摘要

Members of the thyroid hormone (TR)-retinoic acid receptor (RAR) subfamily of nuclear hormone receptors silence gene expression in the absence of hormone. Addition of cognate ligands leads to dissociation of corepressors, association of coactivators, and transcriptional activation. Here, we used the hRAR alpha silencer core, which encompasses the ligand binding domain, including receptor regions D and E of RAR alpha without the activation function called tau4/tau c/AF-2 and without the F region, to analyze the mechanisms by which transcriptional silencing is relieved. Although the RAR silencer core is able to bind ligand, it acts as a constitutive transcriptional silencer. We have fused various small activation domains to the C terminus of the silencer core and analyzed hormone-dependent changes in receptor function. We show that nine amino acids derived from the hTRbeta are sufficient to transform the RAR silencer core into a hormone-dependent activator. Lengthening the linker between the silencer core and these nine amino acids is not critical for mediating ligand-induced relief of silencing and activation. In addition, we show that a transactivation function at the C terminus is not required for relief of silencing by the hormone, but it is required for transcriptional activation. Furthermore, we created functional silencer fusions which lose their repressive function upon addition of hormone, although the corepressors SMRT and N-CoR remain attached to the receptor.
