Estrogen receptor alpha (ER-α), also known as NR3A1, is one of two main types of estrogen receptor, a nuclear receptor that is activated by the sex hormone estrogen. Estrogen receptors are involved in pathological processes including breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and osteoporosis. In humans, ER-α is encoded by the gene ESR1 (Estrogen Receptor 1). It is mapped to 6q25.1. This gene is a ligand-activated transcription factor composed of several domains important for hormone binding, DNA binding, and activation of transcription. The protein localizes to the nucleus where it may form a homodimer or a heterodimer with estrogen receptor 2. Estrogen and its receptors are essential for sexual development and reproductive function, it also play a role in other tissues such as bone.
