DESCRIPTION

Also known as RXRG_HUMAN, RXRG, NR2B3. Receptor for retinoic acid. Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RAR/RXR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. The high affinity ligand for RXRs is 9-cis retinoic acid (By similarity). Homodimer (By similarity). Heterodimer with a RAR molecule (PubMed:28167758). Binds DNA preferentially as a RAR/RXR heterodimer (PubMed:28167758). Interacts with RARA (PubMed:28167758).
