  • Title: Binding of the estradiol-receptor complex to reconstituted nucleoacidic protein from calf uterus.
    Author: Ross P, Ruh TS.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1984 May 15; 782(1):18-25. PubMed ID: 6722156.
    Abstract:
    Non-histone protein-DNA complexes with acceptor activity for estradiol-receptor complexes were reconstituted from fractionated calf uterine chromatin. Acceptor activity had tissue specificity with target tissue binding exceeding non-target tissue binding. The binding of estradiol-receptor complexes to acceptor sites was dependent on intact non-histone protein-DNA complexes, reconstituted select non-histone proteins, and protein equivalent: DNA reconstitution ratios. [3H]Estradiol-receptor complexes were bound to reconstituted non-histone protein-DNA complexes (i.e., nucleoacidic protein) with a high affinity and with a limited number of binding sites. Fractionation of uterine chromatin non-histone proteins identified two major sets of non-histone proteins which had acceptor activity when reconstituted with DNA. Thus, it seems possible to reconstitute nucleoacidic protein fractions with specific acceptor activity for the calf uterine estrogen receptor.
