V‐erbA is thought to be an antagonist of thyroid hormone receptor (T3R) function. Here we show that unliganded T3R, but not v‐erbA, suppresses retinoic acid (RA)‐dependent induction of the RAR‐beta 2 promoter by competing for the common dimerization partner, the retinoid X receptor (RXR). Firstly, T3R suppression can be alleviated by co‐transfection of RXR. Secondly, T3R, but not v‐erbA, competes with RAR for RXR and causes the dissociation of a preformed RAR/RXR‐RARE ternary complex in vitro. A single point mutation located in the dimerization interface of v‐erbA (Pro349 to Ser) abolishes the transdominant phenotype when introduced at the respective position in T3R. The hypertransforming v‐erbA variant r12, in which this mutation is reversed (Ser349 to Pro) suppresses RA‐induced differentiation in chicken erythroid progenitors, while v‐erbA does not. Our data thus suggest that unliganded T3R and v‐erbA act as dominant suppressors through mechanistically distinct pathways.
