Abstract excerpt
To determine the importance of specific amino acids in the hormone-binding domain of the human glucocorticoid receptor (hGR), we have generated mutants M565R, G567A, and A573Q. In hormone binding assays using [3H]cortisol, half-maximal saturation of dexamethasone competition was achieved at 10 pM with hGR M565R and hGRA573Q compared to 10 nM with wild type hGR. Similar results were obtained in competition assays...
