Abstract:
:Glucocorticoid receptors of wild-type and nti ("increased nuclear transfer") mutant S49.1 mouse lymphoma cells exist in extracts under low-salt conditions predominantly as high molecular weight species (Mr greater than or equal to 300,000). These receptor-hormone complexes are unable to bind to DNA. High salt (300 mM KCl) produces dissociated receptors of Mr 116,000 and 60-A Stokes radius (wild type) and Mr 60,000 and 38-A Stokes radius (nti mutant), both of which bind to DNA. We used reaction with bifunctional N-hydroxysuccinimide esters as well as oxidation with Cu2+/o-phenanthroline to stabilize the high molecular weight structures. These cross-linked complexes do not interact with DNA, but reductive cleavage again produces the dissociable receptor forms and restores their ability to bind to DNA. The protein modifying reagents iodoacetamide and diethyl pyrocarbonate also produce stabilized high molecular weight receptor complexes. Cross-linking of the high molecular weight receptor forms can also be achieved in intact cells. Immunochemical techniques were used to prove that the complexes cross-linked either in vivo or in cell extracts do contain the heat shock protein of Mr 90,000 as a common constituent. The data show that the high molecular weight receptor complexes are preexisting in intact cells and that dissociation generates DNA binding ability.
