1YNW - PubMed Abstract: 
The Vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a ligand-responsive transcription factor that forms homo- or heterodimers on response elements composed of two hexameric half-sites separated by three base pairs of spacer DNA. Binding of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) to the full-length VDR causes destabilization of the VDR homodimer and formation of a heterodimeric complex with the 9-cis retinoic acid receptor (RXR) ...
