Binding characteristics of synthetic steroid, mifepristone (RU38486 - also referred to as RU486), were examined in cytosol prepared from the chick oviduct and the calf uterus, and were compared with those of progesterone and synthetic progestin R5020. Unlike [3H]progesterone binding, the [3H]RU486 binding in the oviduct cytosol did not saturate at 50 nM ligand concentration. The [3H]progesterone binding could not be eliminated in the presence of excess RU486, and [3H]RU486 binding was seen to be indisplaceable upon pretreatment of the chick oviduct cytosol with a 1000-fold excess progesterone. It is apparent that the chick oviduct cytosol is endowed with two separate sets of sites which interact with progesterone and RU486 independently. Furthermore, [3H]RU486 binding in the chick oviduct cytosol remained intact when incubated for 60 min at 37°C; it exhibited a single ionic form upon elution from DEAE-Sephacel and the [3H]RU486-associated radioactivity sedimented in the 4 S region both in salt-free and 0.3 M KCl-containing 5–20% sucrose gradients. In the calf uterus cytosol, both steroids exhibited comparable binding profiles. Our results provide evidence that chick oviduct possesses distinct binding sites that accept either progesterone or RU486, but not both, as is the case in the calf uterus. 相似文献

ZK98299, a novel antiprogesterone that does not interact with chicken oviduct progesterone receptor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Steroid antagonists, at receptor level, are valuable tools for elucidating the mechanism of steroid hormone action. We have examined and compared the interaction of avian and mammalian progesterone receptors with progestins; progesterone and R5020, and a newly synthesized antiprogesterone ZK98299. In the chicken oviduct cytosol, [3H]R5020 binding to macromolecule(s) could be eliminated with prior incubation of cytosol with excess radioinert steroids progesterone or R5020 but not ZK98299. Alternatively, [3H]ZK98299 binding in the chicken oviduct was not abolished in the presence of excess progesterone, R5020, or ZK98299. In the calf uterine cytosol, [3H]R5020 or [3H]ZK98299 binding was competeable with progesterone, R5020 and ZK98299 but not estradiol, DHT or cortisol. Furthermore, immunoprecipitation and protein A-Sepharose adsorption analysis revealed that in the calf uterine cytosol, the [3H]R5020-receptor complexes were recognized by anti-progesterone receptor monoclonal antibody PR6. This antibody, however, did not recognize [3H]ZK98299-receptor complexes. When phosphorylation of progesterone receptor was attempted in the chicken oviduct mince, presence of progesterone resulted in an increased phosphorylation of the known components A (79 kDa) and B (110 kDa) receptor proteins. Presence of ZK98299 neither enhanced the extent of phosphorylation of A and B proteins nor did it reverse the progesterone-dependent increase in the phosphorylation. The avian progesterone receptor, therefore, has unique steroid binding site(s) that exclude(s) interaction with ZK98299. The lack of immunorecognition of calf uterine [3H]ZK98299-receptor complexes, suggests that ZK98299 is either interacting with macromolecule(s) other than the progesterone receptor or with another site on the same protein. Alternatively, the antisteroid binds to the R5020 binding site but the complex adopts a conformation that is not recognized by the PRG antibodies. 相似文献

