Verified step by step guidance1
Nuclear receptors are a class of proteins found within the cell nucleus.
These receptors are responsible for sensing steroid and thyroid hormones and certain other molecules.
Upon binding to these hormones, nuclear receptors act as transcription factors, meaning they can regulate the expression of specific genes.
Nuclear receptors have a specific structure that allows them to bind to DNA and influence gene transcription.
They play a crucial role in various physiological processes, including development, metabolism, and reproduction.
