Comment typeDescription
DomainComposed of three domains: a modulating N-terminal domain, a DNA-binding domain and a C-terminal ligand-binding domain.
FunctionReceptor for retinoic acid. Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RAR/RXR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. The high affinity ligand for RXRs is 9-cis retinoic acid (By similarity).
InteractionP10276:RARA; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-712405, EBI-413374;
SimilarityBelongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR2 subfamily.
SimilarityContains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain.
Subcellular LocationNucleus {ECO
SubunitHomodimer. Heterodimer with a RAR molecule. Binds DNA preferentially as a RAR/RXR heterodimer.
