>gnl|CDD|132748 cd06950, NR_LBD_Tlx_PNR_like, The ligand binding domain of
           Tailless-like proteins,  orphan nuclear receptors.  The
           ligand binding domain of the photoreceptor cell-specific
           nuclear receptor (PNR)  like family: This family
           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
           ligand-activated transcription factors, TLX and PNR
           have  a central well conserved DNA binding domain (DBD),
           a variable N-terminal domain, a flexible hinge and a
           C-terminal ligand binding domain (LBD).

>gnl|CDD|132746 cd06948, NR_LBD_COUP-TF, Ligand binding domain of chicken ovalbumin
           upstream promoter transcription factors, a member of the
           nuclear receptor family.  The ligand binding domain of
           chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter transcription
           factors (COUP-TFs): COUP-TFs are orphan members of the
           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).

>gnl|CDD|132728 cd06930, NR_LBD_F2, Ligand-binding domain of nuclear receptor
           family 2.  Ligand-binding domain (LBD) of nuclear
           receptor (NR) family 2:  This is one of the major
           subfamily of nuclear receptors, including some well
           known nuclear receptors such as glucocorticoid receptor
           (GR), mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), estrogen receptor
           (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and androgen receptor
           (AR), other related receptors. 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

>gnl|CDD|132750 cd06952, NR_LBD_TR2_like, The ligand binding domain of the orphan
           nuclear receptors TR4 and TR2.  The ligand binding
           domain of the TR4 and TR2 (human testicular receptor 4
           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
           proliferator-activated receptor. TR4/2 binds to HREs as
           a dimer. Like other members of the nuclea r receptor
           (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated transcription
           factors, TR2-like receptors  have  a central well
           conserved DNA binding domain (DBD), a variable
           N-terminal domain, a flexible hinge and a C-terminal
           ligand binding domain (LBD).

>gnl|CDD|132729 cd06931, NR_LBD_HNF4_like, The ligand binding domain of heptocyte
           nuclear factor 4, which is explosively expanded in
           nematodes.  The ligand binding domain of hepatocyte
           nuclear factor 4 (HNF4) like proteins: 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
           hinge and a C-terminal ligand binding domain (LBD). The
           LBD domain is also responsible for recruiting
           co-activator proteins. More than 280 nuclear receptors
           are found in C. ele gans, most of which are originated
           from an explosive burst of duplications of HNF4.

>gnl|CDD|132741 cd06943, NR_LBD_RXR_like, The ligand binding domain of the retinoid
           X receptor and Ultraspiracle, members of nuclear
           receptor superfamily.  The ligand binding domain of the
           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
           component in the heterodimeric complex with partner

           (dosage-sensitive sex reversal adrenal hypoplasia

           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.

           related nuclear receptor proteins, members of nuclear
           receptor superfamily.  The ligand binding domain of
           nuclear receptor Nurr1_like: This family of nuclear
           receptors, including Nurr1, Nerve growth
           factor-induced-B (NGFI-B) and DHR38 are involved in the
           embryo development. Nurr1 is a transcription factor that
           is expressed in the embryonic ventral midbrain and is
           critical for the development of dopamine (DA) neurons.
           Structural studies have shown that the ligand binding
           pocket of Nurr1 is filled by bulky hydrophobic residues,
           making it unable to bind to ligands. Therefore, it
           belongs to the class of orphan receptors. However, Nurr1
           forms heterodimers with RXR and can promote signaling
           via its partner, RXR. NGFI-B is an early immediate gene
           product of embryo development that is rapidly produced
           in response to a variety of cellular signals including
           nerve growth factor. It is involved in T-cell-mediated
           apoptosis, as well as neuronal differentiation and
           function. NGFI-B regulates transcription by binding to a
           specific DNA target upstream of its target genes and
           regulating the rate of tr anscriptional initiation.
           Another group of receptor in this family is DHR38.
           DHR38 is the Drosophila homolog to the vertebrate
           NGFI-B-type orphan receptor. It interacts with the USP
           component of the ecdysone receptor complex, suggesting
           that DHR38 might modulate ecdysone-triggered signals in
           the fly, in addition to the ECR/USP pathway. Nurr1_like
           proteins exhibit a modular structure that is
           characteristic for nuclear receptors; they 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).

           The ligand binding domain of nuclear receptor DHR38_like
           proteins:  DHR38 is a member of the steroid receptor
           superfamily in Drosophila. DHR38 interacts with the USP

           that DHR38 might modulate ecdysone-triggered signals in
           the fly, in addition to the ECR/USP pathway. At least
           four differentially expressed mRNA isoforms have been
           detected during development. Like other members of the
           nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated
           transcription factors, DHR38 has  a central well

           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.  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

           processes including reproduction, bone integrity,
           cardiovascular health, and behavior. The main mechanism
           of action of the estrogen receptor is as a transcription
           factor by binding to the estrogen response element of
           target genes upon activation by estrogen and then
           recruiting coactivator proteins which are responsible
           for the transcription of target genes. Additionally some
           ERs may associate with other membrane proteins and can
           be rapidly activated by exposure of cells to estrogen.
           Like other members of the nuclear receptor (NR)

           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
           responsive genes and interacts with co-activators. There
           are three subtypes of peroxisome proliferator activated
           receptors, alpha, beta (or delta), and gamma, each with
           a distinct tissue distribution. Several essential fatty
           acids, oxidized lipids and prostaglandin J derivatives
           can bind and activate PPAR.  Like other members of the
           nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated
           transcription factors, PPAR has a central well conserved
           DNA binding domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal
           regulatory domain, a flexible hinge a nd a C-terminal
           ligand binding domain (LBD).

