Basic estrogen receptor (ER) molecule (vero-ER) of the cytosol of porcine uterus was purified 1,200-fold after successive chromatographies on phenyl-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite, and DEAE-cellulose, followed by Sephadex G-150 gel filtration. The purified vero-ER was completely free from endogenous protease and ER-binding factor. The action of Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteinase (calpain) on vero-ER was studied by utilizing the purified receptor and calpains from porcine uterus (endogenous calpain), porcine kidney, and human erythrocytes. Proteolysis of vero-ER was followed by monitoring the disappearance of the binding capability of vero-ER with "8S" ER-forming factor. Vero-ER was proteolyzed by both the endogenous and the exogenous calpains in the presence of Ca2+. The calpains did not attack vero-ER in the absence of Ca2+. The results indicated the absolute requirement by calpain for Ca2+ for the limited hydrolysis of vero-ER. Uterine cytosol was shown to contain, in parallel with calpain, a protease which does not require Ca2+ for the limited proteolysis of vero-ER. The strongly hydrophobic domain of vero-ER, recently shown to be indispensable for the nuclear translocation of vero-ER (Murayama, A. & Fukai, F. (1983) FEBS Lett. 158, 255), was preferentially destroyed by both the Ca2+-requiring and -nonrequiring enzymes. It was assumed that calpain might intervene in the estrogen action by diminishing irreversibly the amount of the cytoplasmic ER capable of translocating into the nucleus. 相似文献

Exposure at 40°C of low salt calf uterine cytosol leads to the “transformation” of the estradiol-receptor complexes in 5 min, immediately followed by the formation of thermostable > 12 S “aggregated” receptor forms. Molybdate prevents this phenomenon but does not reverse it. Molybdate has a protective effect against thermal inactivation of the 9 S non-aggregated form of the receptor in the absence of hormone. In the presence of molybdate, the inactivation rate of this 9 S receptor is the same with and without hormone, and follows a first order reaction (). The biphasic kinetics of thermo-inactivation of estradiol-receptor complexes is ascribable to the relative amounts of non-aggregated and aggregated forms. 相似文献

A low concentration estrogen-derivatized affinity resin has been used in a rapid, single step purification of the untransformed estrogen receptor from calf uterine cytosols prepared without sodium molybdata. The procedure isolates the Mr 65,000 estrogen receptor in association with the bovine heat shock protein hsp90. Small amounts of proteolyzed receptor ranging in size from Mr 50,000 to 60,000 are also present in the purified extracts. Results from affinity chromatography of receptor cytosols either untreated or presaturated with estradiol suggest that two proteins of Mr 22,000 and 38,000 are co-purified with the untransformed receptor complex and may represent additional nonhormone-binding components of the native receptor form. Some indication of the stability of protein-protein interactions within the oligomeric complex has been derived from differential salt elution studies with heparin-sepharose and affinity gel-immobilized untransformed receptor. On size exclusion high performance liquid chromatography the untransformed complex eluted with a Stokes radius of 75 +/- 2 A (n = 18), but was shown to be sensitive to extended ultracentrifugal analysis dissociating to the receptor homodimer, sedimentation coefficient 5.3 +/- 0.3 s (n = 5). Preliminary data on urea- and heat-induced transformation of the isolated receptor to the DNA-binding state is presented. 相似文献

Effect of the antiprogestin RU-486 on progesterone inhibition of occupied nuclear estrogen receptor in the uterus 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The ability of the antiprogestin, RU-486, to reverse progesterone (P) antagonism of occupied nuclear E receptor retention was studied in the rat and hamster uterus. RU-486 was shown to effectively displace [3H]P binding from rat uterine cytosolic P receptor in in vitro competition assay. In contrast, no competition by RU-486 for [3H]P binding was observed for uterine cytosolic P receptor from the hamster uterus. In the presence of sustained serum levels (silastic implants) of P and estradiol (E), occupied nuclear E receptor was significantly inhibited in the rat uterus. At 6, 12 and 24h after RU-486 treatment (5 mg/animal, s.c.) uterine receptors for E and P were determined. No significant differences in cytosolic E and P receptors were observed between treated (E + P, + RU-486) and control (E + P alone) animals. However, by 6 h following RU-486 treatment, occupied nuclear E receptor retention increased significantly (0.30 +/- 0.05 vs 0.60 +/- 0.09, pmol/uterus) and reached a peak between 12 h (1.32 +/- 0.09) and 24 h (0.83 +/- 0.09). The increase in nuclear E receptor approached the level observed in animals with an E implant alone (1.55 +/- 0.15). Measurement of uterine fluid accumulation following RU-486 treatment showed an increase which paralleled that observed for occupied nuclear E receptor retention. A similar in vivo experiment in the hamster showed no reversal of P inhibition of occupied nuclear E receptor. These results show that: 1. RU-486 is an effective competitor for rat uterine P receptor but not hamster P receptor; 2. RU-486 can rapidly reverse P inhibition of uterine occupied nuclear E receptor in the presence of sustained serum levels of E and P; 3. The recovery of occupied nuclear E receptor is coincident with a resumption of E action (uterine fluid accumulation). The studies also provide a novel means by which antiprogestin activity can be assessed in vivo in the presence of sustained E and P serum levels, e.g. the reversal of P inhibition of uterine nuclear E receptor retention. 相似文献

