'''Progesterone receptor''' (PR) binds to DNA and inhibits transcription. It is [[Nuclear receptors|nuclear receptor]]. The inhibition terminates when progesterone binds to PR. The ovarian steroid progesterone which is essential for breast development and reproductive behavior, is mediated by PR<ref>PMID:19072517</ref>. | '''Progesterone receptor''' (PR) binds to DNA and inhibits transcription.
