Journal ArticleDOI

Ligand binding and co-activator assembly of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma.

TL;DR: A general mechanism for the assembly of nuclear receptors with co-activators is suggested, based on the observation that two consecutive LXXLL motifs of SRC-1 make identical contacts with both subunits of a PPAR-γ homodimer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determinants of coactivator LXXLL motif specificity in nuclear receptor transcriptional activation.

TL;DR: Data suggest that the LXXLL-containing motifs have evolved to serve overlapping roles that are likely to permit both receptor-specific and ligand-specific assembly of a coactivator complex, and that these recognition motifs underlie the recruitment of coActivator complexes required for nuclear receptor function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interactions controlling the assembly of nuclear-receptor heterodimers and co-activators.

TL;DR: Allosteric inhibition of RXR results from a rotation of the RXR AF-2 helix that places it in contact with the RAR coactivator-binding site, allowing RXR ligands to bind and promote the binding of a second LXXLL motif from the same SRC-1 molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomic Structure of PDE4: Insights into Phosphodiesterase Mechanism and Specificity

TL;DR: The three-dimensional structure of the catalytic domain of phosphodiesterase 4B2B to 1.77 angstrom resolution suggests the mechanism of action and basis for specificity and will provide a framework for structure-assisted drug design for members of the phosphodiedterase family.
