Response to 10 nM dexamethasone in MEF cells expressing GR dimer deficient mutant receptors


ABSTRACT: The glucocorticoid (GC) receptor (GR) is essential in development and inflammation. Healthy GRdim/dim mice with reduced dimerization propensity due to a point mutation (A465T) at the dimer interface of the GR DNA binding domain (DBD) (here GRD/D) have helped to define GR monomer and dimer functions of GR. Since GRD/D retains residual dimerization capacity, we generated the dimer-nullifying double mutant GRD+L/D+L mice, featuring an additional mutation (I634A) in the ligand binding domain (LBD) of GR. These mice are perinatally lethal, as are GRL/L mice, displaying improper lung and skin formation. We used embryonic fibroblasts, high and low doses of dexamethasone (Dex), nuclear translocation, RNAseq, dimerization assays and ligand binding assays (and Kd values), we suggest that the lethal phenotype is due to insufficient ligand binding. The data suggest cross talk between GR dimerization potential and ligand affinity. We conclude that a mutation as subtle as this I634A, at a position not directly involved in ligand interactions senso stricto, can thus still influence ligand binding and have a lethal outcome.
