Abstract
The invention relates generally to compositions of and methods for obtaining ubiquitous, nuclear receptor (UR) polypeptides. The invention also relates to polynucleotides encoding UR polypeptides, recombinant host cells and vectors containing UR-encoding polynucleotide sequences, and recombinant UR polypeptides. By way of example, the invention discloses the cloning and functional expression of at least two different UR polypeptides. The invention also includes methods for using the isolated, recombinant receptor polypeptides in assays designed to select substances which interact with UR polypeptides for use in diagnostic, drug design and therapeutic applications.
