Abstract excerpt
Estrogen binds to estrogen receptors in cells, thereby activating the receptors and eliciting biological effects. One of the best characterized effects of estrogen receptor-alpha (ERalpha) is transcriptional activation that regulates selected target genes in the nucleus. Work from several laboratories has documented a Ca2+-dependent interaction between ERalpha and calmodulin. In addition, we previously showed...
