  • Nuclear Receptor NR2C2
  • Orphan Nuclear Receptor TR4
  • Receptor, TAK1
  • TAK1 Receptor
  • Testicular Receptor 4
  • TR4 Nuclear Hormone Receptor

Scope note

  • An orphan nuclear receptor that has specificity for hormone response elements found in the promoters of target genes. It binds DNA either as a homodimer or as heterodimer with the closely-related orphan nuclear receptor NUCLEAR RECEPTOR SUBFAMILY 2, GROUP C, MEMBER 1. The protein was originally identified as a TESTES-specific protein and is involved in the regulation of variety of cellular processes, including CELL DIFFERENTIATION; CELL PROLIFERATION; and APOPTOSIS.
