NR interactions with N-CoR are usually mediated by a hydrophobic cleft that spans residues from H3 and H5 and includes residues that lie under H12 in the liganded configuration [ 4 17 ] . These interactions are either independent of, or inhibited by, NR H12 [ 17 39 42 ] . By contrast, NR interactions with coactivators are mediated by residues from the upper part of H3-H5 and also require H12 itself [ 18 ] . Fig.
