Nuclear receptors spring into action

Malcolm G. Parker1 & Roger White1

1Molecular Endocrinology Laboratory, Imperial Cancer Research Fund, PO Box 123,44 Lincoln's Inn Fields, London WC2A 3PX, UK

The ligand-binding domain of nuclear receptors appears to contain a common fold that generates a conserved ligand-binding pocket. Their transcriptional activity is induced by ligand through realignment of a Gterminal helix to form a novel interacting surface.
