VDR is a member of super family of steroid hormone receptors. It is known to play role in cellular growth and differentiation, calcium and phosphorus metabolism and bone remodeling . Human breast carcinomas, leukemias, and prostatic carcinoma cells express VDR, which can modify their growth and differentiation. In avians, VDR appears as a doublet of 58kDa and 60kDa.
