摘要

For approximately one-third of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer patients, extracted tumor ER is unable to bind toits cognate DNA estrogen response element (ERE), an effect that is partly reversible by the thiol-reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT). Fulllength (67 kDa) ER or its 11 kDa recombinant DNA-binding domain (ER-DBD) is also susceptible to loss of structure and function by the action of oxidants such as diamide and hydrogen peroxide; however, prior DNA binding by ER or ER-DBD protects against this oxidant induced loss of function. The ER-DBD contains two (Cys)_4-liganded zinc finger motifs that cooperate to stabilize a rigid DNA-binding recognition helix and a flexible helix supported dimerization loop, respectively. COmparisons between synthetic peptide analogues of each zinc finger and recombinant ER-DBD in the presence of zinc by electrophoretic mobility shift assay, circular dichroism, and mass spectrometry confirm that cooperativety betwee these zinc fingers is required for both ER-DBD structure (#alpha#-helicity)and function (dimeric DNA binding).Rapid proteolytic digestion of monomeric, non-DNA-bound ER-DBD followed by HPLC-MS analysis of the resulting peptides demonstrates that zinc inhibits thiol oxidation of the DNA-binding finger, but not the finger supporting the flexible dimerization loop, which remains sensitive to internal disulfide formation. These findings indicate that the loss of ER DNA-binding function in extracts from some primary breast tumors and in ER or ER-DBD exposed to thiol-reacting oxidants results from this asymmetric zinc finger susceptibility to disulfide fromation that prevents dimerization. Although ER-DBD contains several strategically located methionine residues,they are less susceptible to oxidation than the thiol groups and, thus, afford no protection against cysteine oxidation and consequent loss of ER DNA-binding function.
