Vitamin D includes a group of steroid compounds that are converted to the steroid calcitriol in human kidneys

Calcitriol is a circulating steroid hormone that binds to Vitamin D receptors and the hormone binding to the Vitamin D steroid hormone receptor results in heterodimerization with a retinoic acid receptor and eventual regulation of calcium and phosphate in the blood stream.

Which of the following DNA sequences is a likely HRE for Vitamin D receptor binding?

A. NAGAACANNNTCAGCAN
B. NAGGTCNNNATTTTAN
C. NNTCCAGTTGACCTNN
D. NNAGGTCANNNAGGACANN