The glucocorticosteroid receptor (GR) has been studied in oviduct cytosol prepared from estrogen-primed, 4-week-withdrawn chicken. The equilibrium dissociation constant was 6 nM for dexamethasone, and 18 300 receptor sites/cell were measured assuming that all cells contain identical concentrations of GR. Dexamethasone, used in most studies investigating glucocorticosteroid action, was found not to be the best GR ligand. The affinities of several natural and synthetic glucocorticosteroids for GR increased in the following order: cortisol less than deoxycorticosterone less than dexamethasone less than corticosterone less than triamcinolone acetonide. The synthetic steroid RU 486 was the most specific ligand of GR (its affinity was approximately equal to 10-fold higher than that of triamcinolone acetonide), while it did not bind either to plasma transcortin (which binds dexamethasone nor, surprisingly, to progesterone receptor (PR), contrary to what occurs in mammalian species. The molybdate-stabilized, 8-S form of GR was prepared from withdrawn chick oviduct, whole chick embryo or cultured chick embryo fibroblasts (which do not contain PR), and was labeled with either [3H]dexamethasone or [3H]RU 486. The sedimentation coefficient of radioactive ligand--8-S GR complexes was shifted towards heavier forms after incubation with polyclonal (IgG-G3) or monoclonal (BF4) antibodies generated against the molybdate-stabilized, 8-S form of the chick oviduct PR. Since neither IgG-G3 nor BF4 interacted with the steroid binding 4-S form of GR, it is suggested that these antibodies recognized a non-steroid binding protein common to molybdate-stabilized, 8-S forms of GR and PR. 相似文献

Transformation of calf uterine progesterone receptor: analysis of the process when receptor is bound to progesterone and RU38486 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Effects of different transforming agents were examined on the sedimentation characteristics of calf uterine progesterone receptor (PR) bound to the synthetic progestin [3H]R5020 or the known progesterone antagonist [3H]RU38486 (RU486). [3H]R5020-receptor complexes [progesterone-receptor complexes (PRc)] sedimented as fast migrating 8S moieties in 8-30% linear glycerol gradients containing 0.15 M KCl and 20 mM Na2MoO4. Incubation of cytosol containing [3H]PRc at 23 degrees C for 10-60 min, or at 0 degrees C with 0.15-0.3 M KCl or 1-10 mM ATP, caused a gradual transformation of PRc to a slow sedimenting 4S form. This 8S to 4S transformation was molybdate sensitive. In contrast, the [3H]RU486-receptor complex exhibited only the 8S form. Treatment with all three activation agents caused a decrease in the 8S form but no concomitant transformation of the [3H]RU486-receptor complex into the 4S form. PR in the calf uterine cytosol incubated at 23 or at 0 degrees C with 0.3 M KCl or 10 mM ATP could be subsequently complexed with [3H]R5020 to yield the 4S form of PR. However, the cytosol PR transformed in the absence of any added ligand failed to bind [3H]RU486. Heat treatment of both [3H]R5020- and [3H]RU486-receptor complexes caused an increase in DNA-cellulose binding, although the extent of this binding was lower when RU486 was bound to receptors. An aqueous two-phase partitioning analysis revealed a significant change in the surface properties of PR following both binding to ligand and subsequent transformation. The partition coefficient (Kobsd) of the heat-transformed [3H]R5020-receptor complex increased about 5-fold over that observed with PR at 0 degrees C.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Characterization of R5020 and RU486 binding to progesterone receptor from calf uterus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have examined and compared the binding characteristics of the progesterone agonist R5020 [promegestone, 17,21-dimethylpregna-4,9(10)-diene-3,20-dione] and the progesterone antagonist RU486 [mifepristone, 17 beta-hydroxy-11 beta-[4-(dimethylamino) phenyl]-17 alpha-(prop-1-ynyl)-estra-4,9-dien-3-one] in calf uterine cytosol. Both steroids bound cytosol macromolecule(s) with high affinity, exhibiting Kd values of 5.6 and 3.6 nM for R5020 and RU486 binding, respectively. The binding of the steroids to the macromolecule(s) was rapid at 4 degrees C, showing saturation of binding sites at 1-2 h for [3H]progesterone and 2-4 h for both [3H]R5020 and [3H]RU486. Addition of molybdate and glycerol to cytosol increased the extent of [3H]R5020 binding. The extent of [3H]RU486 binding remained unchanged in the presence of molybdate, whereas glycerol had an inhibitory effect. Molybdate alone or in combination with glycerol stabilized the [3H]R5020- and [3H]RU486-receptor complexes at 37 degrees C. Although the rate of association of [3H]RU486 with the cytosolic macromolecule was slower than that of [3H]R5020, its dissociation from the ligand-macromolecule complex was significantly slower than [3H]R5020. Competitive steroid binding analysis revealed that [3H]progesterone, [3H]R5020, and [3H]RU486 compete for the same site(s) in the uterine cytosol, suggesting that all three bind to the progesterone receptor (PR). Sedimentation rate analysis showed that both steroids were bound to a molecule that sediments in the 8S region. The 8S [3H]R5020 and [3H]RU486 peaks were abolished by excess radioinert progesterone, RU486, or R5020.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The physicochemical properties of complexes formed between the glucocorticoid antagonist, RU38486, and the glucocorticoid receptor in rat thymus cytosol were investigated and compared with those of complexes formed with the potent agonist, triamcinolone acetonide. The equilibrium dissociation constant for the interaction of [3H]RU38486 with the molybdate-stabilized glucocorticoid receptor was lower than that for [1,2,4-3H]triamcinolone acetonide at 0 degree C but higher at 25 degrees C, suggesting that hydrophobic interactions play a major role in the binding of RU38486. Differences in equilibrium constants were reflected in corresponding differences in dissociation rate constants; association rate constants for the two steroids were similar. The rate of dissociation of [3H]RU38486 from the glucocorticoid receptor was higher in the absence of molybdate than in its presence both at 0 degree C and at 25 degrees C, suggesting that molybdate modifies the physical state of the antagonist-receptor complex, but other physical properties were similar both in the presence and in the absence of molybdate. The rate of inactivation of the unoccupied glucocorticoid receptor at 25 degrees C in the absence of molybdate was lower in phosphate buffer than in Tris-HCl buffer but the rate of dissociation of [3H]RU38486 was the same in both buffers. The binding of RU38486 afforded little, if any, protection against inactivation in either buffer; [3H]RU38486 dissociated irreversibly from the inactivated receptor at the same rate as from the non-inactivated complex but molybdate had no effect on the dissociation kinetics of the inactivated complex. It is concluded that RU38486 interacts with the ground state of the glucocorticoid receptor in a manner which neither promotes receptor transformation nor prevents receptor inactivation. 相似文献

