Nuclear receptors that bind to retinoids
Retinoid receptors are type II nuclear receptors (a class of proteins) that bind to retinoids. When bound to a retinoid, they act as transcription factors, altering the expression of genes with corresponding response elements.
Subtypes include:
|
---|
(1) Basic domains |
---|
(1.1) Basic leucine zipper (bZIP) | |
---|
(1.2) Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) | Group A | |
---|
Group B | |
---|
Group C bHLH-PAS | |
---|
Group D | |
---|
Group E | |
---|
Group F bHLH-COE | |
---|
|
---|
(1.3) bHLH-ZIP | |
---|
(1.4) NF-1 | |
---|
(1.5) RF-X | |
---|
(1.6) Basic helix-span-helix (bHSH) | |
---|
|
|
(2) Zinc finger DNA-binding domains |
