NTD Amino terminal domain
While the ER isoforms have contrasting effects on AP-1 activity in the presence of estrogens, ERα truncations that lack the NTD and ERβ both enhance AP-1 activity in the presence of SERMs [ 30 31 ] . Mutational analysis of ERα action at AP-1 sites suggests these effects may be related to N-CoR binding [ 39 ] , and we have proposed that SERM action at AP-1 sites may therefore involve contacts with corepressors [ 31 51 ] . The fact that ERα and ERβ show completely different ligand preferences of interaction with N-CoR suggests that the target for SERM activation at AP-1 sites may not be N-CoR in both cases.
Although the poorly conserved NTD region clearly plays an important role in isoform-specificity [ 32 33 ] , it is also likely that there are differences in the better conserved LBD region that contribute to differential ERα and ERβ activities.