We have examined steroid binding parameters and transformation of calf uterine progesterone receptor (PR) liganded with progestins (progesterone and R5020) and the newly synthesized antiprogestins (Org 31806 and 31710). Species specificity analysis indicated that [3H]R5020 binding in the chicken oviduct cytosol could be eliminated in the presence of 100-fold excess radioinert progesterone and R5020 but not Org 31806 and 31710. In the calf uterine cytosol, the progestins and the antiprogestins appeared to interact with the same PR as revealed by the displacement of [3H]R5020 by all of the above steroids. When the extent of [3H]R5020 binding was examined in the presence of different concentrations of radioinert steroids, the relative affinity with which these compounds interacted with the uterine PR was found to be comparable. A 23 degrees C incubation of cytosol transformed the progestin-bound PR complexes increasing their binding to DNA-cellulose from 5 (0 degrees C, nontransformed) to 35%. Under these conditions, 20% Org 31710- and RU486-occupied PR complexes bound to DNA-cellulose whereas only 10% Org 31806-receptor complexes were retained by the resin. Transformation (23 degrees C) of cytosol receptor caused a loss of the larger 8 S form and an increase in the smaller 4 S form. In its unliganded state or when it was complexed with R5020 or the antiprogestins, incubation of PR at 23 degrees C led to dissociation of the receptor-associated 90 kDa heat-shock protein (hsp90). The PR-hsp90 association was stabilized in the presence of 10 mM iodoacetamide when the ligand binding site was occupied by Org 31806 and 31710. The R5020-receptor complexes, however, allowed release of hsp90 under the above transforming conditions. Our results indicate that although Org 31806 and 31710 show no affinity for the avian PR, these steroids interact with the mammalian PR. We propose that the reported antiprogestational effects of Org 31806 and 31710 are mediated via their interaction with PR which appears similar to one that exists between PR and RU486. 相似文献

