Willem de Boer1 and Angelo C. Notides** abstract: A method was developed for measuring the [3H] estradiol dissociation of the nuclear estrogen receptor from calf uterine nuclei that were isolated from tissue slices preincubated with [3H] estradiol. The [3H] estradiol dissoci-ation from the nuclear estrogen receptor was a single, slowly dissociating component at 29 C, k=(6.02±0.26) X 10~ 3 min™ 1. This nuclear-bound estrogen receptor was similar to the salt-extracted nuclear estrogen receptor, k= 8.8 X 10 “3 min™ 1, and to the second phase of the biphasic [3H] estradiol dissociation process of the cytoplasmic estrogen receptor, k= 8.68 X 10 “3 min'1. The second phase of the [3H] estradiol dissociation was previously shown to be the activated form of the cytoplasmic estrogen receptor. The nuclear [3H] estradiol-receptor dissociation rate was reduced by one-half to 2.83±0.21 X 10~ 3 min™ 1 after the addition of uterine cytosol to the uterine nuclei in place of the buffer, indicating the presence of a factor in the uterine cytosol that interacts with the receptor only when it is chromatin bound or interacts with the chromatin and indirectly influences the chromatin-receptor interaction. The cytosol factor is a macromolecule found in uterus, but not in diaphragm; it is stableat 40 C but unstable at 100 C for 10 min and is precipitated by ammonium sulfate at 60-90% saturation. Thefraction of the estrogen receptor that bound to isolated nuclei was 5-fold greater (9% vs. 43%) when the uterine cytosol was preincubated at 29 C than at 0 C. The dissociation of the [3H] estradiol receptor adsorbed to the isolated nuclei whether preincubated at 0 C or at 29 C showed the same, slow [3H] estradiol dissociation kinetics at 29 C. The presence of 0.01% Triton X-100 or excessively high unlabeled estradiol concentrations (10-100 µ) resulted in anomalous [3H] estradiol dissociation kinetics of the nuclear estrogen receptor, suggesting that highconcentrations of steroids can interact with hydrophobic sites on the receptor to produce a nonspecific detergent-like action on the receptor. These dataindicate that the nuclear estrogen receptor has estradiol dissociation kinetics similar to those of the activated form of the cytoplasmic estrogen receptor and there is present a protein factor in the uterine cytosol that affects the estrogen receptor-nuclear interaction. e activation of the cytoplasmic, nonactive form of the estrogen receptor by an estrogen-and temperature-dependent reaction results in the translocation of the receptor to the nucleus (Jensen et al., 1968; Shyamala & Gorski, 1969). We have recently demonstrated that the nonactive and active conformational states of the estrogen receptor are reflected in two affinity states of the receptor. The [3H] estradiol dissociation from the cytoplasmic estrogen receptor occurs as two exponential components. The first or fast component (ki) results from the [3H] estradiol dissociating from the nonactive state of the receptor. The activated form of the cytoplasmic estrogen receptor produces the second or slower [3H] estradiol dissociating component (fc_2). Estradiol binding modulates the receptor activation process by driving the equilibrium between the two forms of the receptor from the nonactive, low-affinity receptor state toward the higher affinity, activated state of the receptor (Weichman & Notides, 1977, 1979, 1980). The kinetics of [3H] estradiol dissociation provides a sensitive indicator of thetwo states of the receptor. In this paper we investigate the [3H] estradiol dissociation kinetics of the nuclear estrogen receptor, assess its relationship to the activated cy-toplasmic estrogen receptor, and observe nuclear estrogen receptor-chromatin interactions …