The steroid-binding core of estradiol receptor was purified from pig uterus cytosol by a protocol consisting of (1) adsorption to heparin-sepharose, (2) enzymatic release of the receptor core, (3) DEAE-chromatography, (4) Sephadex G-150 filtration and (5) chromatography on heparin-sepharose. The final product was approximately 18000-fold enriched over the starting material. It consisted of at least 18% core protein resembling dimeric microsomal receptor with a molecular mass of 75 kDa and an isoelectric point of 5.8 (microheterogeneity). A goat antiserum raised against the preparation contains immunoglobulins G precipitating estradiol-receptor complexes, and antibodies releasing the steroid from its binding site. 相似文献

We have cloned the chicken estrogen receptor (ER) from a chicken oviduct lambda gt11 library using the human ER cDNA sequence. This chicken ER sequence is virtually identical to the recently published sequence. One noteable difference is an amino acid change from glutamine to arginine located toward the central region of the sequence. The size of the ER protein predicted from the 589 amino acids is approximately 66,000 which fits well with the range of molecular weights previously published for the calf uterine and human ER (65,000-70,000). We observed the size of the chicken ER mRNA to be approximately 7.8 kilobases which is in agreement with the previously published size of 7.5 kilobases. In vivo secondary stimulation of chicken oviduct total RNA with diethylstilbestrol does not induce chicken ER mRNA. A time course following the chicken ER mRNA levels after secondary stimulation with diethylstilbestrol indicated a decrease in mRNA levels 8 h after DES administration. A similar study was performed using progesterone for the secondary stimulation. An increase in the chicken ER mRNA levels was observed 24 h after stimulation with progesterone. Two regions of very high homology were delineated by analyzing the sequence of this chicken ER cDNA and comparing it to the sequences of the human ER, human glucocorticoid, and chicken progesterone receptors and the P75-erbA fusion product of the avian erythroblastosis virus. The first concensus region is 72 amino acids in length and the second region of high homology is 62 amino acids long. Detailed comparisons of these regions for the steroid hormone receptors and v-erb A are presented. Possible functions for the individual regions of high homology are discussed. 相似文献

For the purpose of characterizing the estrogen binding domain of porcine estrogen receptor (ER), we have made use of affinity labeling of partially purified ER with [3H]tamoxifen aziridine. The labeling is very efficient and selective particularly after partial purification of ER. A 65,000-dalton (65-kDa) band was detected on the fluorogram of a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel, together with a 50-kDa band and a few more smaller bands. The 50-kDa protein appears to be a degradation product of the 65-kDa protein in view of the similar peptide map. ER was affinity labeled before or after controlled limited proteolysis with either trypsin, papain, or alpha-chymotrypsin. The labeling patterns of limited digests indicate that a fragment of about 30 kDa is relatively resistant to proteases and has a full and specific binding activity to estrogen, whereas smaller fragments have lost much of the binding activity. This fragment is very hydrophobic and probably corresponds to the carboxy half of ER. 相似文献

Interaction of estrogen receptor of calf uterus with a monoclonal antibody: probing of various molecular forms 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A monoclonal antibody to estrogen receptor (JS34/32) is able to recognize, in the calf uterine cytosol, a protein (approximately 65 000 daltons) giving a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Two molecules of this antibody are able to simultaneously interact with the native 8S form of the receptor present in the calf uterine cytosol ("twin antibody" assay). This indicates the presence of two antigenic determinants on the "low-salt" 8S form of the receptor. This form of the receptor shows an increase in Mr from 345 000 to 665 000 after interaction with the soluble antibody. Dissociating agents that induce the dissociation of the 8S form to smaller forms also induce the dissociation of the two antigenic determinants. The 4S "high-salt" form of the estrogen receptor has one determinant per molecule, appearing to be the smallest form of the receptor not containing repetitive structures associated with the steroid binding site. The nuclear receptor also shows the presence of more than one antigenic determinant on its molecule. 相似文献

