Summary: Enables several functions, including nuclear steroid receptor activity; sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and steroid binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to estrogen stimulus; cellular response to gonadotropin stimulus; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in axon terminus; dendritic spine; and perikaryon. Biomarker of endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in endometriosis; hyperprolactinemia; and obesity. Orthologous to human PGR (progesterone receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 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.
