The specific, high-affinity binding of the avian oviduct progesterone receptor (PR) with target-cell nuclei and chromatin has been shown to involve DNA complexed with specific chromatin acceptor proteins. One of these chromatin acceptor proteins has been partially purified and found to be a small hydrophobic protein with a broad pI of 5.0-6.0 [Goldberger, A., & Spelsberg, T. C., (1988) Biochemistry 27, 2103-2109]. This paper describes the final purification over 100,000-fold to apparent homogeneity of this candidate PR acceptor protein, termed the receptor binding factor 1 (RBF-1). When the avian genomic DNA is bound by RBF-1, saturable, high-affinity (KD approximately 2 x 10(-9) M) binding sites for PR are generated. RBF-1 has a unique, hydrophobic N-terminal sequence. The PR binding to the RBF-1-DNA complexes is shown to be dependent on an intact activated PR with which excess nonradiolabeled PR can compete. By use of a new, highly specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) to the RBF-1 with Western immunoblotting, RBF-1 was shown to be localized in the nucleus and to be tissue and species specific. Selective removal of the chromatin proteins containing RBF-1 results in the loss of the highest affinity class of PR binding sites. A second class of residual PR binding sites remains in the nucleoacidic protein (NAP), a complex of proteins more tightly bound to the DNA. This class of PR binding activity has been classified as the RBF-2. The RBF-1 is estimated to be 0.03% of the total chromatin protein with about 1.2 x 10(5) molecules/diploid cell. 相似文献

We have identified and purified two RNA binding factors from pea nuclear extracts. One factor (RBF-1) consisted of at least two polypeptides with molecular weights of approximately 27 and 59 kD; each of these polypeptides could be crosslinked to labelled RNA by ultraviolet light. The other factor (RBF-2) also consisted of two polypeptides (of approximately 93 and 126 kO in size) that could be crosslinked to RNA by UV. Both factors showed general preferences for single stranded RNA. However, RBF-1 displayed a preference for poly(A) and poly(U) over poly(G) or poly(C), while RBF-2 had a strong preference for poly(U) over the other three homo polymers. These properties are suggestive of possible roles for these factors in RNA metabolism in plant nuclei. 相似文献

