Difference between Heme and Nuclear receptor

Heme vs. Nuclear receptor

Heme or haem is a coordination complex "consisting of an iron ion coordinated to a porphyrin acting as a tetradentate ligand, and to one or two axial ligands." The definition is loose, and many depictions omit the axial ligands. 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 Heme and Nuclear receptor

Heme and Nuclear receptor have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Coordination complex, Ligand (biochemistry), Steric effects.

Coordination complex

In chemistry, a coordination complex consists of a central atom or ion, which is usually metallic and is called the coordination centre, and a surrounding array of bound molecules or ions, that are in turn known as ligands or complexing agents.
