AHR canonical pathway. After ligand binding, chaperon proteins dissociate from the AHR/chaperon complex in the cytoplasm, leading the translocation of ligand-bound AHR into the nucleus. AHR/ligand heterodimerizes with ARNT in the nucleus, where they bind to XRE cis-elements of target genes, leading to their transactivation.
