Interacting selectively and non-covalently with 20-hydroxyecdysone (ecdysone). Ecdysone is an ecdysteroid produced by the prothoracic glands of immature insects and the ovaries of adult females, which stimulates growth and molting. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with abscisic acid, plant hormones that regulate aspects of plant growth. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with epidermal growth factor. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any hormone, naturally occurring substances secreted by specialized cells that affect the metabolism or behavior of other cells possessing functional receptors for the hormone. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with auxin, plant hormones that regulate aspects of plant growth. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with adiponectin, a protein hormone produced by adipose tissue that modulates a number of metabolic processes, including glucose regulation and fatty acid catabolism. Combining with adrenocorticotropin to initiate a change in cell activity. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with thyroxine (T4) or triiodothyronine (T3), tyrosine-based hormones produced by the thyroid gland. Combining with ecdysis-triggering hormone to initiate a change in cell activity. Elemental activities, such as catalysis or binding, describing the actions of a gene product at the molecular level. A given gene product may exhibit one or more molecular functions. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with ethylene (C2-H4, ethene), a simple hydrocarbon gas that can function in plants as a growth regulator. The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. Combining with melanocyte stimulating hormone to initiate a change in cell activity. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with juvenile hormone, the three sesquiterpenoid derivatives that function to maintain the larval state of insects at molting and that may be required for other processes, e.g. oogenesis. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with gibberellins, plant hormones that regulate aspects of plant growth. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any androgen, male sex hormones. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any peptide with hormonal activity in animals.
