Abstract:
:Previously, we showed that the BRCA1 protein interacts directly and functionally with estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha), resulting in the inhibition of estradiol (E2)-stimulated ER-alpha transcriptional activity. The interaction sites were mapped to the N-terminus of BRCA1 (within amino acids (aa) 1-302) and the ligand-binding domain/activation function-2 (LBD/AF-2) region (within aa 282-420) of ER-alpha. In this study, we have further characterized the structure/function relationship for the BRCA1 : ER-alpha interaction. We found that the N-terminal RING domain (aa 20-64) is not required for the BRCA1 : ER-alpha interaction. We identified two separate contact points for ER-alpha, one within aa 1-100 and the other within aa 100-200 of BRCA1; and we showed that each of these BRCA1 peptides interacts with BRCA1 in vitro and in vivo. By using different fragments of the BRCA1 N-terminus, we found that aa 67-100 and 101-133 are required for the interaction with ER-alpha, but that aa 1-67 and 134-302 are dispensible. Previously, we showed that BRCA1 aa 1-302 does not inhibit E2-stimulated ER-alpha transcriptional activity but does bind to ER-alpha and acts as a dominant negative inhibitor of the full-length BRCA1 protein. Somewhat surprisingly, we found that BRCA1 aa 1-100 and BRCA1 aa 101-200 (but not aa 201-300) each inhibited ER-alpha activity, although not as efficiently as full-length BRCA1. Mutations within an HIV Rev-like nuclear export signal that resembles a nuclear receptor corepressor motif (aa 86-95) impaired the ability of both truncated (aa 1-100) and full-length (aa 1-1863) BRCA1 proteins to interact with and/or repress ER-alpha activity. Based on these findings, a partial BRCA1 : ER-alpha three-dimensional structure is proposed. The implications of these findings for understanding the BRCA1 : ER-alpha interaction are discussed.
