The nuclear receptor superfamily [PDF]
Nuclear receptors are one of the most abundant classes of transcriptional regulators in animals (metazoans). They regulate diverse functions, such as homeostasis, reproduction, development and metabolism (for a review, see [Laudet and Gronemeyer, 2002][1]).

Endometriosis and nuclear receptors [PDF]
Abstract BACKGROUND Endometriosis is recognized as a steroid-dependent disorder; however, the precise roles of nuclear receptors (NRs) in steroid responsiveness and other signaling pathways are not well understood. OBJECTIVE AND RATIONALE

Control of steroid receptor dynamics and function by genomic actions of the cochaperones p23 and Bag-1L [PDF]
Molecular chaperones encompass a group of unrelated proteins that facilitate the correct assembly and disassembly of other macromolecular structures, which they themselves do not remain a part of.

Dynamics of Nuclear Receptors [PDF]
The dynamic properties of VDR LBD and full-length VDR/RXRα heterodimer in the presence and absence of ligands were investigated by hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (Zhang et al., 2010a). The results beautifully complement X-ray crystal structure data.

The evolution of drug-activated nuclear receptors: one ancestral gene diverged into two xenosensor genes in mammals [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Drugs and other xenobiotics alter gene expression of cytochromes P450 (CYP) by activating the pregnane X receptor (PXR) and constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) in mammals.
