Assembly of multi-protein complexes on promoter and enhancer elements is a prerequisite for onset of gene transcription. At the beginning of this process, transcription factors are thought to act as nucleating centers for complex formation through th

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are ligand-dependent transcription factors which belong to the nuclear receptor family. We examined whether PPARalpha agonists and resveratrol, a polyphenol contained in grapes, protect the brain ag

Orphan receptors for whom cognate ligands have not yet been identified form a large subclass within the nuclear receptor superfamily. To address one aspect of how they might regulate transcription, we analyzed the mode of interaction between the Dros

The retinoic acid receptors (RARs) recruit coactivator and corepressor proteins to activate or repress the transcription of target genes depending on the presence of retinoic acid (RA). Despite a detailed molecular understanding of how corepressor co

The vitamin A derivative retinoic acid (RA) has been suggested to play important roles in vertebrate embryonic development and cell differentiation. Vitamin A deficiency and/or excessive doses of RA are known to result in a spectrum of distinct malfo

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), a rate-limiting enzyme for prostaglandins (PG), plays a key role in inflammation, tumorigenesis, development, and circulatory homeostasis. The PGD(2) metabolite 15-deoxy-Delta(12, 14) PGJ(2) (15d-PGJ(2)) was identified as a

Three pharmacologically important nuclear receptors, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs α,γ , and δ), mediate key transcriptional responses involved in lipid homeostasis. The PPARα and γ subtypes are well conserved from Xenop

The ligand binding domain of the human vitamin D receptor (VDR) was modeled based on the crystal structure of the retinoic acid receptor. The ligand binding pocket of our VDR model is spacious at the helix 11 site and confined at the β-turn site. Th

During vertebrate embryonic development, a key to unraveling specific functions of gene products is the capability to manipulate expression of the gene of interest at the desired time and place. For this, we developed a 'microelectroporation' techniq
