MeSH Heading: Receptors, Androgen
Tree Number(s): D12.776.826.750.150
Unique ID: D011944
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D011944
Scope Note: Proteins, generally found in the CYTOPLASM, that specifically bind ANDROGENS and mediate their cellular actions. The complex of the androgen and receptor migrates to the CELL NUCLEUS where it induces transcription of specific segments of DNA.
