The combination of partially purified, activated (nuclear binding) mammary glucocorticoid receptor with a macromolecule present in cytosol converts the receptor to a form with properties of native receptor. After salt activation of native receptor and subsequent purification by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, the activated receptor sediments in sucrose density gradients at 4.0S and binds (80–90%) ATP-agarose. Combination of this partially purified, activated receptor with a factor present in crude cytosol allows the receptor to sediment in the position of native receptor (8.4S). Furthermore, this receptor form, like native receptor, does not interact significantly with ATPagarose. The cytosolic factor responsible for this receptor conversion is macromolecular (MW > 5000) and does not interact with ATP-agarose. It retains its transformation reversal properties after incubation at 100°C for 10–15 minutes in the presence and absence of 8M urea/1% SDS/1mM DTT and is not destroyed by treatment with DNase. However, the receptor transformation reversal factor is inactivated by treatment with RNase. These results demonstrate that glucocorticoid receptor activation is a reversible process and suggest that RNA is involved.
