Function
Progesterone receptor (PR) binds to DNA and inhibits transcription. The inhibition terminates when progesterone binds to PR. The ovarian steroid progesterone which is essential for breast development and reproductive behavior, is mediated by PR[1].
Relevance
The response to hormone therapy in breast cancer correlates with PR. PR absence in breast tumor cells predicts resistance to hormone therapy [2].
Structural highlights
The structure of the complex of the ligand-binding domain of PR with RU486 - an abortion-inducing drug - shows the ligand bound at a similar location to other agonists or partial agonists with a flexible loop of PR being a possible entry route to the binding site and several PR-RU486 interactions[3].
