Involved in several processes, including animal organ regeneration; positive regulation of cardiac muscle hypertrophy; and regulation of type B pancreatic cell proliferation. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma. Orthologous to human NR4A3 (nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
