A solved three-dimensional crystal structure of a glucocorticord receptor (GR) α ligand binding domain polypeptide is disclosed, in the form of a crystalline glucocorticord receptor α ligand binding domain polypeptide in complex with the ligand fluticasone propionate (FP) and a peptide derived from the co-activator TIF2. The GR/FP/TIF2 structure includes an expanded binding pocket not seen in other GR structures. Methods of designing steroid and non-steroid modulators of the biological activity of GR and other nuclear receptors (NRs) are also disclosed. In another aspect of the present invention homology models of androgen receptor (AR), progesterone receptor (PR) and mineralcorticoid receptor (MR) are disclosed, as well as methods of forming homology models for other NRs. Methods of forming a soluble GR/FP/TIF2 complex are also disclosed.

Interaction of Rel proteins and steroid receptors is known to result in repression of target genes. Here we describe the discovery of a new mechanism in which Rel proteins and steroid receptors act synergistically to activate a regulatory element. This mechanism is shown to influence the expression of the brain-specific 5HT1A receptor wherein the estrogen receptor acts synergistically with the Nuclear Factor kappa B to enhance the activity of the promoter for the 5HT1A receptor gene. In addition, synergistic effects of Rel proteins with the mineralocorticoid receptor were observed, showing that synergism with Rel proteins may be expected for other steroid receptors as well. The synergism between Rel proteins and estrogen receptor or mineralocorticoid receptor provides a tool for the development of compounds that interact with the estrogen or mineralocorticoid receptor in such a way that only the synergistic effect is modulated whereas other effects are left intact. Such compounds would be invaluable for the development of medicaments for the treatment of diseases of the central nervous or cardiovascular system and other disorders in which Rel proteins play a role.
