ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a recombinant expression system for production of functional thyroid hormone receptor protein(s). The invention also provides a method to produce thyroid hormone receptor protein(s) by culturing the cells of the invention recombinant expression system. Also provided are thyroid hormone receptor protein(s) produced by the invention method. In addition, the present invention provides recombinant DNAs comprised of sequences which encode proteins having the hormone-binding and/or transcription-activating characteristics of a thyroid hormone receptor. The invention also provides various plasmids containing receptor sequences which exemplify the DNAs of the invention. The invention further provides complementary mRNAs, cells transformed with invention DNAs, and nucleic acid probes derived from invention DNAs.
