- | + | '''Glucocorticoid receptor''' (GCR) is the [[Nuclear receptors|nuclear receptor]] binding cortisol and [[glucocorticoids]]. GCR regulates genes involved in development, metabolism and immune response. GCR interacts with nuclear receptor coactivator 2 (NCOA2) which promotes DNA transcription by acylating histones<ref>PMID:17132855</ref>. | |
