About Nr1h4

Primary_assembly 7: 23,846,122-23,942,047 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026980.1

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 388 orthologues, 19 paralogues and is associated with 37 phenotypes. Biased expression in Liver (RPKM 265.5) and Kidney (RPKM 198.2).

Summary

Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; bile acid receptor activity; and chenodeoxycholic acid binding activity. Contributes to double-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including lipid homeostasis; liver development; and negative regulation of biosynthetic process. Located in nucleus. Part of receptor complex. Used to study extrahepatic cholestasis; intrahepatic cholestasis; and portal hypertension. Biomarker of bile duct disease (multiple); liver disease (multiple); non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (multiple); obesity; and premature menopause. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in extrahepatic cholestasis; hepatocellular carcinoma; and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis 5. Orthologous to human NR1H4 (nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group H member 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
