We use here a chimera of the green fluorescent
protein (GFP) and the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) to test the notion
that the protein chaperone heat shock protein-90 (hsp90) is required
for steroid-dependent translocation of the receptor through the
cytoplasm along cytoskeletal tracks. The GFP-GR fusion protein
undergoes steroid-mediated translocation from the cytoplasm to the
nucleus, where it is transcriptionally active. Treatment of 3T3 cells
containing steroid-bound GFP-GR with geldanamycin, a benzoquinone
ansamycin that binds to hsp90 and disrupts its function, inhibits
dexamethasone-dependent translocation from the cytoplasm to the
nucleus. The t1/2 for translocation in the
absence of geldanamycin is
5 min, and the
t1/2 in the presence of geldanamycin is
45
min. In cells treated for 1 h with the cytoskeletal disrupting
agents colcemid, cytochalasin D, and ß,ß'-iminodipropionitrile to
completely disrupt the microtubule, microfilament, and intermediate
filament networks, respectively, the GFP-GR still translocates rapidly
to the nucleus in a strictly dexamethasone-dependent manner but
translocation is no longer affected by geldanamycin. After withdrawal
of the cytoskeletal disrupting agents for 3 h, normal cytoskeletal
architecture is restored, and geldanamycin inhibition of
dexamethasone-dependent GFP-GR translocation is restored. We suggest
that in cells without an intact cytoskeletal system, the GFP-GR moves
through the cytoplasm by diffusion. However, under physiological
conditions in which the cytoskeleton is intact, diffusion is limited,
and the GFP-GR utilizes a movement machinery that is dependent upon
hsp90 chaperone activity. In contrast to the GR, GFP-STAT5B, a
signaling protein that is not complexed with hsp90, undergoes
GH-dependent translocation to the nucleus in a manner that is not
dependent upon hsp90 chaperone activity.
