Estrogen receptor structure-function is a vast topic and the subject of very active current research. Nuclear receptors are a large family of structurally related ligand-inducible transcription factors, including steroid receptors (SRs), thyroid/retinoids receptors (TR, RARs and RXRs), vitamin D receptors (VDR), LXR, PPARs, estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ), and orphan receptors for which no ligand has been yet identified. While having in common a modular structure, they are activated by distinct lipophilic small molecules such as glucocorticoids, progesterone, estrogens, retinoids, and fatty acid derivatives.All nuclear receptors have a hydrophobic pocket into which its specific ligand binds, with helix 12 (H12) being the key response element of NRs.
