Abstract excerpt
We have identified a region within the steroid binding domain of the mouse estrogen receptor that is required for both receptor dimerization and high affinity DNA binding. Analysis of sequences in this region revealed that a heptad repeat of hydrophobic residues was conserved in all members of th...
