>gnl|CDD|132738 cd06940, NR_LBD_REV_ERB, The ligand binding domain of REV-ERB
           receptors, members of the nuclear receptor superfamily. 
           The ligand binding domain (LBD) of REV-ERB receptors:
           REV-ERBs are transcriptional regulators belonging to the
           nuclear receptor superfamily. They regulate a number of
           physiological functions including the circadian rhythm,
           lipid metabolism, and cellular differentiation. The LBD
           domain of REV-ERB is unusual   in the nuclear receptor
           family by lacking the AF-2 region that is responsible
           for coactivator interaction.  REV-ERBs act as
           constitutive repressors because of their inability to
           bind coactivators.  REV-ERB receptors can bind to two
           classes of DNA response elements as either a monomer or
           heterodimer, indicating functional diversity. When bound
           to the DNA, they recruit corepressors (NcoR/histone
           deacetylase 3) to the promoter, resulting in repression
           of the target gene. The porphyrin heme has been
           demonstrated to function as a ligand for REV-ERB. Like
           other members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily
           of ligand-activated transcription factors, REV-ERB
           receptors have a central well conserved DNA binding
           domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal domain, a
           non-conserved hinge and a C-terminal ligand binding
           domain (LBD).

           family 1.  Ligand-binding domain (LBD) of nuclear
           receptor (NR) family 1:  This is one of the major
           subfamily of nuclear receptors, including thyroid
           receptor, retinoid acid receptor, ecdysone receptor,
           farnesoid X receptor, vitamin D receptor, and other

           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

           Retinoid-related orphan receptors, of the nuclear
           receptor superfamily.  The ligand binding domain (LBD)
           of Retinoid-related orphan receptors (RORs):
           Retinoid-related orphan receptors (RORs) are
           transcription factors belonging to the nuclear receptor
           superfamily. 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. Transcription
           regulation by RORs is mediated through certain
           corepressors, as well as coactivators. There are three
           subtypes of retinoid-related orphan receptors (RORs),
           alpha, beta, and gamma that 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 su ggested that cholesterol or a cholesterol
           derivative is the natural ligand of RORalpha. Like other
           members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of
           ligand-activated transcription factors, retinoid-related
           orphan receptors have a central well conserved DNA
           binding domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal domain, a
           non-conserved hinge and a C-terminal ligand binding
           domain (LBD).

           superfamily.  E78 is a product of the ecdysone-inducible
           gene found in an early late puff locus at position 78C
           during the onset of Drosophila metamorphosis. Two
           isoforms of E78, E78A and E78B, are expressed from two

           Platyhelminth Schistosoma mansoni (SmE78) has also been
           identified. It is the first E78 orthologue known outside

           Ligand-binding domain (LBD) of nuclear receptor (NR):
           Nuclear receptors form a superfamily of ligand-activated

>gnl|CDD|132752 cd06954, NR_LBD_LXR, The ligand binding domain of Liver X
           receptors, a family of nuclear receptors of
           ligand-activated transcription factors.  The ligand
           binding domain of Liver X receptors: Liver X receptors
           (LXRs) belong to a family of nuclear receptors of
           ligand-activated transcription factors. LXRs operate as
           cholesterol sensors which protect from cholesterol
           overload by stimulating reverse cholesterol transport
           from peripheral tissues to the liver and its excretion
           in the bile. Oxidized cholesterol derivatives or
           oxysterols were identified as specific ligands for LXRs.
           Upon ligand binding a conformational change leads to
           recruitment of co-factors, which stimulates expression
           of target genes. Among the LXR target genes are several
           genes involved in cholesterol efflux from peripheral
           tissues such as the ATP-binding-cassette transporters
           ABCA1, ABCG1 and ApoE. There are two LXR isoforms in
           mammals, LXRalpha and LXRbeta. LXRalpha is expressed
           mainly in the liver, intestine, kidney, spleen, and
           adipose tissue, whereas LXRbeta is ubiquitously
           expressed at lower level. Both LXRalpha and LXRbeta
           function as heterodimers with the retinoid X receptor
           (RX R) which may be activated by either LXR ligands or
           9-cis retinoic acid, a specific RXR ligand. The LXR/RXR
           complex binds to a liver X receptor response element
           (LXRE) in the promoter region of target genes. LXR has
           typical NR modular structure with a central well
           conserved DNA binding domain (DBD), a variable
           N-terminal domain, a flexible hinge and the ligand
           binding domain (LBD) at the C-terminal.

