Studies on the mechanism of action of 1 alpha,24-dihydroxyvitamin D3. III. The specific binding of 1 alpha,24-dihydroxyvitamin D3 to the receptor of chick parathyroid gland. 1982

S Ishizuka, and K Bannai, and T Naruchi, and Y Hashimoto

Three protein fractions of the cytosol of the chick parathyroid glands, which had the sedimentation constants of 2.5 S, 3.7 S and 5.5 S, were found to bind with 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Among these proteins, the 3.7 S protein was assumed to be the specific receptor protein. The 3.7 S receptor protein was also capable of binding to 1 alpha,24-dihydroxyvitamin D3 but not 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. The binding affinity of 1 alpha,24(R)-dihydroxyvitamin D3 to the 3.7 S receptor protein was estimated to be 1.2 times greater than that of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, while 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 bound to the receptor protein about 10 times stronger than 1 alpha,24(S)-dihydroxyvitamin D3. The dissociation constant for the receptor-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 complex at 0 degrees C was 2.7 x 10(-11) M, the dissociation constants were calculated to be 2.2 x 10(-11) M and 2.6 x 10(-10) M for the complexes with 1 alpha,24(R)-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and 1 alpha,24(S)-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010280	Parathyroid Glands	Two pairs of small oval-shaped glands located in the front and the base of the NECK and adjacent to the two lobes of THYROID GLAND. They secrete PARATHYROID HORMONE that regulates the balance of CALCIUM; PHOSPHORUS; and MAGNESIUM in the body.	Gland, Parathyroid,Glands, Parathyroid,Parathyroid Gland
D011956	Receptors, Cell Surface	Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D011987	Receptors, Steroid	Proteins found usually in the cytoplasm or nucleus that specifically bind steroid hormones and trigger changes influencing the behavior of cells. The steroid receptor-steroid hormone complex regulates the transcription of specific genes.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D018167	Receptors, Calcitriol	Proteins, usually found in the cytoplasm, that specifically bind calcitriol, migrate to the nucleus, and regulate transcription of specific segments of DNA with the participation of D receptor interacting proteins (called DRIP). Vitamin D is converted in the liver and kidney to calcitriol and ultimately acts through these receptors.
