Abstract excerpt
Nuclear receptors are ligand-modulated transcription factors that transduce the presence of lipophilic ligands into changes in gene expression. Nuclear receptor activity is regulated by ligand-induced interactions with coactivator or corepressor molecules. From a positive hormone response element (pHRE) and in the absence of hormone, corepressors SMRT and N-CoR are bound to some nuclear receptors such as the...
