FunctionESR2_HUMAN Nuclear hormone receptor. Binds estrogens with an affinity similar to that of ESR1, and activates expression of reporter genes containing estrogen response elements (ERE) in an estrogen-dependent manner. Isoform beta-cx lacks ligand binding ability and has no or only very low ere binding activity resulting in the loss of ligand-dependent transactivation ability. DNA-binding by ESR1 and ESR2 is rapidly lost at 37 degrees Celsius in the absence of ligand while in the presence of 17 beta-estradiol and 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen loss in DNA-binding at elevated temperature is more gradual.

Publication Abstract from PubMedBenzopyrans are selective estrogen receptor (ER) beta agonists (SERBAs), which bind the ER receptor subtypes alpha and beta in opposite orientations. We have used structure based drug design to show that this unique phenomena can be exploited via substitution at the 8-position of the benzopyran A-ring to disrupt binding to ERalpha, thus improving ERbeta subtype selectivity. X-ray cocrystal structures with ERalpha and ERbeta are supportive of this approach to improve selectivity in this structural class. Benzopyrans as selective estrogen receptor beta agonists (SERBAs).
