Definition: A transcription coregulator activity that represses or decreases the transcription of specific gene sets via selective and non-covalent binding to a DNA-bound nuclear receptor. Corepressors often act by altering chromatin structure and modifications. For example, one class of transcription corepressors modifies chromatin structure through covalent modification of histones. A second class remodels the conformation of chromatin in an ATP-dependent fashion. A third class modulates interactions of DNA-binding transcription factor with other transcription coregulators.

did you mean to say " transcription corepressors " in the definition rather then "nuclear corepressor" in these 2 instances For example, one class of transcription corepressors modifies chromatin structure through covalent modification of histones. A second class remodels the conformation of chromatin in an ATP-dependent fashion. A third class modulates interactions of DNA-binding transcription factor with other transcription coregulators."
Also would "nuclear receptor corepressor" be a better term label?
I didn't know about these and I would immediately think this term just referred to a. nuclear version of a bog-standard corepressor.
Also would "nuclear receptor corepressor" be a better term label?
yes ok
Also changed nuclear receptor transcription coactivator activity -> nuclear receptor coactivator activity
Edited definition to "A transcription corepressor activity that represses or decreases the transcription of specific gene sets via selective and non-covalent binding to a DNA-bound nuclear receptor. Nuclear receptor corepressors often act by altering chromatin structure and modifications. For example, one class of transcription nuclear receptor corepressors modifies chromatin structure through covalent modification of histones. A second class remodels the conformation of chromatin in an ATP-dependent fashion. A third class modulates interactions of DNA-binding transcription factor with other transcription coregulators."
Thanks, Pascale
This term is missing. It is similar to transcription corepressor activity.
