CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF A HETERODIMERIC COMPLEX OF RAR AND RXR LIGAND-BINDING DOMAINS

Contents

Overview

The crystal structure of a heterodimer between the ligand-binding domains, (LBDs) of the human RARalpha bound to a selective antagonist and the, constitutively active mouse RXRalphaF318A mutant shows that, pushed by a, bulky extension of the ligand, RARalpha helix H12 adopts an antagonist, position. The unexpected presence of a fatty acid in the ligand-binding, pocket of RXRalpha(F318A is likely to account for its apparent, "constitutivity." Specific conformational changes suggest the structural, basis of pure and partial antagonism. The RAR-RXR heterodimer interface is, similar to that observed in most nuclear receptor (NR) homodimers. A, correlative analysis of 3D structures and sequences provides a novel view, on dimerization among members of the nuclear receptor superfamily.

Disease
