The chromatin structure of chimeric Moloney murine leukemia viruses (M-MuLVs) containing a glucocorticoid response element (GRE) from mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) inserted into the long terminal repeat (LTR) was investigated. Nuclear run-on assays indicated that transcription from the chimeric proviruses was induced 2- to 4-fold by dexamethasone. The wild-type M-MuLV 5' LTR contained a DNase I hypersensitive (HS) site at the TATA sequences, as well as four sites in the enhancer region. The chimeric LTRs contained these sites, as well as three additional sites in the MMTV sequences. Two of the MMTV sites were present in the absence of hormone, while one was hormone-induced. In addition, internal MMTV sequences appeared protected from DNase I digestion in the absence of hormone, suggesting bound protein. Hormone treatment resulted in loss of the DNase I protection.
