In female mice, both the glucocorticoid (cortisol) receptor and the estrogen receptor are expressed in liver cells (hepatocytes). The control element to which the glucocorticoid receptor binds is a short-strip of DNA that can accommodate the binding of the glucocorticoid receptor dimer. This control element is called a glucocorticoid response element (GRE). It is located1000 bp downstream from the poly-A site for the PEPCK gene. When this gene is activated by cortisol, it helps the hepatocyte to release glucose into...
Which of the following is true of both the androgen receptor and a retinoid receptor ? More than one answer can be correct. They are always located in the nucleus. The receptors' NLS is always exposed. They can bind steroid ligands. They can signal at the plasma membrane. They can undergo a conformational change upon binding of a ligand.
