Binding of Estrogenic Compounds to Recombinant Estrogen Receptor-α: Application to Environmental Analysis
Estrogenic activity in environmental samples could be mediated through a wide variety of compounds and by various mechanisms. High-affinity compounds for estrogen receptors (ERs), such as natural or synthetic estrogens, as well as low-affinity compounds such as alkylphenols, phthalates, and polychlorinated biphenyls are present in water and sediment samples. Furthermore, compounds such as polyc...
متن کاملDifferential estrogen receptor binding of estrogenic substances: a species comparison.
The study investigated the ability of 34 natural and synthetic chemicals to compete with [3H]17beta-estradiol (E2) for binding to bacterially expressed glutathione-S-transferase (GST)-estrogen receptors (ER) fusion proteins from five different species. Fusion proteins consisted of the ER D, E and F domains of human alpha (GST-hERalphadef), mouse alpha (GST-mERalphadef), chicken (GST-cERdef), gr...
متن کاملBinding of Estrogen Receptor to Uterine Nuclei
The retention of receptor. estrogen complexes (R. E) in the nuclei of uterine cells was studied. When nuclei from uteri exposed to estradiol (E,) are subjected to a single extraction with 0.6 M KC1 in Tris/EDTA buffer, only 70% of R. E, is removed, and the remaining 30% is extractable with absolute ethanol. Several methods for quantitation of R. E, in nuclear KC1 extracts were compared. It was ...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
Location analysis for the estrogen receptor-α reveals binding to diverse ERE sequences and widespread binding within repetitive DNA elements
Location analysis for estrogen receptor-alpha (ERalpha)-bound cis-regulatory elements was determined in MCF7 cells using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-on-chip. Here, we present the estrogen response element (ERE) sequences that were identified at ERalpha-bound loci and quantify the incidence of ERE sequences under two stringencies of detection: <10% and 10-20% nucleotide deviation from t...
