STRUCTURE OF THE PROGESTERONE RECEPTOR-DNA COMPLEX
OverviewOverview
The DNA binding domain (DBD) of nuclear hormone receptors contains a, highly conserved globular domain and a less conserved carboxyl-terminal, extension (CTE). Despite previous observations that the CTEs of some, classes of nuclear receptors are structured and interact with DNA outside, of the hexanucleotide hormone response element (HRE), there has been no, evidence for such a CTE among the steroid receptors. We have determined, the structure of the progesterone receptor (PR)-DBD-CTE DNA complex at a, resolution of 2.5 A, which revealed binding of the CTE to the minor groove, flanking the HREs. Alanine substitutions of the interacting CTE residues, reduced affinity for inverted repeat HREs separated by three nucleotides, and essentially abrogated binding to a single HRE. A highly ...
