Summary of RXRG
This gene encodes proteins that are nuclear receptors and are involved in mediating the antiproliferative effects of retinoic acid. It increases DNA binding and transcriptional function on their respective response elements (R).
The Function of RXRG
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 RXRs is 9-cis retinoic acid.
