DNA segments have been discovered, and characterized by sequence, which are response elements operative to confer responsiveness to ligands for several members of the steroid/thyroid superfamily of receptors, for the transcriptional activation and/or repression of promoters in cells. By using transcriptional control regions comprising response elements of the present invention in combination with a functional promoter, it is now possible to provide recombinant DNA vectors containing a gene, the transcription (and, thereby, also expression) of which is under the control of a promoter, the transcriptional activity of which is responsive to ligands for members of the steroid/thyroid superfamily of receptors.
