Facts about Oxysterols receptor LXR-alpha.
LXRES are DR4-type response components characterized by direct repeats of two similar hexanuclotide half-sites spaced by four nucleotides (By similarity). Plays an important role in the regulation of cholesterol homeostasis, regulating cholesterol uptake via MYLIP-dependent ubiquitination of LDLR, VLDLR and LRP8 (PubMed:19481530).
