Expression of a retinoic acid response element-hsplacZ transgene defines specific domains of transcriptional activity during mouse embryogenesis.
Treatment with retinoic acid (RA) is known to produce complex teratogenic effects in vertebrates, and its presence in the developing embryo as an endogenous substance has led to the suggestion that… Expand

Differential Control of Bmal1 Circadian Transcription by REV-ERB and ROR Nuclear Receptors
Circadian rhythms result from feedback loops involving clock genes and their protein products. In mammals, 2 orphan nuclear receptors, REV-ERBα and RORα, play important roles in the transcription of… Expand

Cloning, chromosomal localization, and functional analysis of the murine estrogen receptor beta.
Estrogen receptor beta (ER beta) is a novel steroid receptor that is expressed in rat prostate and ovary. We have cloned the mouse homolog of ER beta and mapped the gene, designated Estrb, to the… Expand

Identification of a new class of steroid hormone receptors
The gonads and adrenal glands produce steroids classified into five major groups which include the oestrogens, progestins, androgens, glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. Gonadal steroids control… Expand

Isoform-specific amino-terminal domains dictate DNA-binding properties of ROR alpha, a novel family of orphan hormone nuclear receptors.
Three isoforms of a novel member of the steroid hormone nuclear receptor superfamily related to the retinoic acid receptors have been identified. The three isoforms, referred to as ROR alpha 1, ROR… Expand

Placental abnormalities in mouse embryos lacking the orphan nuclear receptor ERR-β
Classical endocrine studies have shown that steroid hormones are required for the maintenance of pregnancy and placental viability. The oestrogen-receptor-related receptor β (ERR-β) is an orphan… Expand

Ligand-independent recruitment of SRC-1 to estrogen receptor beta through phosphorylation of activation function AF-1.
The estrogen receptors (ERs) alpha and beta possess a constitutive N-terminal activation function (AF-1) whose activity can be modulated by kinase signalling pathways. We demonstrate here that… Expand