Modulation of calf uterine progesterone receptor (PR), in relation to its binding to synthetic steroids with known agonist (R5020) and antagonist (RU486) properties, was studied in the presence of iodoacetamide (IA), N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), beta-mercaptoethanol (MER), and dithiothreitol (DTT). Pretreatment of uterine cytosol at 4 degrees C with NEM (4-10 mM) reduced the binding of [3H]RU486 to PR by 40%, but [3H] R5020 binding was completely abolished. Whereas IA (2-10 mM) treatment did not affect [3H]RU486 binding, [3H]R5020 binding was totally eliminated. DTT or MER increased the binding of both steroids slightly (15%). [3H]R5020- or [3H]RU486-receptor complexes (Rc) migrated in the 8 S region and were eliminated upon pretreatment with NEM. At 23 degrees C, DTT increased the amount of 4 S [3H]R5020-Rc, but had no effect on the [3H]RU486-Rc. In the control, [3H]RU486 binding to the 8 S PR could be competed with radioinert R5020 or RU486, but R5020 failed to compete in the presence of IA. The heat-treated [3H]R5020- and [3H]RU486-Rc showed reduced binding to DNA-cellulose in the presence of NEM and IA. The results of our study suggest that SH group modifications differentially influence the properties of mammalian PR complexed with either R5020 or RU486. In the presence of IA, the [3H]RU486-Rc remained in the 8 S form when incubated at 23 degrees C, indicating that RU486 binding causes conformational changes in PR which are distinct from those that result upon R5020 binding. 相似文献

Evidence for two structurally related progesterone receptors in chick oviduct cytosol 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The existence of two progesterone receptor forms present in crude cytosol of chick oviduct has been demonstrated by photoaffinity labelling using [3H]R5020. On SDS-polyacrylamide gels these two forms exhibit app. Mr-values of 79000 and 109000 corresponding to the progesterone receptor forms A and B. Peptide maps of photoaffinity-labelled steroid receptors have been established by limited proteolysis with alpha-chymotrypsin. The peptide map obtained for chick oviduct cytosol progesterone receptor crosslinked with [3H]R5020 proved to be the sum of peptides obtained from partially purified preparations of forms A and B. The peptide maps of both progesterone receptor forms were identical for peptides below the Mr-value of form A, indicating extensive homology of the two forms. A significantly different peptide pattern was observed for the rat liver glucocorticoid receptor crosslinked with [3H]triamcinolone acetonide. Prolonged proteolysis with chymotrypsin gave rise to peptides with Mr-values of 6000 and 10000 from the hormone-binding domain of progesterone and glucocorticoid receptors, respectively. 相似文献

The data reported here demonstrate that the synthetic steroid RU 38486 functions as an optimal antagonist in the glucocorticoid-sensitive human leukemic cell line CEM-C7. This steroid blocks the ability of the potent agonist triamcinolone acetonide (TA) to induce glutamine synthetase activity and to ultimately cause cell lysis, but when given alone does not exhibit partial agonist activity. Both [3H]RU 38486 and [3H]TA bind with high affinity and specificity to cytosolic glucocorticoid receptors in this cell line. However, under a variety of in vitro conditions (elevated temperature and presence of exogenous ATP), [3H]TA promotes receptor activation more effectively than [3H]RU 38486. This difference in the extent of activation was verified by two independent techniques: DEAE-cellulose chromatography and DNA-cellulose binding. [3H]RU 38486 and [3H]TA dissociate at the same rate from the unactivated receptors but at 25 degrees C (not 0 degree C) [3H]RU 38486 dissociates slightly more rapidly from the activated receptors. The defective receptors in the glucocorticoid-resistant subclone 3R7 appear to be "activation labile" (rapid dissociation of ligand from activated form) using either tritiated steroid. Once activated in vivo, the CEM-C7 [3H]TA- and [3H]RU 38486-receptor complexes undergo similar nuclear translocation and those activated complexes generated in vitro appear to bind to nonspecific DNA-cellulose with the same relative affinities. Thus the precise mechanism(s) by which RU 38486 exerts its potent antiglucocorticoid effect in this human cell line cannot be easily explained in terms of a defect in one of the crucial steps (specific high affinity binding, activation, translocation, DNA binding) required to elicit a physiological response. However, the data presented here do suggest that when comparing an antagonist and agonist which both bind to receptors with the same relative high affinity, the agonist may be more effective in facilitating the conformational change associated with in vitro activation. 相似文献

