Abstract
Androgen receptor (AR) plays a critical role in development and maintenance of male reproductive functions and the etiology of prostate cancer. As a ligand-regulated transcription factor, identification and characterization of AR coregulators are essential for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying its diverse biological functions. Here we reported the identification of a novel AR coactivator, deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1), through a biochemical approach. DBC1 interacts with AR in a ligand-stimulated manner and facilitates AR transcriptional activation in transfected cells as well as in Xenopus oocytes. In in vitro gel shift experiments, recombinant DBC1 drastically enhanced AR DNA-binding activity. Expression of DBC1 also enhanced the binding of AR to chromatinized template in vivo, whereas knockdown of DBC1 impaired the binding of AR to endogenous prostate-specific antigen (PSA) gene in the prostate cancer cell line LNCaP. Thus, our data identify DBC1 as a novel AR coactivator.
