3 UCLEAR RECEPTR Introduction uclear receptors, also referred to as nuclear hormone receptors, are a subset of ligand-activated transcription factors that can bind to specific sites on DA and recruit transcription machinery, influencing gene expression. The 48 known nuclear receptors have been broadly classified into six main groups according to their sequence, with an additional, non-da binding group of receptors DAX-like receptors (group 0) also described (Figure 1).

4 Tocris Product Listing eries Introduction continued All nuclear receptors comprise five major domains: an -terminal regulatory domain, a DA-binding domain, a hinge region, a ligand-binding domain and a C-terminal domain (Figure 2). ome of these domains, such as the DA-binding domain, are highly conserved between nuclear receptors whereas others, for example the -terminal regulatory domain, are more variable. In addition to the phylogenetic classification of nuclear receptors (as described by the uclear omenclature Committee), nuclear receptors can also be separated into distinct types according to their functional characteristics. The principal difference between the types is in the location of the unbound nuclear receptor; prior to ligand binding, some nuclear receptors are located in the cytosol in a complex with heat shock proteins, whereas others exist in the nucleus where they bind to DA in a complex with transcriptional corepressors. The involvement of nuclear receptors in almost every cellular process, coupled with their innate ability to bind ligands and influence transcription, has led to significant drug discovery programs targeted at these receptors. Indeed, synthetic ligands for nuclear receptors such as estrogen receptors, glucocorticoid receptors and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, are currently used in the treatment of cancer, inflammatory disorders and metabolic disorders respectively. Further research into the physiological functions of these receptors may identify additional therapeutic targets within the nuclear receptor family.
