prevented binding of Sp1 and Sp3, but not ER to the episomal promoter. In the absence of estradiol (E2), Sp1, Sp3, histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC), and HDAC2, and low levels of acetylated H3 and H4 are associated with the native promoter, with the histones being engaged in dynamic reversible acetylation. Following E2 addition, levels of ER and acetylated H3 and H4 bound to the native promoter increases. There is clearance of Sp1, but not of Sp3, from the promoter while HDAC1 and HDAC2 remain bound. These data are consistent with a model in which Sp1 or Sp3 aid in recruitment of HDACs and histone acetyltransferases (HATs) to mediate dynamic acetylation of histones associated with the TFF1 promoter, which is in a state of readiness to respond to events occurring following the addition of estrogen. 相似文献

Intact and pure nuclei were isolated by zonal centrifugation from calf uteri preincubated with [3H] estradiol at 37°C. Alternatively, labelling of nuclei was performed by cell-free incubation of filtrate homogenates with radio-active homone at 25°C. The kinetics of dissociation of the estradiol—receptor complex was studied by the tritiated estradiol—non-radioactiv estradiol-exchange method at 22°C using: (a) intact nuclei and isolated chromatin, (b) a 0.5M KCl nuclear extract (5 S) and different cytosolic preparations (4 S, 8 S or heavy aggregates), or (c) cytosolic extracts bound to an inert support like hydroxylapatite or precipitated by nuclear basic proteins. In the three groups the dissociation follows the well established two-stage first-order kinetics patterns, but whereas in Group a the operational half-life of the complex was 5 h, all the preparations of Group b, including the nuclear extract, yielded a half-life of only 10 min. Intermediate values were obtained for the preparations of Group c. Its concluded that the binding to the chromatin endows the estradiol— receptor complex with a higher stability. This might account for the characteristic retention of estradiol in uterine cells in in vivo conditions. 相似文献

Phenobarbital induction of CYP2B genes is mediated by a complex phenobarbital-responsive enhancer (PBRU), which contains a binding site for nuclear factor-1 (NF-1) flanked by two DR-4 nuclear receptor (NR) binding sites for a heterodimer of constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and retinoid X receptor (RXR). To examine potential interactions between NF-1 and CAR/RXR, binding of purified recombinant proteins to DNA, or to chromatin assembled using Drosophila embryo extract, was examined. NF-1 and CAR/RXR bound simultaneously and independently to the overlapping NF-1 and NR-1 sites; binding of CAR/RXR to the NR-2 site was modestly increased by NF-1 binding; and CAR/RXR bound to a new site in the PBRU region, designated NR-3. Assembly of plasmid DNA into chromatin using Drosophila extract resulted in linearly phased nucleosomes in the PBRU region. The apparent binding affinity of NF-1 was increased by about 10-fold in assembled chromatin compared with DNA, whereas CAR/RXR binding was decreased. As observed for DNA, however, simultaneous, largely independent, binding to the NF-1 and NR sites was observed. CAR-mediated transactivation of the PBRU in cultured cells of hepatic origin was inhibited by mutations in the NF-1 site, and overexpression of NF-1 increased CAR transactivation in HepG2 cells. These studies demonstrate that NF-1 and CAR/RXR can both bind to the PBRU at the same time and that chromatin assembly increases NF-1 binding, which is consistent with previous in vivo footprinting studies in which the NF-1 site was occupied in untreated animals and the NF-1 and flanking NR sites were occupied after phenobarbital treatment. CAR-mediated trans-activation of the PBRU was increased by NF-1, analogous to NF-1 effects on phenobarbital induction in previous transient transfection studies and consistent with mediation of phenobarbital induction by CAR. 相似文献

The estrogen receptor of MCF-7 cells labeled with high specific activity estradiol was used to mark the chromatin binding sites for this regulatory molecule. Many of these sites are especially sensitive to nuclease, and produce on digestion a series of uniquely sedimenting products. Several of these have been examined in some detail in this paper. These include a form of receptor that sediments in trace digests at 9S but in more extensive digests at 7S, fast mononucleosomes of about 12.5S, and a species at 15S. Two components of digests, fast mononucleosomes and dinucleosomes were isolated and subjected to further digestion. Much of the hormone on these isolated particles was found to be sensitive to additional hydrolysis, although some was nuclease resistant. It appears that a major fraction of the hormone receptor complexes bound to MCF-7 cell chromatin occurs at nucleosome-free regions which can be detected as transient hydrolysis intermediates. 相似文献

The intranuclear distribution of [3H]-estradiol binding sites was studied in highly purified nuclei isolated from calf endometrial tissue pre-incubated with the labeled hormone. The major part (approximately 85%) of the receptor bound estradiol was found associated with the extranucleolar chromatin; only a negligible amount of [3H]-estradiol (approximately 8%) sedimented with the nucleolar fraction. [3H]-estradiol labeled chromatin was then fragmented by sonication and fractionated by sucrose density gradient sedimentation under different conditions of centrifugation. The vast majority of the [3H]-estradiol was invariably found to be associated with a fast sedimenting fraction which contained only 5 to 10% of the nuclear DNA. The concentration of estradiol receptors (per weight of DNA) in this fraction was 25- to 50-fold higher than that found in the slow sedimenting major chromatin component. Chemical analysis showed this fraction to have a high protein/DNA ratio but no phospholipids were detected. 相似文献

