About Rara

Primary_assembly 10: 83,893,384-83,928,142 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026983.1

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 331 orthologues, 19 paralogues and is associated with 12 phenotypes. Biased expression in Lung (RPKM 12.3), Kidney (RPKM 75.) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables histone deacetylase binding activity; nucleic acid binding activity; and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase regulator activity. Involved in several processes, including animal organ development; positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction; and response to vitamin A. Located in dendrite; nucleus; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Biomarker of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute promyelocytic leukemia. Orthologous to human RARA (retinoic acid receptor alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
