Gene information for ESRRA (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2101
Official gene symbolESRRA
Full nameestrogen-related receptor alpha
Aliases,ERR1,ERRa,ERRalpha,ESRL1,NR3B1,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear receptor that is closely related to the estrogen receptor. This protein acts as a site-specific transcription regulator and has been also shown to interact with estrogen and the transcripton factor TFIIB by direct protein-protein contact. The binding and regulatory activities of this protein have been demonstrated in the regulation of a variety of genes including lactoferrin, osteopontin, medium-chain acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase (MCAD) and thyroid hormone receptor genes. A processed pseudogene of ESRRA is located on chromosome 13q12.1. [provided by RefSeq]
