Popis: | Vitamin D receptor (VDR) mediates a wide variety of vitamin D actions through transcriptional controls of target genes as a ligand-dependent transcription factor. The transactivation by VDR is known to associate with two co-activator complexes, DRIP/TRAP and p160/CBP, through physical interaction with DRIP205 and p160 members (TIF2) components, respectively. However, functional difference between the two co-activator complexes for VDR co-activation remains unclear. In the present study, to address this issue, a series of point mutants in VDR helix 12 were generated to test the functional association. Alanine replacement of VDR valine 418 resulted in loss of DRIP205 interaction, but it was still transcriptionally potent with ability to interact with TIF2. Surprisingly, the V421A mutant was only partially impaired in transactivation without co-activator interaction, implying presence of a putative co-activator/complex. Thus, these findings suggest that ligand-induced transcriptional controls by VDR require a number of known and unknown co-regulator complexes, that may support the tissue-specific function of VDR. |
