MeSH Heading
Receptors, Calcitriol
Tree Number(s)
D12.776.826.535
Unique ID
D018167
RDF Unique Identifier
http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D018167
Scope Note
Proteins, usually found in the cytoplasm, that specifically bind calcitriol, migrate to the nucleus, and regulate transcription of specific segments of DNA with the participation of D receptor interacting proteins (called DRIP). Vitamin D is converted in the liver and kidney to calcitriol and ultimately acts through these receptors.
