RXRs are type-II nuclear hormone receptors that are primarily localized to the nuclear compartment independent of ligand binding. Nuclear RXRs form heterodimers with nuclear hormone receptor subfamily 1 proteins, including thyroid hormone receptor, retinoic acid receptors, vitamin D receptor, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, liver X receptors, and farnesoid X receptor (1). Since RXRs heterodimerize with multiple nuclear hormone receptors, they play a central role in transcriptional control of numerous hormonal signaling pathways by binding to -acting response elements in the promoter\/enhancer region of target genes (2). Retinoid X receptor α (RXRα) is the founding RXR family member and is predominantly expressed in the liver, kidney, epidermis, intestine, and a variety of tissues (2-4). Knockout of the murine rxrα gene results in embryonic lethality tentatively due to myocardial hypoplasia, which demonstrates the importance of RXRα in retinoid signaling (5,6). Biochemical evidence suggests that RXRα transcriptional activity is post-translationally regulated through the Ras-Raf-MAPK signaling cascade. MAPK-dependent phosphorylation of RXRα directly abrogates the ability of RXRα to associate with nuclear receptor coactivators (7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nFLJ00280; FLJ00318; FLJ16020; FLJ16733; MGC102720; NR2B1; Nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group B member 1; Retinoic acid receptor RXR-alpha; retinoid X nuclear receptor alpha; Retinoid X receptor alpha; retinoid X receptor, alpha; RXR-alpha; RXRA\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 53\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798069563561,"sku":"3085S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-3085s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