Nuclear matrix localization and specific matrix DNA binding by receptor binding factor 1 of the avian oviduct progesterone receptor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A chromatin acceptor protein for the avian oviduct progesterone receptor (PR), termed receptor binding factor 1 (RBF-1), has recently been shown to (1) be a component of the nuclear binding sites (acceptor sites) for PR and (2) generate high-affinity binding sites (termed the RBF-1 class of sites) on avian genomic DNA [Schuchard et al. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 4535-4542]. A second class of sites and its associated protein (termed RBF-2) were also identified. This paper demonstrates that RBF-1 and also the PR nuclear binding sites are localized in the oviduct nuclear matrix. RBF-1 is found in abundance in the nuclear matrix of liver but only in traces in the nuclear matrix of spleen. Extraction of the nuclear matrix with 4.0 M Gdn-HCl results in the complete removal of RBF-1 as occurs with whole chromatin. Interestingly, a second class of specific PR binding, termed RBF-2, remains on the nuclear matrix after the removal of all RBF-1. Southern blot analysis indicates that the nuclear matrix DNA contains sequences homologous with the 5'-flanking domains of the rapidly steroid regulated c-myc and c-jun protooncogenes and the beta-actin gene, but not genomic sequences of the late sex steroid regulated gene, ovalbumin, or the alpha-actin gene. A specific, small region in the 5'-flanking domain of the c-myc gene appears to be associated with the nuclear matrix. Southwestern blot analysis using partially purified RBF-1 shows a marked affinity and specificity of the RBF-1 for the nuclear matrix DNA.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The avian oviduct receptor binding factor-1 (RBF-1) is a 10 kDa nuclear matrix protein that was originally identified through its ability to effect high affinity interaction of activated progesterone receptor (PR) with chromatin. In the present study, the RBF-1 is shown to not be restricted to reproductive tissues (e.g., oviduct) but present in all avian tissues examined by Western blot analysis with a monoclonal antibody prepared against purified RBF-1. The heart and pancreas had the highest and lowest RBF-1 levels, respectively; the concentration ranging by ~ 50-fold in these tissues. The 10 kDa size of the RBF-1 detected in all tissues suggests no significant tissue-specific differences in the protein. This was consistent with the finding that purified hepatic and oviductal RBF-1 have identical amino-terminal sequence. Using a recently isolated cDNA to RBF-1, the levels of RBF-1 mRNA were found to correlate well with the ubiquitous presence of the protein as well as tissue-specific differences in concentration. The presence of RBF-1 in non-progesterone responsive tissues suggests the possibility that RBF-1 may not be specifically involved in PR-DNA interactions but may play a more diverse role, possibly involving other steroid receptors such as the glucocorticoid receptor. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Several classes of specific progesterone receptor (PR) nuclear binding sites (acceptor sites) have previously been identified in avian oviduct chromatin on the basis of different binding affinities. Recently, two classes of acceptor proteins (AP) that are associated with these binding sites in the avian oviduct have been identified. These APs were termed receptor binding factors (RBF-1 and -2), and one (RBF-1) has been purified [Schuchard et al. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 4535-4542]. The RBF-1 is associated with the highest affinity class of sites in the intact chromatin, and the RBF-2 is associated with the second highest affinity class of sites. The PR binding sites and their associated RBF-2 protein remain with the residual chromatin fraction following extraction by 4 M Gdn-HCl. This Gdn-HCl-treated chromatin has been termed nucleoacidic protein (NAP). This paper describes the 200-fold enrichment of the native RBF-2 class of PR acceptor sites beginning with the DNase I digestion of NAP to obtain DNase-resistant fragment (NAPf) containing approximately 150 bp of DNA. The PR binding sites are further enriched by high-performance or fast protein liquid chromatography and chromatofocusing. Anti-RBF-1/RBF-2 protein antibodies identify antigens that coelute with the PR binding activity. Hybridization analysis of the DNAf from the enriched NAPf demonstrates sequence homologies with the nuclear matrix DNA as well as with genomic sequences of the rapid steroid responding nuclear protooncogenes c-myc and c-jun. However, comparative analyses of the whole genomic DNA with the nuclear matrix DNA indicate that the RBF-2 (NAPf) is largely nonnuclear matrix.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Rat hepatic uroporphyrinogen III co-synthase was isolated and purified 73-fold with a 13% yield by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and sequential chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, Sephadex G-100 (superfine grade) and folate-AH-Sepharose 4B. The purified co-synthase has an Mr of approx. 42 000, and is resolved into two bands, each possessing co-synthase activity, by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. A factor was dissociated from the purified co-synthase. Results of both microbiological and competitive protein-binding assays suggest that it is a pteroylpolyglutamate. The isolated pteroylpolyglutamate factor was co-eluted with authentic N5-methyltetrahydropteroylheptaglutamate on DEAE-Sephacel. Uroporphyrinogen III is formed by cosynthase-free preparations of uroporphyrinogen I synthase in the presence of tetrahydropteroylglutamate. Tetrahydropeteroylheptaglutamate is also able to direct the formation of equivalent amounts of uroporphyrinogen III at a concentration approximately one-hundredth that of tetrahydropteroylmonoglutamate. These results suggest that a reduced pteroylpolyglutamate factor is associated with rat hepatic uroporphyrinogen III co-synthase, and that this may function as a coenzyme for the biosynthesis of uroporphyrinogen III. 相似文献

When a crude extract from 8-day-old wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Olympic) leaves was fractionated by a combination of ammonium sulfate precipitation and Sephadex G-100 chromatography the presence of three factors which have a marked effect on the stability of highly purified nitrate reductase was revealed. Two of these factors (I and III) have a positive effect and the other factor (II) has a negative effect on stability. Factors I and III can each overcome the instability-promoting effect of II; however, this was apparently not due to a direct effect on factor II. 相似文献