Purification of the receptor for platelet-derived growth factor from porcine uterus 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

The receptor for platelet-derived growth factor has been purified to homogeneity on a large scale from porcine uterus. The purification procedure utilizes solubilization of uterus membranes by Triton X-100, followed by sequential chromatographies on wheat germ agglutinin-Sepharose, fast protein liquid chromatography Mono-Q, and anti-phosphotyrosine-Sepharose. About 160 micrograms of homogeneous and functionally active 170-kDa receptor could be purified from 5 kg of uterus tissue. The pure receptor responded to platelet-derived growth factor stimulation by autophosphorylation, indicating that the receptor has a kinase domain as an integral part of the molecule. A rabbit antiserum was produced against the pure receptor, which specifically recognizes the intact 170-kDa receptor. 相似文献

Micromolar concentrations of the proteinase inhibitor, aprotinin, produced a dose-dependent inhibition in the binding capacity of the estrogen receptor from calf uterus. Aprotinin inhibition was greater at 28 degrees C than at 4 degrees C and only occurred when conditions allowed the receptor transformation. When aprotinin was tested in the presence of transformation inhibitors, its effect was no longer seen. The binding capacity of the highly purified estrogen-binding subunit was similarly inhibited. 相似文献

Ipriflavone, 7-isopropoxy-3-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one, was uterotropic in intact but not in ovariectomized rats. When it was administered simultaneously with estrone and estradiol-17 beta to ovariectomized rats, ipriflavone increased the uterotropic activities of both estrogens. The uterotropic activity of this compound in intact rats might be attributable to its action on the target organ of estrogen by augmenting the response to the hormone because none of the other possibilities for accelerating uterine growth such as gonadotropin-releasing, gonadotropic, and estrogen metabolism-retarding activities were demonstrated experimentally. In addition, ipriflavone increased the calcitonin releasing activity of estrone when these compounds were administered simultaneously to ovariectomized rats. 相似文献

Estrogen sulfotransferase (EST) is a progesterone (Pg) induced secretory endometrial enzyme which may effect estrogen receptor levels by esterifying estradiol-17 beta (E2) to an inactive, sulfate form. The effects of this enzyme were studied using specific inhibitors of EST that do not bind to estrogen receptor (ER): 4-nitroestrone 3-methyl ether and 4-fluoroestrone 3-methyl ether. A 1 h pulse with 4 nM E2 caused ERn (i.e. E2-bound, chromatin-bound receptor) to increase 40% in incubations of proliferative gilt endometrium (no EST activity), while the same E2 treatment of secretory endometrium (high EST activity) caused no increase in ERn. ERn accumulation was completely restored in these experiments by preincubating secretory endometrium with 4 microM 4-fluoroestrone 3-methyl ether. Gilt endometrial explants cultured 7 days with 1 nM E2 plus 1 microM Pg (which induced EST activity) possessed half the ERn as explants devoid of EST activity which were cultured in E2 alone. The addition of 10 microM 4-nitroestrone 3-methyl ester to the cultures of secretory endometrium restored ERn to the levels seen in minces cultured with E2 alone. Furthermore, ovariectomized gilts injected daily with 250 micrograms E2 plus 25 mg Pg had much lower ERn (0.06 fmol/micrograms DNA) than gilts injected with E2 only (0.21 fmol/microgram DNA). ERn was restored completely by supplementing the E2 plus Pg injections with 0.5 g 4-nitroestrone 3-methyl ether administered by vaginal suppositories.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Several distinct molecular forms of glucocorticoid receptor have been identified in a melanoma model system. We have used velocity sedimentation to monitor molybdate dependent alterations in receptor size and heterogeneity. In the absence of molybdate, native glucocorticoid receptor from dexamethasone-sensitive tumors sediments at 7–8 S and 12–13 S. Under identical conditions, receptor isolated from dexamethasone-resistant tumors sediments at 7–8 S only. However, when molybdate is introduced, either during homogenization or immediately prior to centrifugation, glucocorticoid receptors from both dexamethasone-sensitive and -resistant tumors sediment sharply at 9–10 S. These molybdate induced phenomena are reversible. The activated forms of glucocorticoid receptor isolated from both dexamethasone-sensitive and -resistant tumors by DEAE-cellulose chromatography have similar sedimentation coefficients (4–5 S) which are unaffected by molybdate. 相似文献
