Allosteric regulation of estrogen receptor structure, function, and coactivator recruitment by different estrogen response elements.
Hormone-activated ERs (ERalpha and ERbeta) bind with high affinity to specific DNA sequences, estrogen response elements (EREs), located within the regulatory regions of target genes. Once considered to function solely as receptor tethers, there is an increasing amount of recent evidence to suggest that the sequence of the ERE can influence receptor activity. In this study, we have performed a ...
متن کاملEnvironmental estrogens induce transcriptionally active estrogen receptor dimers in yeast: activity potentiated by the coactivator RIP140.
We used three yeast genetic systems to investigate the estrogen-like activity of octylphenol (OP), bisphenol-A (BPA), o,p'-DDT, and o, p'-DDE to induce human estrogen receptor (hER) dimerization and transcriptional activation. We have demonstrated that OP, BPA, and o, p'-DDT can induce hER ligand-dependent dimerization using a yeast two-hybrid assay. All three xenoestrogens, plus estradiol, enh...
متن کاملOverexpression of Endometrial Estrogen Receptor-Alpha in The Window of Implantation in Women with Unexplained Infertility
Objective Background: Failure in the endometrial receptivity may account for a significant number of infertility cases including unexplained infertility in women. Reduction in the endometrial estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-α) expression during window of implantation may be a critical event that coincides with expression of specific genes and providing a receptive endometrium. The aim of present st...
متن کاملMICoA, a Novel MTA 1 Interacting Protein Coactivator, Regulates Estrogen Receptor-alpha Transactivation Functions*
The transcriptional activity of estrogen receptor-alpha (ER) is modified by coactivators, corepressors and chromatin remodeling complexes. We have previously shown that the metastasis-associated protein-1 (MTA1), a component of histone deacetylase and nucleosome remodeling complexes, represses ER-driven transcription by recruiting histone deacetylases (HDACs) to the estrogen receptor element (E...
متن کاملSpecific inhibition of estrogen receptor alpha function by antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotides.
We have tested the effect of a range of antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODN) directed against the human estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) on ERalpha protein expression and function. Antisense ERalpha ODN transfected into the ERalpha-positive human breast carcinoma cell line MCF7-K2 showed variable responses dependent on the oligo used. The most active antisense ODN (oligo 7) decreased the ...
