| Subcellular Location | Nucleus |
| Developmental Stage | Not expressed maternally. First detected at 8 hours post-fertilization (hpf) during gastrulation. Expression then increases; reaching a peak at 24 hpf and decreasing from 30- 48 hpf. At 9 hpf; expressed throughout the dorsal epiblast except at the dorsal midline; and ventrally in prospective tail an |
| Similarity | Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily. Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain. |
| Post Translational Modification | NA |
| Function | This is a receptor for retinoic acid. This metabolite has profound effects on vertebrate development. Retinoic acid is a morphogen and is a powerful teratogen. This receptor controls cell function by directly regulating gene expression. |
