Target Details for Vitamin D Receptor

Target: Vitamin D Receptor (VDR)

Alternative Name: VDR

Target Type: Chemical

Background:

Description: Nuclear receptor for calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D3 which mediates the action of this vitamin on cells. Enters the nucleus upon vitamin D3 binding where it forms heterodimers with the retinoid X receptor/RXR. The VDR-RXR heterodimers bind to specific response elements on DNA and activate the transcription of vitamin D3-responsive target genes. Recruited to promoters via its interaction with BAZ1B/WSTF which mediates the interaction with acetylated histones, an essential step for VDR-promoter association. Plays a central role in calcium homeostasis.

Gene: VDR

Molecular Weight: 55kDa

Gene ID: 7421

UniProt: P11473

Pathways: Nuclear Receptor Transcription Pathway, Steroid Hormone Mediated Signaling Pathway
