Agonist Comments | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
No ligand identified. Homology modeling of the putative LBDs of the NR1D subgroup suggested that the pocket is occupied by bulky side chains, and the small residual cavity could not accommodate a classical ligand [12]. |

Tissue Distribution Comments | ||||||||
Rev-erbβ is found as two transcripts of 5.5 and 4 kb in rat and only one at 4.5 kb in human and mouse. In all mammals examined this gene is expressed in a wide variety of tissues such as heart, brain, lung, liver, skeletal muscles and kidney. Very weak expression was observed in spleen and testis. In situ hybridisation experiments reveals a strong expression in the central nervous system in the cerebellar cortex as well as in the dentate gyrus and in the hippocampus. |
