Abstract excerpt
In this report, we have studied the intracellular dynamics and distribution of the thyroid hormone receptor-beta (TRbeta) in living cells, utilizing fusions to the green fluorescent protein. Wild-type TRbeta was mostly nuclear in both the absence and presence of triiodothyronine; however, triiodothyronine induced a nuclear reorganization of TRbeta. By mutating defined regions of TRbeta, we found that both nuclear...
