Volume 15 Number 22 Nucleic Acids Research 1987 Cloning and sequence analysis of the rat ventral prostate glucocorticoid receptor cDNA Chawnshang Chang, John Kokontis, Chen-Tien Chang and Shutsung Liao The Ben May Institute and Deportment of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Chicago, IL, University of Chicago, USA Submitted October 16, 1987 Accession DO.Y00489 We have isolated a 1.5 kb cDNA from a rat ventral prostate XGT11 library which encodes 65% of 5*-end of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) reading frame published recently for rat hepatoma GR cDNA (1). The prostate sequence differs from that of hepatoma in seven nucleotides (Fig. 1, boxed). Four of these seven nucleotide changes did not alter the deduced amino acid sequence while three changes did alter the amino acid sequence (Table 1). Differences between the prostate and hepatoma GR cDNA sequence may represent different allelic forms of GR or sequencing errors. Use of this GR cDNA to measure the GR mRNA levels in different tissues produced the following results: rat liver 100%; human prostate 31%; rat ventral prostate 29%; rat uterus 10%. Dot blot hybridization showed that hydrocortisone injection (lOmg/day/rat) of 2 day castrated rats increased the ventral prostate GR mRNA (per unit of DNA) levels 2 fold 24 h after injection, suggesting that GR mRNA levels are regulated by glucocorticoid in the rat ventral prostate.
