Abstract: | Binding to DNA associated with cellulose has been used to investigate the receptor-glucorticoid complex isolated from a line of rat hepatoma tissue culture cells. The amount of activated complex that bound to DNA was approximately half that which bound to nuclei. Additional results suggest the existence of two forms of the activated glucocorticoid receptor-steroid complex in about equal amounts: one form binds only to nuclei and the other binds to DNA and nuclei. The two forms also differ in their stability, with the DNA/nuclei binding form being relatively labile. The binding of either form to the appropriate acceptor is reduced by cytosol inhibitors by the same mechanism. |
