Abstract
The regulation of steroidogenic hormone receptor-mediated activity plays an important role in the development of hormone-dependent cancers. For example, during prostate carcinogenesis, the regulatory function played by the androgen receptor is often converted from a growth suppressor to an oncogene thus promoting prostate cancer cell survival and eventual metastasis. Within the cytoplasm, steroid hormone receptor activity is regulated by the Hsp90 chaperone in conjunction with a series of co-chaperone proteins. Collectively, Hsp90 and its binding associates form a large heteromeric complex that scaffold the fully mature receptor for binding with the respective hormone. To date our understanding of the interactions between Hsp90 with the various TPR domain-containing co-chaperone proteins is limited due to a lack of available structural information. Here we present the stable formation of Hsp90(2)-FKBP52(1)- HOP(2) and Hsp90(2)-FKBP52(1)-p23(2)-HOP(2) complexes as detected by immunoprecipitation, time course dynamic light scattering and electron microscopy. The simultaneous binding of FKBP52 and HOP to the Hsp90 dimer provide direct evidence of a novel chaperone sub-complex that likely plays a transient role in the regulation of the fully mature steroid hormone receptor.