           PPARs play important roles in regulating cellular
           differentiation, development and lipid metabolism.
           Activated PPAR forms a heterodimer with the retinoid X
           receptor (RXR) that binds to the hormone response
           element located upstream of the peroxisome proliferator

           receptor, a members of a superfamily of nuclear
           receptors.  The ligand binding domain (LBD) of thyroid
           hormone receptors: Thyroid hormone receptors are members
           of a superfamily of nuclear receptors. Thyroid hormone
           receptors (TR) mediate 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

           acid receptor (RAR), a members of the nuclear receptor
           superfamily.  The ligand binding domain (LBD) of
           retinoic acid receptor (RAR): Retinoic acid receptors
           are members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of
           ligand-regulated transcription factors. RARs mediate the
           biological effect of retinoids, including both naturally
           dietary vitamin A (retinol) metabolites and active
           synthetic analogs. Retinoids play key roles in a wide
           variety of essential biological processes, such as
           vertebrate embryonic morphogenesis and organogenesis,
           differentiation and apoptosis, and homeostasis. RARs
           function as heterodimers with retinoic X receptors by
           binding to specific RAR response elements (RAREs) found
           in the promoter regions of retinoid target genes. In the
           absence of ligand, the RAR-RXR heterodimer recruits the
           corepressor proteins NCoR or AMRT, and associated
           factors such as histone deacetylases or
           DNA-methyltransferases, leading to an inactive condensed
           chromatin structure, preventing transcription. Upon
           ligand binding, the corepressors are released, and
           coactivator complexes such as histone acetyltransferase
           or histone arginine methyltransferases are recruited to
           activate transcription. There are three RAR subtypes
           (alpha, beta, gamma), originating from three distinct
           genes. For each subtype, several isoforms exist that
           differ in their N-terminal region, allowing retinoids to
           exert their pleiotropic effects. Like other members of
           the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of
           ligand-activated transcription factors, retinoic acid
           receptors have a central well conserved DNA binding

           to the superfamily of nuclear receptors (NRs) of
           ligand-dependent transcription factors. Ecdysone
           receptor is present only in invertebrates and regulates
           the expression of a large number of genes during
           development and reproduction. ECR functions as a
           heterodimer by partnering with ultraspiracle protein
           (USP), the ortholog of the vertebrate retinoid X
           receptor (RXR). The natural ligands of ecdysone receptor
           are ecdysteroids#the endogenous steroidal hormones found
           in invertebrates. In addition, insecticide
           bisacylhydrazine used against pests has shown to act on
           EcR. EcR must be dimerised with a USP for high-affinity
           ligand binding to occur. The ligand binding triggers a
           conformational change in the C-terminal part of the EcR
           ligand-binding domain that leads to transcriptional
           activation of genes controlled by EcR. Like other

           binding domain (LBD) of Farnesoid X receptor: Farnesoid
           X receptor (FXR) is a member of the nuclear receptor
           superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors.
           FXR is highly expressed in the liver, the intestine, the
           kidney, and the adrenals.  FXR plays key roles in the
           regulation of bile acid, cholesterol, triglyceride, and
           glucose metabolism. Evidences show that it also
           regulates liver regeneration. Upon binding of ligands,
           such as bile acid, an endogenous ligand, FXRs bind to
           FXR response elements (FXREs) either as a monomer or as
           a heterodimer with retinoid X receptor (RXR), and
           regulate the expression of various genes involved in
           bile acid, lipid, and glucose metabolism. There are two
           FXR genes (FXRalpha and FXRbeta) in mammals. A single
           FXRalpha gene encodes four isoforms resulting from
           differential use of promoters and alternative splicing.
           FXRbeta is a functional receptor in mice, rats, rabbits
           and dogs, but is a pseudogene in humans and primates.
           Like other members of the nuclear receptor (NR)
           superfamily, farnesoid X receptors have a central well
           conserved DNA binding domain (DBD), a variable

