Beschreibung:
The ligand-binding domain of nuclear receptors contains a transcriptional activation function (AF-2) that mediates hormone-dependent binding of coactivator proteins. Scanning surface mutagenesis on the human thyroid hormone receptor was performed to define the site that binds the coactivators, glucocorticoid receptor-interacting protein 1 (GRIP1) and steroid receptor coactivator 1 (SRC-1). The residues involved encircle a small surface that contains a hydrophobic cleft. Ligand activation of transcription involves formation of this surface by folding the carboxyl-terminal alpha helix against a scaffold of three other helices. These features may represent general ones for nuclear receptors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Feng, W -- Ribeiro, R C -- Wagner, R L -- Nguyen, H -- Apriletti, J W -- Fletterick, R J -- Baxter, J D -- Kushner, P J -- West, B L -- DK09516/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK51281/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P41-RR01081/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Jun 12;280(5370):1747-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Metabolic Research Unit, Box 0540, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94143-0540, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9624051" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
