title: Identification of a receptor for the morphogen retinoic acid.
abstract: Analysis of complementary DNA encoding a novel gene product reveals striking similarity to the steroid and thyroid hormone receptors. Binding and transcription activational studies show it to be a receptor for the vitamin A-related morphogen retinoic acid.
