| Description | Retinoic acid receptor alpha;RAR-alpha;Alternative Name- Nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group B member 1 |
| Organism | Xenopus laevis |
| Txonomy | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Amphibia; Batrachia; Anura; Mesobatrachia; Pipoidea; Pipidae;Xenopodinae; Xenopus; Xenopus. |
| Subcellular Location | Nucleus |
| Developmental Stage | It is synthesized during oogenesis and persists in the cleaving embryo at approximately constant levels until it is degraded just before gastrulation. |
| 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. |
