ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses the isolation and characterization of cDNA molecules encoding two human nuclear receptor proteins, designated nNR1, nNR2 and/or nNR2-1. Also within the scope of the disclosure are recombinant vectors, recombinant host cells, methods of screening for modulators of nNR1, nNR2 and/or nNR2-1 activity, and production of antibodies against nNR1, nNR2 and/or nNR2-1, or epitopes thereof.