           retinoid X receptor (RXR) and Ultraspiracle (USP): This
           family includes two evolutionary related nuclear
           receptors: retinoid X receptor (RXR) and Ultraspiracle
           (USP). RXR is a nuclear receptor in mammalian and USP is
           its counterpart in invertebrates.  The native ligand of
           retinoid X receptor is 9-cis retinoic acid (RA). RXR
           functions as a DNA binding partner by forming
           heterodimers with other nuclear receptors including CAR,
           FXR, LXR, PPAR, PXR, RAR, TR, and VDR. RXRs can play
           different roles in these heterodimers. It 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. Ultraspiracle
           (USP) plays similar roles as DNA binding partner of
           other nuclear rec eptors in invertebrates. USP has no
           known high-affinity ligand and is thought to be a silent

           receptors:pregnane X receptor and constitutive
           androstane receptor.  The ligand binding domain of
           xenobiotic receptors: This xenobiotic receptor family
           includes pregnane X receptor (PXR), constitutive
           androstane receptor (CAR) and other related nuclear
           receptors.  They function as sensors of toxic byproducts
           of cell metabolism and of exogenous chemicals, to
           facilitate their elimination. The nuclear receptor
           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. The ligand binding domain
           of PXR shows remarkable flexibility to accommodate both
           large and small molecules. PXR functions as a
           heterodimer with retinoic X receptor-alpha (RXRa) and
           binds to a variety of response elements in the promoter
           regions of a diverse set of target genes involved in the
           metabolism, transport, and elimination of these
           molecules from the cell. Constitutive androstane
           receptor (CAR) is a closest mammalian relative of PXR,
           which has also been proposed to function as a
           xenosensor. CAR 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,
           xenobiotic receptors have a central well conserved DNA

           receptors, a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily.
            The ligand binding domain of vitamin D receptors (VDR):
           VDR is a member of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily
           that functions as classical endocrine receptors. VDR
           controls a wide 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 heterodimer
           with the retinoid X receptor (RXR) that binds to vitamin
           D response elements (VDREs), recruits coactivators. This
           leads to the expression of a large number of genes.
           Approximately 200 human genes are considered to be
           primary targets of VDR and even more genes are regulated
           indirectly. Like other members of the nuclear receptor
           (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated transcription
           factors, VDR 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).

           Structural studies have shown that the ligand binding

           steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily. They are
           expressed in many tissues and are involved in the
           regulation of several important biological processes,
           such as neurogenesis, organogenesis, cell fate
           determination, and metabolic homeostasis. In mammals two
           isoforms named COUP-TFI and COUP-TFII have been
           identified. Both genes show an exceptional homology and
           overlapping expression patterns, suggesting that they
           may serve redundant functions. Although COUP-TF was
           originally characterized as a transcriptional activator
           of the chicken ovalbumin gene, COUP-TFs are generally
           considered to be repressors of transcription for other
           nuclear hormone receptors, such as retinoic acid
           receptor (RAR), thyroid hormone receptor (TR), vitamin D
           receptor (VDR), peroxisome proliferator activated
           receptor (PPAR), and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 (HNF4).
           Like other members of the nuclear receptor (NR)
           superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors,
           COUP-TFs  have  a central well cons erved DNA binding
           domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal domain, a flexible
           hinge and a C-terminal ligand binding domain (LBD).

           and 2):  TR4 and TR2 are orphan nuclear receptors.
           Several isoforms of TR4 and TR2 have been isolated in
           various tissues. 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. The expression of TR2 is negatively regulated
           by androgen, retinoids, and radiation. The expression of
           both mouse TR2 and TR4 is up-regulated by neurocytokine
           ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) in mouse. It has
           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, peroxisome

