Crystal structure of human estrogen-related receptor gamma ligand binding domain complex with 4-alpha-cumylphenol, a bisphenol A derivative
Structural highlights
FunctionERR3_HUMAN Orphan receptor that acts as transcription activator in the absence of bound ligand. Binds specifically to an estrogen response element and activates reporter genes controlled by estrogen response elements (By similarity).[1] [2] [3] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedA receptor-binding assay and X-ray crystal structure analysis demonstrated that the endocrine disruptor bisphenol A (BPA) strongly binds to human estrogen-related receptor gamma (ERRgamma). BPA is well anchored to the ligand-binding pocket, forming hydrogen bonds with its two phenol-hydroxyl groups. In this study, we found that 4-alpha-cumylphenol lacking one of its phenol-hydroxyl groups also binds to ERRgamma very strongly. The 2.0 A crystal structure of the 4-alpha-cumylphenol/ERRgamma complex clearly revealed that ERRgamma's Leu345-beta-isopropyl plays a role in the tight binding of 4-alpha-cumylphenol and BPA, rotating in a back-and-forth induced-fit manner. ERRgamma tethers strongly bisphenol A and 4-alpha-cumylphenol in an induced-fit manner.,Matsushima A, Teramoto T, Okada H, Liu X, Tokunaga T, Kakuta Y, Shimohigashi Y Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2008 Aug 29;373(3):408-13.
