Determinants of target gene specificity for ROR alpha 1: monomeric DNA binding by an orphan nuclear receptor.

Abstract excerpt

The ROR alpha isoforms are orphan members of the steroid/thyroid/retinoid receptor superfamily. Previous DNA-binding studies indicated that ROR alpha isoforms bind to response elements consisting of a single copy of the core recognition sequence AGGTCA preceded by a 6-bp A/T-rich sequence and that the distinct amino-terminal domains of each isoform influence DNA-binding specificity. In this report, we have...
