Abstract
The present invention provides a novel method of determining the antagonist and agonist activity of a compound for steroid hormone receptors. The present invention also provides a method of determining antagonist activity of a compound for a hormone receptor by inducing the conformational change in the receptor. In addition, the present invention provides a novel method of determining the level of agonist activity of a compound for steroid hormone receptors.