           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
           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

           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

           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

           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

           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

           receptor, a member of the nuclear hormone receptor.  The
           ligand binding domain of the progesterone receptor (PR):
           PR is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of
           ligand dependent transcription factors, mediating the
           biological actions of progesterone. PR functions in a
           variety of biological processes including development of
           the mammary gland, regulating cell cycle progression,
           protein processing, and metabolism. When no binding
           hormone is present the carboxyl terminal inhibits
           transcription. Binding to a hormone induces a structural
           change that removes the inhibitory action. After
           progesterone binds to the receptor, PR forms a dimer and
           the complex enters the nucleus where it interacts with
           the hormone response element (HRE) in the promoters of
           progesterone responsive genes and alters their
           transcription. In addition, rapid actions of PR that
           occur independent of transcription, have also been
           observed in several tissues like brain, liver, mammary
           gland and spermatozoa. There are two natural PR isoforms
           called PR-A and PR-B. PR-B has an additional stretc h of
           164 amino acids at the N terminus. The extra domain in
           PR-B performs activation functions by recruiting
           coactivators  that could not be recruited by PR-A. Like
           other members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily
           of ligand-activated transcription factors, PR 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).  The LBD is not
           only involved in binding to progesterone, but also
           involved in coactivator binding and dimerization.

           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
           binding domain (DBD), a variable N-terminal domain, a
           flexible hinge and a C-terminal ligand binding domain
           (LBD).

>gnl|CDD|132761 cd07076, NR_LBD_GR, Ligand binding domain of the glucocorticoid
           receptor, a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily. 
           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
           other members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily
           of ligand-activated transcription factors, GR 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). The LBD also
           functions for dimerization and chaperone protein
           association.

           androgen receptor, ligand activated transcription
           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
           the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of
           ligand-activated transcription factors, AR 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).  The LBD is not
           only involved in binding to androgen, but also involved
           in binding of coactivator proteins and dimerization. A
           ligand dependent nuclear export signal is also present
           at the ligand binding domain.

           only known eukaryotic selenoprotein that contains
           multiple selenocysteine (Sec) residues, and accounts for
           more than 50% of the selenium content of rat and human
           plasma. It is thought to be glycosylated. SelP may have
           antioxidant properties. It can attach to epithelial
           cells, and may protect vascular endothelial cells
           against peroxynitrite toxicity. The high selenium
           content of SelP suggests that it may be involved in
           selenium intercellular transport or storage. The
           promoter structure of bovine SelP suggest that it may be
           involved in countering heavy metal intoxication, and may
           also have a developmental function. The N-terminal
           region of SelP can exist independently of the C terminal
           region. Zebrafish selenoprotein Pb lacks the C terminal
           Sec-rich region, and a protein encoded by the rat SelP
           gene and lacking this region has also been reported.
           N-terminal region contains a conserved SecxxCys motif,
           which is similar to the CysxxCys found in thioredoxins.
           It is speculated that the N terminal region may adopt a
           thioredoxin fold and catalyze redox reactions. The
           N-terminal region also contains a His-rich region, which
           is thought to mediate heparin binding. Binding to
           heparan proteoglycans could account for the membrane
           binding properties of SelP. The function of the
           bacterial members of this family is uncharcterised.

           receptors:glucocorticoid receptor, mineralocorticoid
           receptor , progesterone receptor, and androgen receptor.
            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
           chaperone proteins and coregulator proteins. Like other
           members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of
           ligand-activated transcription factors, GR, MR, PR, and
           AR share the same modular structure with a central well

>gnl|CDD|132760 cd07075, NR_LBD_MR, Ligand binding domain of the mineralocorticoid
           receptor, a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily. 
           The ligand binding domain of the mineralocorticoid
           receptor (MR): MR, also called aldosterone receptor, is
           a member of nuclear receptor superfamily involved in the
           regulation of electrolyte and fluid balance. The
           receptor is activated by mineralocorticoids such as
           aldosterone and deoxycorticosterone as well as
           glucocorticoids, like cortisol and cortisone. Binding of
           its ligand results in its translocation to the cell
           nucleus, homodimerization and binding to hormone
           response elements (HREs) present in the promoter of MR
           controlled genes. This results in the recruitment of the
           coactivators and the transcription of the activated
           genes. MR is expressed in many tissues and its
           activation results in the expression of proteins
           regulating electrolyte and fluid balance. Like other
           members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of
           ligand-activated transcription factors, MR 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 ). The LBD, in
           addition to binding ligand, contains a ligand-dependent
           activation function-2 (AF-2).

>gnl|CDD|132737 cd06939, NR_LBD_ROR_like, The ligand binding domain of
           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).

           Caenorhabditis elegans nuclear hormone receptor Sex-1
           protein like: Sex-1 protein of C. elegans is a
           transcription factor belonging to the nuclear receptor
           superfamily. Sex-1 plays pivotal role in sex fate of C.
           elegans by regulating the transcription of the
           sex-determination gene xol-1, which specifies male (XO)
           fate when active and hermaphrodite (XX) fate when
           inactive. The Sex-1 protein directly represses xol-1
           transcription by binding to its promoter. However, the
           active ligand for Sex-1 protein has not yet been
           identified. Like other members of the nuclear receptor
           (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated transcription
           factors, Sex-1 like receptors have a central well
