Background
This gene encodes an orphan nuclear receptor which is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor family. Its expression pattern suggests that it may be involved in neurogenesis and germ cell development. The protein can homodimerize and bind DNA, but in vivo targets have not been identified. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013],
Function
function:Orphan nuclear receptor. Binds to a response element containing the sequence 5'-TCAAGGTCA-3'. May be involved in the regulation of gene expression in germ cell development during gametogenesis.,similarity:Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR6 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain.,subunit:Homodimer. Interacts with UIMC1.,tissue specificity:Shows highest expression in the germ cells of the adult testis.,
