    Keywords : Thyroid hormone receptor; regulatory response element; palindrome; directrepeat; everted repeat; DNA hinding domain; P75gag-v-erbA; differentiation; nuclearlocalization; repression.;

    Abstract : The thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are encoded by two genes, alpha and ß, and belong to a family of hormone activated nuclear receptors. This family includes the receptors for retinoids and vitamin D3 as well as the receptors for steroid hormones. READ MORE

  2. 2. Transcriptional regulation by the thyroid hormone receptor and its viral counterpart : the P75gag-V-erbA oncoprotein

    Author : Gunilla Wahlström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Transcriptional regulation; thyroid hormone; TR; P75gag-v-erbA; repression; Avian erythroblastosis virus; response elements; RXR; retinoids.;

    Abstract : Thyroid hormone binds to specific DNA binding receptors (TRs) in the cell nucleus and thus regulates transcription during development and in some pathological disorders. The gene of the viral TR homologue, v-erbA, is one of two oncogenes encoded in the genome of avian erythroblastosis virus (AEV). READ MORE
