Prolactin receptor

From Proteopedia

Human prolactin receptor (deepskyblue) complex with prolactin (magenta), Na+ (purple) and Cl- (green) ions (PDB code 3mzg) Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image Function Prolactin receptor (PRLR) mediates the prolactin hormone signal transduction cascade. Prolactin-dependent signaling occurs as a result of a ligand-induced dimerization of the PRLR[1]. The PRLR can also bind to and be activated by growth hormone. See also: Cytokine receptors and Immune receptors Relevance The signaling action of PRLR/prolactin complex serve to control the pattern of gene expression that contributes to breast development and the pathobiology of breast cancer[2]. Structural highlights (PDB code 3mzg). The interaction between PRLR and prolactin is strongly pH-dependent and is critically dependent on [3]. Water molecules are shown as red spheres. .
