Entrez Gene ID

Antigen Description

Retinoid X receptors (RXRs) and retinoic acid receptors (RARs) are nuclear receptors that mediate the biological effects of retinoids by their involvement in retinoic acid-mediated gene activation. These receptors function as transcription factors by binding as homodimers or heterodimers to specific sequences in the promoters of target genes. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the steroid and thyroid hormone receptor superfamily of transcriptional regulators. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

Function

9-cis retinoic acid receptor activity; DNA binding; chromatin DNA binding; enzyme binding; ligand-activated sequence-specific DNA binding RNA polymerase II transcription factor activity; protein binding; protein heterodimerization activity; retinoic acid
