>gnl|CDD|143528 cd06970, NR_DBD_PNR, DNA-binding domain of the photoreceptor
          cell-specific nuclear receptor (PNR) is composed of two
          C4-type zinc fingers.  DNA-binding domain of the
          photoreceptor cell-specific nuclear receptor (PNR) is
          composed of two C4-type zinc fingers. Each zinc finger
          contains a group of four Cys residues which
          co-ordinates a single zinc atom. PNR interacts with
          specific DNA sites upstream of the target gene and
          modulates the rate of transcriptional initiation.  PNR
          is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of the
          ligand-activated transcription factors. PNR is
          expressed only in the outer layer of retinal
          photoreceptor cells. It may be involved in the
          signaling pathway regulating photoreceptor
          differentiation and/or maintenance. It most likely
          binds to DNA as a homodimer. Like other members of the
          nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated
          transcription factors, PNR  has  a central well
          conserved DNA binding domain (DBD), a variable
          N-terminal domain, a flexible hinge and a C-terminal
          ligand binding domain (LBD).

          interacts with specific DNA sites upstream of the
          target gene and modulates the rate of transcriptional
          initiation.  TLX is an orphan receptor that is
          expressed by neural stem/progenitor cells in the adult
          brain of the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the dentate
          gyrus (DG). It plays a key role in neural development
          by promoting cell cycle progression and preventing
          apoptosis in the developing brain. Like other members

>gnl|CDD|143512 cd06916, NR_DBD_like, DNA-binding domain of nuclear receptors is
          composed of two C4-type zinc fingers.  DNA-binding
          domain of nuclear receptors is composed of two C4-type
          zinc fingers. Each zinc finger contains a group of four
          Cys residues which co-ordinates a single zinc atom. It
          interacts with a specific DNA site upstream of the
          target gene and modulates the rate of transcriptional
          initiation. Nuclear receptors form a superfamily of
          ligand-activated transcription regulators, which
          regulate various physiological functions, from
          development, reproduction, to homeostasis and
          metabolism in animals (metazoans). The family contains
          not only receptors for known ligands but also orphan
          receptors for which ligands do not exist or have not
          been identified. NRs share a common structural
          organization with a central well conserved DNA binding
          domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal domain, a flexible
          hinge and a C-terminal ligand binding domain (LBD).
          Most nuclear receptors bind as homodimers or
          heterodimers to their target sites, which consist of
          two hexameric half-sites. Specificity is determined by
          the half-site sequence, the relative orientation of the
          half-sites and the number of spacer nucleotides between
          the half-sites. However, a growing number of nuclear
          receptors have been reported to bind to DNA as
          monomers.

          (human testicular receptor 2 and 4) is composed of two
          C4-type zinc fingers.  DNA-binding domain of the TR2
          and TR4 (human testicular receptor 2 and 4) is composed
          of two C4-type zinc fingers. Each zinc finger contains
          a group of four Cys residues which coordinates a single
          zinc atom. TR2 and TR4 interact with specific DNA sites
          upstream of the target gene and modulate the rate of
          transcriptional initiation. TR4 and TR2 are orphan
          nuclear receptors; the physiological ligand is as yet
          unidentified. TR2 is abundantly expressed in the
          androgen-sensitive prostate. TR4 transcripts are
          expressed in many tissues, including central nervous
          system, adrenal gland, spleen, thyroid gland, and
          prostate. It has been shown that human TR2 binds to a
          wide spectrum of natural hormone response elements
          (HREs) with distinct affinities suggesting that TR2 may
          cross-talk with other gene expression regulation
          systems. The genes responding to TR2 or TR4 include
          genes that are regulated by retinoic acid receptor,
          vitamin D receptor, and peroxisome
          proliferator-activated receptor. TR4/2 binds to HREs as
          dimers. Like other members of the nuclear receptor (NR)
          superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors,
          TR2-like receptors  have  a central well conserved DNA

