General annotation (Comments)

Function

This is a receptor for retinoic acid. This metabolite has profound effects on vertebrate development. Retinoic acid is a morphogen and is a powerful teratogen. This receptor controls cell function by directly regulating gene expression.

Subcellular location

Isoform Beta-1: Nucleus.

Isoform Beta-2: Nucleus.

Isoform Beta-4: Cytoplasm.

Domain

Composed of three domains: a modulating N-terminal domain, a DNA-binding domain and a C-terminal steroid-binding domain.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily.

Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain.
