Androgen receptor, molecular model C015 / 6112
Androgen receptor. Molecular model of the DNA-binding region of an androgen receptor (purple and brown) complexed with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, turquoise and red). Androgen receptors are nuclear receptors that are activated by binding of either of the androgenic (male sex) hormones testosterone or dihydrotestosterone. Binding of the hormones to the androgen receptor translocates it to the nucleus where it binds DNA to switch on genes that code for the development of male reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases the intricate molecular model of the Androgen receptor, specifically focusing on its DNA-binding region. The vibrant colors highlight the complex interaction between the androgen receptor (depicted in purple and brown) and DNA (represented in turquoise and red). As a crucial component of our biological system, Androgen receptors are nuclear receptors that become activated upon binding with testosterone or dihydrotestosterone, both male sex hormones. Upon hormone binding, this receptor translocates to the nucleus where it binds to specific regions of DNA. This binding process triggers gene expression responsible for developing male reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics. The white background emphasizes the structural elegance of this essential regulator within our bodies. This stunning illustration not only captures the beauty of biology but also provides valuable insights into endocrinology, gene regulation, and biochemistry. It serves as a visual representation of how molecules interact at a microscopic level to influence vital processes within our bodies. Created by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this artwork combines scientific accuracy with artistic flair. Its detailed depiction offers an engaging perspective into the world of molecular biology while reminding us of nature's complexity at every scale.
