[HTML][HTML] Hormone-independent transcriptional activation and coactivator binding by novel orphan nuclear receptor ERR3

H Hong, L Yang, MR Stallcup - Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1999 - ASBMB
Orphan nuclear receptors share sequence homology with members of the nuclear receptor
superfamily, but ligands are unknown or unnecessary. A novel orphan receptor, estrogen
receptor-related protein 3 (ERR3), was identified by yeast two-hybrid screening, using the
transcriptional coactivator glucocorticoid receptor interacting protein 1 (GRIP1) as bait. The
putative full-length mouse ERR3 contains 458 amino acids and is closely related to two
known orphan receptors ERR1 and ERR2. All the ERR family members share an almost …
