The functional interplay between different domains of estrogen receptor-alpha (ERalpha, NR3A1) is responsible for the overall properties of the full-length protein. We previously identified an interaction between the N-terminal A and C-temninal domains, which we demonstrate here to repress ligand-independent transactivation and transirepression abilities of ERalpha. Using targeted mutations based on ERa structural models, we determine the basis for this interaction that defines a regulatory interplay between ERalpha A domain, corepressors, and ERalpha Helix 12 for binding to the same C-terminal surface. We propose a dynamic model where binding of different ligands influences the A/D-F domain interaction and results in specific functional outcomes. This model gives insights into the dynamic properties of full-length ERalpha and into the structure of unliganded ERalpha.
