Abstract excerpt
Binding of the thyroid hormone receptor (TR) to thyroid hormone-responsive elements (TREs) is crucial for regulation of gene expression by thyroid hormone. The TR binds to each half-site of a palindromic TRE separately, as a monomer, or simultaneously, as a homodimer. In addition, the TR monomer interacts with a 42-kDa protein that may be responsible for an increase in the apparent size and stability of the...
