homodimeric ligand activated nuclear receptor expressed in various tissue types including reproductive tissue
estradiol target normal role
as a homodimeric nuclear receptor, in the un-bound state, monomers of the receptor are sequestered in the cytoplasm by large chaperone protein complexes. upon binding of a ligand the receptor undergoes a conformational change which results in dissociation of the receptor from its chaperone proteins, nuclear localization, dimerization, DNA binding, and association with co-transcription factor, ultimately resulting in upregulation of genes involved in the development and maintenance of primary and secondary sex characteristics in biologic females
