The structure of the LBD is strongly conserved throughout the familly of nuclear receptors. It is a globular domain and composed of a beta-sheet, and 12 alpha-helices arranged in a three layered sandwich.

Structure of the LBD of a VDR (vitamin D receptor) complexed to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and the 20-epi analogs(PDB entry 1ie8)
