Difference between Aldosterone and Nuclear receptor

Aldosterone vs. Nuclear receptor

Aldosterone, the main mineralocorticoid hormone, is a steroid hormone produced by the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland. In the field of molecular biology, nuclear receptors are a class of proteins found within cells that are responsible for sensing steroid and thyroid hormones and certain other molecules.

Similarities between Aldosterone and Nuclear receptor

Aldosterone and Nuclear receptor have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cholesterol, Cortisol, Hormone response element, Mineralocorticoid receptor, Steroid hormone, Steroid hormone receptor, Transcription (biology).

Cholesterol

Cholesterol (from the Ancient Greek chole- (bile) and stereos (solid), followed by the chemical suffix -ol for an alcohol) is an organic molecule.

Cortisol

Cortisol is a steroid hormone, in the glucocorticoid class of hormones.

Hormone response element

A hormone response element (HRE) is a short sequence of DNA within the promoter of a gene that is able to bind to a specific hormone receptor complex and therefore regulate transcription.

Mineralocorticoid receptor

The mineralocorticoid receptor (or MR, MLR, MCR), also known as the aldosterone receptor or nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 2, (NR3C2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NR3C2 gene that is located on chromosome 4q31.1-31.2.

Steroid hormone

A steroid hormone is a steroid that acts as a hormone.

Steroid hormone receptor

Steroid hormone receptors are found in the nucleus, cytosol, and also on the plasma membrane of target cells.

Transcription (biology)

Transcription is the first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA (especially mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase.

Aldosterone and Nuclear receptor Comparison

Aldosterone has 87 relations, while Nuclear receptor has 183. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 2.59% = 7 / (87 + 183).
