Identifying the receptor subtype selectivity of retinoid X and retinoic acid receptors via quantum mechanics
Understanding and identifying the receptor subtype selectivity of a ligand is an important issue in the field of drug discovery. Using a combination of classical molecular mechanics and quantum mechanical calculations, this report assesses the receptor subtype selectivity for the human retinoid X receptor (hRXR) and retinoic acid receptor (hRAR) ligand-binding domains (LBDs) complexed with reti...
متن کاملRetinoid receptors cause distortion of the retinoic acid response element in the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase gene promoter.
Functional retinoic acid response elements (RAREs) have been described wherein the direct repeats are separated by 1, 2 or 5 bp (termed DR1, DR2 and DR5 respectively). We have previously shown that retinoic acid receptor/retinoid X receptor (RAR/RXR) binds a DR1 RARE within the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) gene promoter and is the trans-acting complex that mediates the retinoic aci...
متن کاملRetinoic acid receptors and retinoid X receptors: interactions with endogenous retinoic acids.
The binding of endogenous retinoids and stereoisomers of retinoic acid (RA) to the retinoid nuclear receptors, RA receptor (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs), was characterized using nucleosol preparations from transiently transfected COS-1 cells. Among several stereoisomers of RA tested, including 7-cis-, 9-cis-, 11-cis-, 13-cis-, and all-trans-RA, only 9-cis-RA effectively competes with 9...
متن کاملComparison of the expression patterns of newly identified zebrafish retinoic acid and retinoid X receptors.
Retinoic acid (RA) signaling is important for multiple aspects of embryonic development and tissue homeostasis. Heterodimers of retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs) transduce RA signaling. It is not yet clear how the diversity of receptor combinations relates to the diversity of functions for RA. The expression patterns of three zebrafish RARs and four RXRs were report...
متن کاملDimerization with retinoid X receptors promotes nuclear localization and subnuclear targeting of vitamin D receptors.
The vitamin D receptor (VDR) acts as heterodimer with the retinoid X receptor alpha (RXR) to control transcriptional activity of target genes. To explore the influence of heterodimerization on the subcellular distribution of these receptors in living cells, we developed a series of fluorescent-protein chimeras. The steady-state distribution of the yellow fluorescent protein-RXR was more nuclear...
