Words similar to ncor
Example sentences for: ncor
How can you use “ncor” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
RAR/RXR binding to nuclear receptor corepressors such as NCoR and SMRT in the absence of ligand inhibits activation of RA responsive genes [ 3 4 ] . Ligand binding displaces the repressors and recruits coactivator proteins such as CBP which have histone acetyltransferase activity [ 5 ] . Histone acetylation allows for chromatin unwinding and transcriptional initiation of target gene expression [ 6 ] .
In the absence of cognate hormone, several nuclear receptors actively repress transcription of target genes via interactions with the nuclear receptor corepressors SMRT and NCoR.
NCoR, nuclear receptor co-repressor
Recent results suggest that CAR can interact with NCoR or SMRT in the presence of inverse agonists [ 24 ] , although such interactions appear much weaker than those of other receptors.
The RARα amino terminus is not known to interact with CBP or its associated factor PCAF [ 5 18 ] . Additionally, RARs bind to the interaction domains of repressor proteins such as NCoR via region D of the receptor rather than the amino terminus [ 4 ] . Despite the lack of obvious interaction of the RAR amino terminus with nuclear receptor cofactors, the S77A mutation may alter the three dimensional structure of the receptor.
