Abstract excerpt
Genetic evidence from patients with mutations of the thyroid hormone receptor α gene (THRA) indicates that the dominant negative activity of mutants underlies the pathological manifestations. However, the molecular mechanisms by which TRα1 mutants exert dominant negative activity in vivo are not clear. We tested the hypothesis that the severe hypothyroidism in patients with THRA mutations is due to an inability...
