Abstract

Purified DNA encoding a Constitutive Activator of Retinoid acid response (CAR) receptors and the recombinant proteins expressed from such DNA are disclosed. The recombinant receptor polypeptides are members of the nuclear hormone receptor super family and are used to identify CAR ligands and CAR receptor binding sites and are also used to produce therapeutics. Antibodies specific for CAR receptor polypeptides are also disclosed.
