MeSH Heading: Receptors, Progesterone
Tree Number(s): D12.776.826.750.765
Unique ID: D011980
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D011980
Annotation: coordinate with specific progesterone
Scope Note: Specific proteins found in or on cells of progesterone target tissues that specifically combine with progesterone. The cytosol progesterone-receptor complex then associates with the nucleic acids to initiate protein synthesis. There are two kinds of progesterone receptors, A and B. Both are induced by estrogen and have short half-lives.
