Estrogen-related receptors (ERRs) are orphan nuclear receptors. This review details how ERRs function as transcription factors controlling development and physiology.

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Estrogen-related receptors (ERRs) belong to the NR3B nuclear receptor subfamily.
  • ERRs were identified as the first orphan nuclear receptors over 20 years ago.
  • A natural ligand for ERRs has not yet been identified.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current understanding of estrogen-related receptors (ERRs).
  • To describe the molecular mechanisms of ERR transcription factor activity.
  • To outline the diverse biological functions controlled by ERRs in development and physiology.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of biochemical studies.
  • Analysis of genetic studies.
  • Synthesis of functional genomics data.

Main Results:

  • ERRs function as transcription factors.
  • ERRs regulate a wide array of developmental processes.
  • ERRs are involved in numerous physiological functions.

Conclusions:

  • Despite being orphan receptors, ERRs' functions are well-characterized.
  • ERRs play critical roles in regulating gene expression.
  • Understanding ERR pathways is crucial for deciphering developmental and physiological control.
