== Function ==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ESR1_HUMAN ESR1_HUMAN]] Nuclear hormone receptor. The steroid hormones and their receptors are involved in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. Ligand-dependent nuclear transactivation involves either direct homodimer binding to a palindromic estrogen response element (ERE) sequence or association with other DNA-binding transcription factors, such as AP-1/c-Jun, c-Fos, ATF-2, Sp1 and Sp3, to mediate ERE-independent signaling. Ligand binding induces a conformational change allowing subsequent or combinatorial association with multiprotein coactivator complexes through LXXLL motifs of their respective components. Mutual transrepression occurs between the estrogen receptor (ER) and NF-kappa-B in a cell-type specific manner. Decreases NF-kappa-B DNA-binding activity and inhibits NF-kappa-B-mediated transcription from the IL6 promoter and displace RELA/p65 and associated coregulators from the promoter. Recruited to the NF-kappa-B response element of the CCL2 and IL8 promoters and can displace CREBBP. Present with NF-kappa-B components RELA/p65 and NFKB1/p50 on ERE sequences. Can also act synergistically with NF-kappa-B to activate transcription involving respective recruitment adjacent response elements; the function involves CREBBP. Can activate the transcriptional activity of TFF1. Also mediates membrane-initiated estrogen signaling involving various kinase cascades. Isoform 3 is involved in activation of NOS3 and endothelial nitric oxide production. Isoforms lacking one or several functional domains are thought to modulate transcriptional activity by competitive ligand or DNA binding and/or heterodimerization with the full length receptor. Isoform 3 can bind to ERE and inhibit isoform 1.<ref>PMID:7651415</ref> <ref>PMID:10970861</ref> <ref>PMID:9328340</ref> <ref>PMID:10681512</ref> <ref>PMID:10816575</ref> <ref>PMID:11477071</ref> <ref>PMID:11682626</ref> <ref>PMID:15078875</ref> <ref>PMID:16043358</ref> <ref>PMID:15891768</ref> <ref>PMID:16684779</ref> <ref>PMID:18247370</ref> <ref>PMID:17932106</ref> <ref>PMID:19350539</ref> <ref>PMID:20705611</ref> <ref>PMID:21937726</ref> <ref>PMID:21330404</ref> <ref>PMID:22083956</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
BACKGROUND: The steroid/nuclear hormone receptors are a large family of conserved ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate gene expression through binding to response elements upstream of their target genes. Most members of this family bind to DNA as homodimers or heterodimers and recognize the sequence, spacing and orientation of the two half-sites of their response elements. The recognition and discrimination of the sequence and arrangements of these half-sites are mediated primarily by a highly conserved DNA-binding domain. RESULTS: Here we describe the DNA-binding properties of the isolated DNA-binding domain of the oestrogen receptor, the ERDBD, and its refined NMR structure. This domain is monomeric in solution, but two molecules bind cooperatively to specific DNA sequences; this cooperativity determines the arrangement of half-sites that is recognized by the ERDBD. The 10 carboxy-terminal residues and a region of 15 residues within the domain are disordered in the solution structure, yet are important for DNA binding. CONCLUSION: The cooperative nature of ERDBD binding to DNA is important. The previously-determined X-ray structure of the ERDBD dimer bound to DNA shows that the 15 internal residues disordered in solution make contact both with DNA and with the corresponding region of the other monomer. These results suggest that these residues become ordered during the process of binding to DNA, forming the dimer interface and thus contributing to the cooperative interaction between monomers.
