Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the CA1 region of the hippocampus, expression decreases with age (at protein level). Expressed in prostate, ovary, lung, liver, kidney, fat, bone, brain, uterus and testis. |
Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylation at Ser-87 and Ser-105 recruits NCOA1. |
Function | Isoform 1: Nuclear hormone receptor. Binds estrogens with an affinity similar to that of ESR1/ER-alpha, and activates expression of reporter genes containing estrogen response elements (ERE) in an estrogen-dependent manner. Isoform 2: Lacks ligand binding affinity and suppresses ESR1/ER-alpha and ESR2 isoform 1/ER-beta1 mediated transcriptional activation and may act as a dominant negative regulator of estrogen action. Isoform 3: Unable to bind DNA and activate transcription due to the truncation of the DNA binding domain. Isoform 4: Unable to bind DNA and activate transcription due to the truncation of the DNA binding domain. |
