Overexpression of estrogen receptor alpha (ER-alpha) is found in 70% of breast cancer tumors. Normally, ER-alpha remains inactive and sequestered in the cytoplasm until estrogen binds to the ligand-binding domain (LBD) to enable nuclear translocat...
Estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) is a ligand-dependent master transcriptional regulator and key driver of breast cancer pathology. Small molecule hormones and competitive antagonists favor unique ERα conformational ensembles that elicit ligand-specific transcriptional programs in breast cancer and other hormone-responsive tissues. By affecting dispara...
