Steroid Hormone Receptor

Preferred Label : Steroid Hormone Receptor;

NCIt synonyms : Steroid Hormones, Receptor; Steroid Hormones, Receptors; Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 3; Estrogen Receptor-Like Subfamily; NR3;

NCIt definition : Steroid hormone receptors are proteins found in either the cytoplasm or nucleus of eukaryotic cells which bind to and regulate the transcription of DNA under the regulation of steroid hormones. These proteins are the first receptors assigned to the steroid/thyroid/retinoid nuclear receptor superfamily, a group of transcription factors whose activity is regulated by small lipid-soluble molecules.;