          factor 4 (HNF4) is composed of two C4-type zinc
          fingers.  DNA-binding domain of hepatocyte nuclear
          factor 4 (HNF4) is composed of two C4-type zinc
          fingers. Each zinc finger contains a group of four Cys
          residues which co-ordinates a single zinc atom. HNF4
          interacts with a DNA site, composed of two direct
          repeats of AGTTCA with 1 bp spacer, which is upstream
          of target genes and modulates the rate of
          transcriptional initiation. HNF4 is a member of the
          nuclear receptor superfamily. HNF4 plays a key role in
          establishing and maintenance of hepatocyte
          differentiation in the liver. It is also expressed in
          gut, kidney, and pancreatic beta cells. HNF4 was
          originally classified as an orphan receptor, but later
          it is found that HNF4 binds with very high affinity to
          a variety of fatty acids. However, unlike other nuclear
          receptors, the ligands do not act as a molecular switch
          for HNF4. They seem to constantly bind to the receptor,
          which is constitutively active as a transcription
          activator. Like other members of the nuclear receptor
          (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated transcription
          factors, HNF4  has a central well conserved DNA binding
          domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal domain, a flexible

          receptors (TRs) is composed of two C4-type zinc
          fingers.  DNA-binding domain of thyroid hormone
          receptors (TRs) is composed of two C4-type zinc
          fingers. Each zinc finger contains a group of four Cys
          residues which co-ordinates a single zinc atom. TR
          interacts with the thyroid response element, which is a
          DNA site with direct repeats of the consensus sequence
          5'-AGGTCA-3' separated by one to five base pairs,
          upstream of target genes and modulates the rate of
          transcriptional initiation. Thyroid hormone receptor
          (TR) mediates the actions of thyroid hormones, which
          play critical roles in growth, development, and
          homeostasis in mammals. They regulate overall metabolic
          rate, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and heart
          rate, and affect mood. TRs are expressed from two
          separate genes (alpha and beta) in human and each gene
          generates two isoforms of the receptor through
          differential promoter usage or splicing. TRalpha
          functions in the heart to regulate heart rate and
          rhythm and TRbeta is active in the liver and other
          tissues. The unliganded TRs function as transcription
          repressors, by binding to thyroid hormone response
          elements (TRE) predominantly as homodimers, or as
          heterodimers with retinoid X-receptors (RXR), and being
          associated with a complex of proteins containing
          corepressor proteins. Ligand binding promotes
          corepressor dissociation and binding of a coactivator
          to activate transcription. Like other members of the
          nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated
          transcription factors, TR has a central well conserved
          DNA binding domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal domain,

           receptors (RORs) is composed of two C4-type zinc
           fingers. Each zinc finger contains a group of four Cys
           residues which coordinates a single zinc atom. ROR
           interacts with specific DNA sites upstream of the target
           gene and modulates the rate of transcriptional
           initiation.  RORS are key regulators of many
           physiological processes during embryonic development.
           RORs bind as monomers to specific ROR response elements
           (ROREs) consisting of the consensus core motif AGGTCA
           preceded by a 5-bp A/T-rich sequence. There are three
           subtypes of retinoid-related orphan receptors (RORs),
           alpha, beta, and gamma, which differ only in N-terminal
           sequence and are distributed in distinct tissues.
           RORalpha plays a key role in the development of the
           cerebellum particularly in the regulation of the
           maturation and survival of Purkinje cells. RORbeta
           expression is largely restricted to several regions of
           the brain, the retina, and pineal gland. RORgamma is
           essential for lymph node organogenesis. Recently, it has
           been suggested that cholesterol or a cholesterol
           derivative are the natural ligands of RORalpha. Like
           other members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily
           of ligand-activated transcription factors,
           retinoid-related orphan receptors have a central well

           proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are members of
           the nuclear receptor superfamily of ligand-activated
           transcription factors. PPARs play important roles in

          DNA-binding domain of retinoid X receptor (RXR) is
          composed of two C4-type zinc fingers. Each zinc finger
          contains a group of four Cys residues which
          co-ordinates a single zinc atom. RXR functions as a DNA
          binding partner by forming heterodimers with other
          nuclear receptors including CAR, FXR, LXR, PPAR, PXR,
          RAR, TR, and VDR. All RXR heterodimers preferentially
          bind response elements composed of direct repeats of
          two AGGTCA sites with a 1-5 bp spacer.  RXRs can play
          different roles in these heterodimers. RXR  acts either
          as a structural component of the heterodimer complex,
          required for DNA binding but not acting as a receptor,
          or as both a structural and a functional component of
          the heterodimer, allowing 9-cis RA to signal through
          the corresponding heterodimer. In addition, RXR can
          also form homodimers, functioning as a receptor for
          9-cis RA, independently of other nuclear receptors.
          Like other members of the nuclear receptor (NR)

          AGTTCA motifs with a 4 bp spacer upstream of the target
          gene, and modulates the rate of transcriptional
          initiation. The pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a
          ligand-regulated transcription factor that responds to
          a diverse array of chemically distinct ligands,
          including many endogenous compounds and clinical drugs.

