Gene regulation by thyroid hormones is mediated through multiple nuclear receptors. Only some of these thyroid hormone receptor (TR) isoforms become transcriptional enhancers in the presence of the thyroid hormone T3. Here we analyze the regulatory function of the human TR alpha 2 isoform. This protein does not bind T3 and is not a transcriptional activator of thyroid hormone-responsive elements (TRE). Transfected TR alpha 2 functions as a constitutive repressor of the transcriptional activators TR alpha 1 and TR beta 1 but also represses heterologous receptors, including the retinoic acid receptor and the estrogen receptor, which can activate TRE-controlled genes. TR alpha 2 protein showed strongly reduced DNA binding to a palindromic TRE when compared with the active TRs. Hybrid receptor analysis revealed that the special properties of the TR alpha 2 protein, including its repressor function and DNA binding characteristics, are intrinsic properties of its carboxyterminus and can be transferred to other receptors. Although it has been shown that the active TRs can act as repressors and silencers due to their strong DNA binding in the absence of hormone, our data show that TR alpha 2 is unlikely to inhibit TRs and other receptors through a competitive DNA binding mechanism. Antibody gel shift experiments suggest that repression by TR alpha 2 might result from interaction with active receptors. Thus, the receptor-like TR alpha 2 isoform differs from typical nuclear receptors in its DNA-binding and ligand-binding properties and appears to regulate the activity of other receptors via protein-protein interaction.
