Summary
Enables nuclear thyroid hormone receptor binding activity and protein heterodimerization activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; response to retinoic acid; and retinoic acid receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human RXRA (retinoid X receptor alpha).
