Thus, ERβ interactions with N-CoR are dependent on the AF-2 surface (including H12) and, in this regard, resemble those of ERβ and GRIP1.
A number of RXR heterodimer complexes have been categorized as either permissive or non-permissive based on their responses to RXR ligands [ 1 ] . Although there are some reported discrepancies, the PPAR, FXR and NGF-IB/NURR1 complexes are generally considered permissive, while the non-permissive group includes the RAR, TR and VDR complexes (see [ 2 3 4 5 6 7 ] ). In the permissive complexes, coactivators can presumably bind to the AF-2 surface of both partners and binding to the RXR partner is stimulated by rexinoid agonists.
Previously we characterized another RARα mutant in which the receptor protein was truncated after amino acid 403, thereby deleting the AF-2 domain [ 11 ] . This truncated receptor exhibited similar properties to the S77A mutant (growth inhibition and repression of RA responsive gene expression including EGFR).
It has previously been shown that phosphorylation of the RARγ2 AF-1 is indispensable for primitive endoderm differentiation [ 59].
This sequence does not exactly conform to the LXXLL consensus, but contains features (underlined) that resemble the ERβ H12 region (L L LE ML ), and artificial ERβ interacting LXXLL peptides (293, P NLIS LLS ; D47, PL LLS LLS ), both of which bind to the ERβ AF-2 surface [ 43 44 45 46 47 ] . Moreover, the presence of a proline residue amino-terminal to the hydrophobic groups is typical of so-called class II LXXLL motifs which are found in ERβ interacting cofactors such as TRAP220 and RIP140 [ 45 ] . Finally, the unusual C-terminal hydrophobic pair (ML) has been observed in ERα and ERβ H12 [ 43 44 48 ] , and in RIP140 NR boxes [ 19 ] .