The non-transformed, molybdate-stabilized chick oviduct cytosol progesterone receptor was purified approx. 7000-fold using biospecific affinity resin (NADAC-Sepharose), DEAE-Sephacel chromatography and gel filtration on Bio-Gel A-0.5m agarose. The purified preparation contained progesterone receptor which sedimented as a 7.9S molecule, had a Stokes' radius of 7.5 nm, was composed of three major peptides corresponding to Mr 108,000, 90,000 and 79,000. Upon removal of molybdate, the purified [3H]progesterone-receptor complex could be transformed from the 8S form to a 4S form by exposure to 23 degrees C or by an incubation with 10 mM ATP at 0 degrees C. The purified thermally transformed receptor could be adsorbed to columns of ATP-Sepharose. No cytosol factor(s) appeared to be required for the 8S to 4S transformation of purified receptor or for its subsequent binding to ATP-Sepharose. Incubation of purified non-transformed receptor preparation with [gamma-32P]ATP and cAMP-dependent protein kinase led to incorporation of radioactivity in all the three major peptides at serine residues. The results of this study show for the first time that purified 8S progesterone receptor can be phosphorylated in vitro by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and that it can be transformed to a 4S form by 0 degrees C incubation with 10 mM ATP. 相似文献

Oestrogen-primed and withdrawn chicks were injected with oestradiol benzoate, progesterone, and/or the anti-oestrogens tamoxifen and 4-hydroxytamoxifen. Oestrogen receptors were studied in oviduct chromatin solubilized by mild digestion of purified nuclei with micrococcal nuclease. After a single injection of oestradiol benzoate, ultracentrifugation on sucrose gradients of chromatin extracts labelled with [3H]-oestradiol showed two peaks of oestradiol binding sites, sedimenting at 13--14 S and 7--8 S. After repeated injections of oestradiol benzoate, the 13--14 S peak increased more than the 7--8 S peak. After injection of anti-oestrogen alone or together with oestradiol benzoate, no [3H]oestradiol-binding or 4-hydroxy[3H]tamoxifen-binding peaks were detected in the chromatin. Injection of progesterone also produced an increase of the 13--14 S and 7--8 S chromatin oestradiol receptor. Progesterone receptor could only by detected in chromatin early after progesterone administration, and it sedimented in density gradients with the 12 S mononucleosome fraction. Tamoxifen injected together with progesterone gave higher levels of 13--14 S oestrogen binding sites than did progesterone alone. The presence of a 13--14 S peak of oestrogen binding sites in hormonal situations which promote a biological response in the chick oviduct, and the absence of this peak after administration of anti-oestrogens, suggest that this subfraction of chromatin contains elements involved in gene regulation. 相似文献

