    Nuclear receptor coregulator (NRC) is a 250-kDa nuclear protein involved in transcriptional activation of nuclear hormone receptors, nuclear factor-kappaB, c-Jun, c-Fos, and cAMP response element-binding protein. NRC is organized into a modular structure consisting of two activation domains (AD1 and AD2), two nuclear hormone receptor-interacting motifs, LxxLL-1 and LxxLL-2, and a C-terminal regulatory region rich in serines, threonines, and leucines. The LxxLL-1 motif of NRC binds to a broad spectrum of nuclear hormone receptors with high affinity whereas LxxLL-2 interacts with a very limited number of receptors. In this study we present further evidence that NRC can act as a dimer and have identified a dimerization region of 146 amino acids including LxxLL-1. Mutation of the core LxxLL-1 motif, however, indicates that it is not involved in the dimerization of NRC. AD2, just C-terminal of LxxLL-1, was found to play a central role in ligand-dependent activation by nuclear receptors even though AD1 exhibits more potent intrinsic activity. Thus, a short region of approximately 300 amino acids including and flanking LxxLL-1 plays an important role in NRC dimerization and nuclear receptor binding and transcriptional activation. In addition, consistent with its role as a cointegrator for transcriptional activation, NRC also functions as a coactivator for signal transducer and activator of transcription 2 (STAT-2) and p53. Activation of p53 by NRC appears to involve a novel mechanism where NRC interacts indirectly with p53 through Trap80, a member of the mediator complex, which binds NRC interacting factor-1 (NIF-1), which interacts with and potentiates the effect of NRC.
