The glucocorticoid receptor exists in the cytoplasm of hormone- untreated cells as a complex with the 90-kDa heat shock protein (HSP90). Glucocorticoids induce dissociation of the glucocorticoid binding protein from HSP90 and translocation of the receptor to the nucleus. HSP90 binds to actin filaments, and calmodulin or tropomyosin inhibits the binding. We present here evidence that the HSP90- containing glucocorticoid receptor complexes (8 S receptor) bind to filamentous actin in vitro while the HSP90-free form of the receptor does not. The binding was detectable for both the crude cytosolic fractions and the partially purified 8 S glucocorticoid receptor. Purified HSP90 or tropomyosin completely abolished the binding. Calmodulin also inhibited the binding in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. From these results, we conclude that the glucocorticoid receptor complex is able to bind actin filaments via the HSP90 moiety. The binding may provide an anchoring mechanism for the glucocorticoid receptor in the cytoplasm.
