The signal transducing chains are often shared between different receptors within this receptor family.
The apoptosis of pericytes in the aging brain may be the result of a failure in communication between growth factors and receptors on pericytes.
The binding of FSH to the receptor shifts the equilibrium between active and inactive receptors.
The A-B domain is highly variable in sequence between various nuclear receptors.
F) C-terminal domain: Highly variable in sequence between various nuclear receptors.
There is a specific interaction between collectins and receptors on phagocytic cells which can lead to increased clearance of microorganisms.
A spectrum of post-translational modifications is known to regulate the functional relationships between nuclear receptors, their coregulator complexes, and their target gene networks.
Communication between receptors in this fashion enables discrimination and the more explicit interpretation of external stimuli.
The difference in the sequence of the ligand-binding domain between receptors reflects the different ligand specificities.
