Description: | Source (MLSCN Center Name): The Scripps Research Institute Molecular Screening Center Center Affiliation: The Scripps Research Institute, TSRI Assay Provider: Orphagen Pharmaceuticals, San Diego, CA Network: Molecular Library Screening Center Network (MLSCN) Grant Proposal Number: 1X01-MH077624-01 External Assay ID: SF1_AG_LUMI_1536_EC50 Nuclear receptors are a family of small molecule and hormone-regulated transcription factors that share conserved DNA-binding and ligand-binding domains. Small pharmacological compounds able to bind to the cleft of the ligand-binding domain could alter its conformation and subsequently modify transcription of target genes. Such ligand agonists and/or antagonists have already been successfully designed for 23 nuclear receptors among the 48 previously identified in the human genome [1-3]. The nuclear receptor SF-1 (steroidogenic factor-1) belongs to the class of "unexplored" orphan nuclear receptors that have been poorly investigated at a pharmacolog |