The effect of progesterone on the differentiation of the 3T3-L1 preadipocytes was investigated and compared with other sex steroids (estradiol and testosterone), with cortisol, with the synthetic progestin R5020 and with the progestin/glucocorticoid antagonist RU38486. At 10−8 M, progesterone stimulated the activity of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and triglyceride deposition. Progesterone, R5020, cortisol, and RU38486 increased triglycerides about 2-fold at 10−7 M. Only minimal effects were observed with testosterone and estradiol even at 10−6 M. When the cells were cultured in presence of 10−5 M metyrapone the effect of progesterone was unchanged, suggesting that the progesterone was not metabolized to a glucocorticoid. Progesterone, R5020 and RU38486 competed efficiently with [3H]dexamethasone for the glucocorticoid receptor in 3T3-L1 cytosol. These results indicate a significant, reproducible dose-dependent effect of progestins on differentiation of the preadipocytes, which appears to be mediated via the glucocorticoid receptor. 相似文献

The chicken oviduct androgen receptor was characterized by sucrose density gradient centrifugation, Scatchard analysis, competition studies, and affinity labeled with dihydrotestosterone 17 beta-bromoacetate. A specific 8.5 S peak was seen on 0.01 M KCl sucrose density gradients when the receptor was labeled with [3H]5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone. Specific 4.6 S peaks were seen when receptor labeled with [3H]5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone or [3H]dihydrotestosterone 17 beta-bromoacetate was analyzed on 0.3 M KCl sucrose density gradients. Scatchard analysis of [3H]5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone binding by oviduct cytosol was consistent with two binding sites. A Kd of 0.13 nM was found for the high affinity androgen receptor. Competition studies showed the following order of ligand affinity: 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone greater than dihydrotestosterone 17 beta-bromoacetate greater than progesterone greater than estradiol. A 61.2 kDa protein was specifically covalently labeled with [3H]dihydrotestosterone 17 beta-bromoacetate. The chicken oviduct androgen receptor possesses characteristics similar to other androgen receptors, and provides a good source of androgen receptor for physicochemical studies of the native receptor protein. 相似文献

Antibodies against highly purified B-subunit of the chick oviduct progesterone receptor 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

A rabbit was immunized with the highly purified B-subunit (110kDa) (20 to 50 micrograms per injection) of the chick oviduct progesterone receptor (PR). Specific antibodies (IgG-RB) were observed 2 weeks after the first booster injection and high antibody titers in the serum were found after the second and third booster injections (with Kdeq of interaction integral of 2 nM). IgG-RB were tested by immunoprecipitation, immunoblotting, density gradient ultracentrifugation and protein A-sepharose assay methods. They recognized not only the B-subunit but also the A-subunit (79K), the nuclear PR, the mero-receptor (proteolytic cleavage product) and the "non-activated" molybdate-stabilized "8S" PR. However, IgG-RB did not interact with the 90K non hormone-binding component of this 8S-PR. IgG-RB did not affect the binding of the hormone to PR, whether incubated with the receptor before or after labelling with tritiated progesterone. They did not cross-react with glucocorticosteroid receptor of the chick oviduct. Weak interaction was observed with estrogen receptor of the chick oviduct and with KC1 activated "4S" forms of the rabbit and human uterus PR. 相似文献

The synthetic antiglucocorticoid RU 38486 interacts with cardiac cytoplasmic glucocorticoid receptors and competes for in vitro binding with the potent agonist triamcinolone acetonide. In addition to binding to receptors with high affinity, RU 38486 also facilitates the in vitro conformational change in the receptor which is a consequence of the physiologically relevant activation step during which the receptor is converted from a non DNA- to a DNA-binding form. This ability of RU 38486 to promote receptor activation is reflected by both the appropriate shift in the elution profile of [3H]RU 38486-receptor complexes from DEAE-cellulose as well as by an increased binding of these complexes to DNA-cellulose. Although less effective than triamcinolone acetonide, RU 38486 promotes in vitro receptor activation under a variety of experimental conditions, including incubation of labeled cardiac cytosols at 25 degrees C for 30 min or at 15 degrees C for 30 min in the presence of 5 mM pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. Once thermally activated, the cardiac [3H]triamcinolone acetonide and [3H]RU 38486-receptor complexes bind to nonspecific DNA-cellulose with the same relative affinities, as evidenced by the fact that 50% of both activated complexes are eluted at approx. 215-250 mM NaCl. Thus, this pure antiglucocorticoid does promote, at least to some extent, many of the crucial in vitro events including high-affinity binding, activation, and DNA binding which have been shown to be required to elicit a physiological response in vivo. 相似文献

