Abstract excerpt
Considerable interest exists in developing an artificial system for the control of gene expression, based on the hormone binding domain (HBD) of steroid receptors. In this study we describe a yeast based approach which allows the identification of mutations within the HBD of steroid receptors, in this case the estrogen receptor, which result in altered specificity of the HBD with respect to its activation by...
