About Nr3c2

Primary_assembly 19: 30,715,648-31,059,885 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026992.1

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 213 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 11 phenotypes. Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 16.1), Heart (RPKM 15.8) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables several functions, including DNA binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and steroid hormone receptor activity. Involved in regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; postsynaptic density, intracellular component; and presynaptic active zone cytoplasmic component. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 and pseudohypoaldosteronism. Orthologous to human NR3C2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 2).
