The LBD of a nuclear receptor has a common three layer sandwich
The structure of the LBD is strongly conserved throughout the familly of nuclear receptors.
It is a globular domain, mainly alpha
<scene name='Nuclear_receptor/Nr-lbd-/1'>well folded</scene>
composed of
<scene name='Nuclear_receptor/Nr-lbd-alpha/1'>12 alpha-helices</scene>
arranged in a three layered sandwich, and a <scene name='Nuclear_receptor/Nr-lbd-beta/1'>beta-sheet</scene>.
