Structural and functional similarity of amphibian constitutive androstane receptor with mammalian pregnane X receptor.

Structural and functional similarity of amphibian constitutive androstane receptor with mammalian pregnane X receptor.

The nuclear receptors and xenosensors constitutive androstane receptor (CAR, NR1I3) and pregnane X receptor (PXR, NR1I2) induce the expression of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes and transporters, which also affects various endobiotics. While human and mouse CAR feature a high basal activity and low...