In the immature rat uterus, high concentrations of androgens competed specifically with estradiol on the estrogen receptor (RE). This competition was stereospecific for C19 steroids bearing a 17β and/or 3 hydroxyl group. Very low affinity ligands, such as testosterone, could not compete with estradiol at equilibrium but decreased the association rate of estradiol on its receptor. High doses (> 0.4mg) of 5 α aihydrotestosterone provoked as the nuclear translocation of RE. The nuclear receptor thus formed displayed the same 5.2 S sedimentation constant as that induced by estradiol. We conclude that the weak affinity binding of androgens to the estrogen receptor is sufficient to induce its nuclear translocation provided androgen concentration is high enough in uterus to occupy the estradiol binding site. Conversely, progesterone which does not bind RE could not provoke its nuclear translocation. 相似文献

A stable analogue of prostacyclin, iloprost, specifically bound to 30,000 x g pellet (the membrane fraction) prepared from mouse mastocytoma P-815 cells. The binding was dependent on time, temperature and pH, and absolutely required a divalent cation. The equilibrium dissociation constant and the maximal concentration of the binding site as determined by Scatchard plot analysis were 10.4 nM and 1.12 pmol/mg of protein, respectively. The Hill coefficient was 1.0, indicating a single entity of binding site and no cooperativity. The binding site was highly specific for iloprost among PGs tested (iloprost much greater than PGE1 greater than carbacyclin greater than PGE2). In contrast, the membrane fraction had the binding site specific for PGE2 and PGE1, which was distinct from the prostacyclin receptor. The dissociation of bound [3H]iloprost from the membrane fraction was specifically enhanced by guanine nucleotides. Furthermore, iloprost dose-dependently enhanced the activity of adenylate cyclase in a GTP-dependent manner. These results indicate that a specific prostacyclin receptor is coupled to the adenylate cyclase system via a stimulatory GTP-binding protein in mastocytoma cells. 相似文献

The effect of estriol on the positive cooperativity of [3H]estradiol binding to the partially purified calf uterine estrogen receptor was investigated using the kinetic analysis of Sasson and Notides (J. biol. Chem. 257 1982, 11540). The receptor was titrated with variable concentrations of [3H]estradiol with or without estriol; the estriol was maintained in a constant molar ratio to the [3H]estradiol concentration. A 4-fold molar excess of estriol above the [3H]estradiol concentrations inhibited the receptor's cooperative [3H]estradiol binding. In the absence of estriol, the [3H]estradiol receptor interaction was highly cooperative, the Scatchard plot was convex and the Hill coefficient was 1.61 ± 0.02a. In the presence of sufficient estriol to reduce the maximally bound [3H]estradiol to 77%, the Scatchard plot was linear and the Hill coefficient was 1.04 ± 0.04. The inhibition of the cooperative [3H]estradiol binding by estriol was not due to isotope dilution of the specifically bound [3H]estradiol by the unlabeled estriol.These data demonstrate that the cooperative binding of 3H]estradiol by the receptor that is characteristic of the equilibrium between the two states of the receptor (active and nonactive) is eliminated by the presence of estriol. This finding is consistent with the agonist/antagonist activity of estriol observed in vivo. 相似文献

The localization and quantitative changes of estradiol receptor (ER) were studied by means of immunogold-electron microscope methods using a polyclonal antibody directed against an amino acid sequence representing the DNA binding site of ER, a monoclonal antibody against hnRNP core protein, and anti-DNA antibody. The uteri of normal rats in estrus and those of ovariectomized females were used. Ovariectomized rats were studied 21 days after surgery at different times after the injection of normal saline or estradiol-17 beta. The density of labeling was measured in interchromatin space, compact chromatin, nucleolus, cytoplasm, and background of epithelial cells, muscle cells, and fibroblasts. In the three types of cells ER was found mainly on extranucleolar ribonucleoprotein (RNP) fibrils. In epithelial and muscle cells the nucleolus was labeled but compact chromatin was not labeled. In epithelial cells there was a low but significant labeling of the cytoplasm. Fibroblasts exhibited a low labeling of the compact chromatin. Ovariectomy did not change these distributions. The estradiol injection increased labeling in all compartments of epithelial and muscle cells but decreased the labeling of compact chromatin of fibroblasts. These results show: (a) that ER is mainly nuclear but it is also present in the cytoplasm, (b) that ER binds to the nuclear particles containing newly synthesized RNA, and (c) that the binding to RNPs does not block the DNA binding domain of the ER. 相似文献
