Facts about Estrogen receptor.
Ligand binding induces a conformational change allowing subsequent or combinatorial association with multiprotein coactivator complexes through LXXLL motifs of their various components. Mutual transrepression occurs between the estrogen receptor (ER) and NF- kappa-B in a cell-type particular manner.

Widely expressed. Isoform 3 is not expressed in the pituitary gland.
[Isoform 1]: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. A minor fraction is associated with the inner membrane.; [Isoform 3]: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Associated with the inner membrane via palmitoylation (Probable). At least a subset exists as a transmembrane protein with a N-terminal extracellular domain.; Nucleus. Golgi apparatus. Cell membrane. Colocalizes with ZDHHC7 and ZDHHC21 in the Golgi apparatus where most probably palmitoylation occurs.
