Summary
Enables DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including hormone-mediated signaling pathway; nervous system development; and reproductive structure development. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; heart mesentery; limb segment; and mammary gland primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); hypospadias; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); and ovarian dysgenesis 8. Orthologous to human ESR2 (estrogen receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.

RNA

  1. NR_104386.1 RNA Sequence

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (3) lacks two consecutive internal exons, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
