Steroid hormone receptor ERR1 (ERRα)

Target
ERRα
Molecular classification
Nuclear hormone receptor, Transcription factor
01

Overview

Steroid hormone receptor ERR1 (ERRα) is a member of the nuclear receptor family of transcription factors. It regulates genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis, energy metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, and steroidogenesis. It does not bind estrogens but can be modulated by synthetic compounds. ERRα plays a role in cancer biology, particularly in promoting migration, invasion, and angiogenesis of breast cancer stem cell-like cells.

Mechanism of action

Binds to estrogen-related response elements (ERRE) and modulates transcription of target genes; interacts with coactivators such as PGC-1α to enhance transcriptional activity. Synthetic agonists can modulate conformation.
