Human ER LBD

ER-α is a 17β-estradiol-activated steroid receptor member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors. It has a variety of central physiological roles, including those involved in maintenance of the reproductive, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal and central nervous systems. ER-α is expressed at low to moderate levels in major physiological systems (central nervous system (CNS), endocrine, metabolic, gastrointestinal, immune, reproductive, cardiovascular, respiratory and structural), with peaks of expression in the pituitary, ovary, uterus and vas deferens. ER-α dysfunction is associated with cancer, cardiovascular system defects, hematological system defects, immune and inflammation diseases, metabolic defects, reproductive defects.
