Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity; double-stranded DNA binding activity; and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including calcineurin-mediated signaling; positive regulation of male gonad development; and response to gonadotropin-releasing hormone. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Used to study gonadal dysgenesis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 46,XX sex reversal 4; 46,XY sex reversal 3; Zellweger syndrome; primary ovarian insufficiency 7; and spermatogenic failure 8. Orthologous to human NR5A1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 5 group A member 1). [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.
