Abstract excerpt
The dimer interface within the DNA-binding domain (DBD) of the steroid receptors stabilizes receptor binding to a palindromic DNA site termed a hormone response element (HRE) and is essential for receptor transcriptional activity when a single HRE drives transcription of a target gene. However, most steroid-responsive genes are driven by multiple HREs, and synergy between HREs is an important determinant of...
