Specific binding of progesterone receptor to progesterone-responsive elements does not require prior dimerization.

Abstract excerpt

Steroid-hormone receptors undergo, prior to binding to DNA, a hormone-dependent dimerization. It is generally accepted that this dimerization is indispensable for the high-affinity binding of hormone receptor to hormone-responsive elements. Using a progesterone-receptor mutant with the complete steroid-binding domain deleted (positions 663-930), with or without the epitope required for binding the monoclonal...
