Abstract:The Nuclear Receptor (NR) superfamily comprises of conserved ligand-modulated intracellular transcription factors which in the presence of their cognate ligands activate a plethora of signaling networks, thereby commencing their respective transcription functions.

NRs control a majority of physiological processes in body ranging from metabolism to reproduction and devel… Show more
