    Background
    NUR77 (NR4A1, TR3, NGFI-B) is an orphan nuclear receptor and immediate-early gene product that acts as a ligand-independent transcription factor rapidly induced by stress, growth factors, and apoptotic signals to regulate cell fate decisions in immunity, metabolism, and tumorigenesis. NUR77 has a canonical nuclear receptor architecture with an intrinsically disordered N-terminal A/B transactivation domain (AF-1) rich in phosphorylation sites, a central C-domain DNA-binding domain containing two zinc-finger motifs that recognize NBRE (AAAGGTCA) elements as a monomer or DR5 sites as RXR heterodimers, a flexible D-hinge region with nuclear localization signals, and a C-terminal E/F ligand-binding domain (aa 351–598) that lacks a classical hydrophobic pocket but supports AF-2 coactivator recruitment and homo/heterodimerization. Mechanistically, various kinases (ERK, JNK, PKC) phosphorylate the N-terminal domain to enhance transactivation and promote mitochondrial translocation, where NUR77 exposes a BH3-like motif to convert anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 into a pro-apoptotic conformer that releases cytochrome c and activates caspases. In the nucleus, NUR77 upregulates FasL, TRAIL, and TRAIL receptor expression to amplify extrinsic apoptosis, inhibits NF-κB p65 via direct interaction to suppress inflammation, and coactivates SREBP or PPARγ to balance lipogenesis and β-oxidation in metabolic tissues, while TCR-induced NUR77 enforces T-cell negative selection by sensitizing thymocytes to Bim-mediated apoptosis. NUR77 deficiency accelerates atherosclerosis through unchecked NF-κB-driven inflammation and foam cell formation, promotes autoimmunity by impairing T-cell apoptosis, and enhances chemical hepatocarcinogenesis. Overexpression or ligand activation suppresses tumor growth in prostate, lung, and ovarian cancers by restoring apoptosis.
