Estrogen receptor in the mammalian liver. 1976

A J Eisenfeld, and R Aten, and M Weinberger, and G Haselbacher, and K Halpern, and L Krakoff

The cytosol from livers of adult female mammals contains [3H]estradiol-binding proteins that can translocate to the nucleus and attach to chromatin. In comparison to the prepubescent rat, adults have higher estrogen binding in the liver and greater increases in plasma renin substrate after administration of estrogen. The protein in the liver which binds estrogen may be an estrogen receptor involved in modulating hepatic synthesis of selective plasma proteins.

D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.
