Abstract

We have previously shown that human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) can efficiently transform primary baby rat kidney cells in the presence of the steroid hormones progesterone and the glucocorticoid dexamethasone. To study this effect of hormone, different combinations of the previously identified glucocorticoid response element (GRE) at nucleotide 7640 of HPV-16 and the other two GREs that we have recently identified, at nucleotides 7385 and 7474, were mutated. The previously described GRE and the other two GREs were shown to be functional for the induction of transformation by dexamethasone. In addition, transient assays in cervical HeLa cells demonstrated the functional importance of the three individual GREs. Assays for in vitro interaction demonstrated the specific binding of a 97-kDa protein, the glucocorticoid receptor, to both recently identified HPV-16 GREs.
