Comment Type Description
Developmental Stage Expressed both maternally and zygotically. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16448862, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17195188, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17997606, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7565671}.
Domain Composed of three domains: a modulating N-terminal domain, a DNA-binding domain and a C-terminal ligand-binding domain.
Function Receptor 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 this rxr is 9-cis retinoic acid (By similarity).
Similarity Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR2 subfamily.
Similarity Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain.
Subcellular Location Nucleus.
Subunit Homodimer. Heterodimer; with a rar molecule. Binds DNA preferentially as a rar/rxr heterodimer.
Tissue Specificity Uniform expression from the blastula to mid- gastrula stages. At 12 hours post-fertilization (hpf), expressed strongly in the tail and weakly elsewhere. At 24 hpf, weak expression in the forebrain, eyes and pharyngeal endoderm and continued expression in the tail mesoderm. At 48 hpf, anterior expression limited to ventral cells underlying the head, medial expression in the pectoral fin bud mesoderm and continued tail expression. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16448862, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17195188}.
