Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal structure of the ligand-binding domain of the human nuclear receptor RXR-alpha.
TL;DR: The crystal structure of the human retinoid-X receptor RXR-α ligand-binding domain reveals a previously undiscovered fold of an antiparallel α-helical sandwich, packed as dimeric units.
Journal ArticleDOI
A canonical structure for the ligand-binding domain of nuclear receptors.
Jean Marie Wurtz,William Bourguet,Jean Paul Renaud,Valérie Vivat,Pierre Chambon,Dino Moras,Hinrich Gronemeyer +6 more
TL;DR: Mutant studies support a general mechanism for ligand-induced activation deduced from the comparison of the transcriptionally active RARγ holo- and inactive RXRα apo-LBD structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nuclear receptor ligand-binding domains: three-dimensional structures, molecular interactions and pharmacological implications
TL;DR: A comprehensive mechanistic view of agonist and antagonist action will be presented and the novel class of partial agonists-antagonists will be described and the multiple challenges and novel perspectives for nuclear-receptor-based drug design will be discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal structure of a heterodimeric complex of RAR and RXR ligand-binding domains.
William Bourguet,Valérie Vivat,Jean-Marie Wurtz,Pierre Chambon,Hinrich Gronemeyer,Dino Moras +5 more
TL;DR: A correlative analysis of 3D structures and sequences provides a novel view on dimerization among members of the nuclear receptor superfamily.
Journal ArticleDOI
Osh4p exchanges sterols for phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate between lipid bilayers
Maud de Saint-Jean,Vanessa Delfosse,Dominique Douguet,Gaëtan Chicanne,Bernard Payrastre,William Bourguet,Bruno Antonny,Guillaume Drin +7 more
TL;DR: The yeast Kes1p/Osh4p protein functions as a sterol/PI(4)P exchanger between lipid membranes, which suggests the possibility of creating a sterOL gradient via phosphoinositide metabolism.
