Multidomain architecture of estrogen receptor reveals interfacial cross-talk between its DNA-binding and ligand-binding domains

The human estrogen receptor alpha (hERα) is a hormone-responsive transcription factor. Here the authors combine small-angle X-ray scattering, hydroxyl radical protein footprinting and computational modeling and show that multidomain hERα adopts an L-shaped boot-like architecture revealing a cross-ta...

Description
Summary:The human estrogen receptor alpha (hERα) is a hormone-responsive transcription factor. Here the authors combine small-angle X-ray scattering, hydroxyl radical protein footprinting and computational modeling and show that multidomain hERα adopts an L-shaped boot-like architecture revealing a cross-talk between its DNA-binding domain and Ligand-binding domain.