           a dimer. Like other members of the nuclea r receptor

           The ligand binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor
           (GR): GR is a ligand-activated transcription factor
           belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily. It binds
           with high affinity to cortisol and other
           glucocorticoids. GR is expressed in almost every cell in
           the body and regulates genes controlling a wide variety
           of processes including the development, metabolism, and
           immune response of the organism. In the absence of
           hormone, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is complexes
           with a variety of heat shock proteins in the cytosol.
           The binding of the glucocorticoids results in release of
           the heat shock proteins and transforms it to its active
           state. One mechanism of action of GR is by direct
           activation of gene transcription. The activated form of
           GR forms dimers, translocates into the nucleus, and
           binds to specific hormone responsive elements,
           activating gene transcription. GR can also function as a
           repressor of other gene transcription activators, such
           as NF-kappaB and AF-1 by directly binding to them, and
           bloc king the expression of their activated genes. Like

           includes photoreceptor cell-specific nuclear receptor
           (PNR), Tailless (TLX), and related receptors. 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. 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. Like other members
           of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of

          DNA-binding domain of REV-ERB receptor- like is
          composed of two C4-type zinc fingers. Each zinc finger
          contains a group of four Cys residues which coordinates
          a single zinc atom. This domain interacts with specific
          DNA sites upstream of the target gene and modulates the
          rate of transcriptional initiation. REV-ERB receptors
          are transcriptional regulators belonging to the nuclear
          receptor superfamily. They regulate a number of
          physiological functions including the circadian rhythm,
          lipid metabolism, and cellular differentiation. REV-ERB
          receptors bind as a monomer to a (A/G)GGTCA half-site
          with a 5' AT-rich extension or as a homodimer to a
          direct repeat 2 element (AGGTCA sequence with a 2-bp
          spacer), indicating functional diversity. When bound to
          the DNA, they recruit corepressors (NcoR/histone
          deacetylase 3) to the promoter, resulting in repression
          of the target genes. The porphyrin heme has been
          demonstrated to function as a ligand for REV-ERB
          receptor. Like other members of the 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 required at
           several stages of development. Particularly, FTZ-F1
           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

            The ligand binding domain of GR_like nuclear receptors:
           This family of NRs includes four distinct, but closely
           related nuclear hormone receptors: glucocorticoid
           receptor (GR), mineralocorticoid receptor (MR),
           progesterone receptor (PR), and androgen receptor (AR).
           These four receptors play key roles in some of the most
           fundamental physiological functions such as the stress
           response, metabolism, electrolyte homeostasis, immune
           function, growth, development, and reproduction. The NRs
           in this family use multiple signaling pathways and share
           similar functional mechanisms.  The dominant signaling
           pathway is via direct DNA binding and transcriptional
           regulation of target genes. Another mechanism is via
           protein-protein interactions, mainly with other
           transcription factors such as nuclear factor-kappaB and
           activator protein-1, to regulate gene expression
           patterns. Both pathways can up-regulate or down-regulate
           gene expression and require ligand activation of the
           receptor and recruitment of other cofactors such as

           regulator.  The ligand binding domain of the androgen
           receptor (AR): AR is a member of the nuclear receptor
           family. It is activated by binding either of the
           androgenic hormones, testosterone or
           dihydrotestosterone, which are responsible for male
           primary sexual characteristics and for secondary male
           characteristics, respectively. The primary mechanism of
           action of ARs is by direct regulation of gene
           transcription. The binding of an 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 is
           independent of their interactions with DNA. The
           receptors interact directly with signal transduction
           proteins in the cytoplasm, causing rapid changes in cell
           function, such as ion transport. Like other members of

>gnl|CDD|132749 cd06951, NR_LBD_Dax1_like, The ligand binding domain of DAX1
           protein, a nuclear receptor lacking DNA binding domain. 
           The ligand binding domain of DAX1-like proteins: This
           orphan nuclear receptor family includes  DAX1
           (dosage-sensitive sex reversal adrenal hypoplasia
           congenita critical region on chromosome X gene 1) and
           the Small Heterodimer Partner (SHP). Both receptors have
           a typical ligand binding domain, but lack the DNA
           binding domain, typical to almost all of the nuclear
           receptors. They function as a transcriptional
           coregulator by directly interacting with other nuclear
           receptors. DAX1 and SHP can form heterodimers with each
           other, as well as with many other nuclear receptors. In
           addition, DAX1 can also form homodimers. DAX1 plays an
           important role in the normal development of several
           hormone-producing tissues.  SHP has shown to regulate a
           variety of target genes.