In order to understand the molecular basis for antiprogestin action, we have compared the interaction of the antiprogestin [3H]RU38, 486 (RU486) and the progestin [3H]R5020 with the progesterone receptor (PR). In both MCF-7 and T47D human breast cancer cells, we have observed marked differences in the sedimentation properties of the PR on high salt sucrose gradients: while the R5020-receptor complexes sediment at approximately 4 S (4.4 +/- 0.1 S), the RU486-receptor sediments as a prominent 6 S species as well as a 4 S species. This binding is abolished by excess unlabelled R5020, RU486 or progesterone, but is unaffected by excess unlabelled hydrocortisone or dexamethasone, indicating that both the 4 S and 6 S species represent the PR and not glucocorticoid receptor. Although the relative distribution of 4 S and 6 S forms is not altered by treatment with DNAse or RNAse, exposure to 10 mM thioglycerol or to 3 M urea results in conversion of the 6 S to the 4 S form, suggesting that disulfide bonds and hydrophobic interactions are important in maintaining the integrity of the 6 S form. These findings suggest that the 6 S antiprogestin complex is formed as a result of the interaction of PR units with each other or with a different protein. This change in receptor association state may be an important aspect of the antiprogestin activity of RU486. 相似文献

Purification by affinity chromatography and immunological characterization of a 110kDa component of the chick oviduct progesterone receptor. 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4

A 110kDa component of the chick oviduct progesterone receptor (PR) has been purified to homogeneity according to electrophoretic criteria and specific activity (assuming one progestagen-binding site/110kDa). The procedure involved affinity chromatography of 0.3 M-KCl-prepared cytosol, followed by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography (elution at 0.2 M-KCl). The final yield was about 12% in terms of binding activity. Properties of the 110kDa component indicate that it is identical with the 'B' subunit described previously [Stokes radius approximately 6.1 nm; sedimentation coefficient, (S20, w) approximately 4S; frictional ratio approximately 1.77]. It reacted with the IgG-G3 polyclonal antibody, but not with BF4 monoclonal antibody raised against the 8S molybdate-stabilized chick oviduct PR and reacting with its 90kDa component. Another progesterone-binding component, corresponding to the 'A' subunit, also previously described, was eluted from the DEAE-Sephacel column at approximately 0.08 M-KCl, and contained a peptide of molecular mass approx. 75-80kDa, which had S20, w approximately 4S in a sucrose gradient. This component was also recognized by IgG-G3, but not by BF4; it was very unstable in terms of hormone-binding activity. 相似文献

Once thermally activated, the cardiac [3H]triamcinolone acetonide and [3H]RU 38486-receptor complexes bind to nonspecific DNA-cellulose with the same relative affinities, as evidenced by the fact that 50% of both activated complexes are eluted at approx. 215–250 mM NaCl. Thus, this pure antiglucocorticoid does promote, at least to some extent, many of the crucial in vitro events including high-affinity binding, activation, and DNA binding which have been shown to be required to elicit a physiological response in vivo. 相似文献

Aurintricarboxylic acid (ATA) was immobilized on Sepharose 4B via a carbodiimide coupling mechanism. A majority of the chick oviduct progesterone receptor was retained on the affinity resin and could be recovered upon washing the column with buffer containing free ligand or 3 M guanidine-HCl. The [3H]progesterone-receptor complex retained its integrity following the chromatography on ATA-Sepharose as judged by sedimentation analysis. The procedure allowed significant purification of progesterone receptor: SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified preparation revealed elimination of many peptide bands present in the cytosol prior to ATA-Sepharose chromatography. The technique thus has a clear potential in characterization and purification of progesterone receptor. 相似文献