          This domain interacts with specific DNA sites upstream
          of the target gene and modulates the rate of
          transcriptional initiation. This nuclear receptor
          family includes at least three subgroups of receptors
          that function in embryo development and
          differentiation, and other processes. FTZ-F1 interacts
          with the cis-acting DNA motif of ftz gene, which is
          required at several stages of development.
          Particularly, FTZ-F1 regulated genes are strongly
          linked to steroid biosynthesis and sex-determination;
          LRH-1 is a regulator of bile-acid homeostasis,
          steroidogenesis, reverse cholesterol transport and the
          initial stages of embryonic development; SF-1 is an
          essential regulator of endocrine development and
          function and is considered a master regulator of
          reproduction; SF-1 functions cooperatively with other
          transcription factors to modulate gene expression.
          Phospholipids have been identified as potential ligand
          for LRH-1 and steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1). However,
          the ligand for FTZ-F1 has not yet been identified. Most
          nuclear receptors function as homodimer or

          range of biological activities including calcium
          metabolism, cell proliferation and differentiation, and
          immunomodulation. VDR is a high-affinity receptor for
          the biologically most active Vitamin D metabolite,
          1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1alpha,25(OH)2D3). The
          binding of the ligand to the receptor induces a
          conformational change of the ligand binding domain
          (LBD) with consequent dissociation of corepressors.
          Upon ligand binding, VDR forms a heterodimer with the
          retinoid X receptor (RXR) that binds to vitamin D
          response elements (VDREs), recruits coactivators. This

          receptors: glucocorticoid receptor (GR),
          mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), progesterone receptor
          (PR), and androgen receptor (AR). The receptors bind to
          common DNA elements containing a partial palindrome of
          the core sequence 5'-TGTTCT-3' with a 3bp spacer. These
          four receptors regulate some of the most fundamental
          physiological functions such as the stress response,

           is composed of two C4-type zinc fingers. Each zinc
           finger contains a group of four Cys residues which

           upstream of the target gene and modulates the rate of
           transcriptional initiation. The estrogen
           receptor-related receptors (ERRs) are transcriptional
           regulators, which are closely related to the estrogen
           receptor (ER) family.  Although ERRs lack the ability to

           they share target genes, co-regulators and promoters
           with the estrogen receptor (ER) family. By targeting the

          zinc fingers. Each zinc finger contains a group of four
          Cys residues which co-ordinates a single zinc atom. CAR
          DBD interacts with CAR response element, a perfect

          of the target gene, and modulates the rate of
          transcriptional initiation. The constitutive androstane

          factor that responds to a diverse array of chemically
          distinct ligands, including many endogenous compounds
          and clinical drugs. It functions as a heterodimer with
          RXR. The CAR/RXR heterodimer binds many common response
          elements in the promoter regions of a diverse set of
          target genes involved in the metabolism, transport, and
          ultimately, elimination of these molecules from the
          body. CAR is a closest mammalian relative of PXR and is
          activated by some of the same ligands as PXR and
          regulates a subset of common genes. The sequence
          homology and functional similarity suggests that the
          CAR gene arose from a duplication of an ancestral PXR
          gene. Like other nuclear receptors, CAR has a central

          is composed of two C4-type zinc fingers. Each zinc
          finger contains a group of four Cys residues which

          operates as cholesterol sensor which protects cells

           domain of androgen receptor (AR) is composed of two
           C4-type zinc fingers. Each zinc finger contains a group
           of four Cys residues which co-ordinates a single zinc
           atom. To regulate gene expression, AR interacts with a
           palindrome of the core sequence 5'-TGTTCT-3' with a 3-bp
           spacer. It also binds to the direct repeat  5'-TGTTCT-3'
           hexamer in some androgen controlled genes. AR is
           activated by the androgenic hormones, testosterone or
           dihydrotestosterone, which are responsible for primary
           and for secondary male characteristics, respectively.
           The primary mechanism of action of ARs is by direct
           regulation of gene transcription. The binding of
           androgen results in a conformational change in the
           androgen receptor which causes its transport from the
           cytosol into the cell nucleus, and dimerization. The
           receptor dimer binds to a hormone response element of AR
           regulated genes and modulates their expression. Another
           mode of action of androgen receptor is independent of
           their interactions with DNA. The receptor interacts
           directly with signal transduction proteins in the
           cytoplasm, causing rapid changes in cell function, such
