[英文釋義] Proteins in the cytoplasm or nucleus that specifically bind signaling molecules and trigger changes which influence the behavior of cells. The major groups are the steroid hormone receptors (RECEPTORS,STEROID),which usually are found in the cytoplasm,and the thyroid hormone receptors (RECEPTORS,THYROID HORMONE),which usually are found in the nucleus. Receptors,unlike enzymes,generally do not catalyze chemical changes in their ligands.
