RARB - retinoic acid receptor beta Gene
Also Known as HAP; RRB2; NR1B2; MCOPS12; RARbeta; RARbeta1
Species: Homo sapiens
About RARB
This gene has 23 transcripts (splice variants), 451 orthologues, 18 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in placenta (RPKM 7.0), urinary bladder (RPKM 5.7) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes retinoic acid receptor beta, a member of the thyroid-steroid hormone receptor superfamily of nuclear transcriptional regulators. This receptor localizes to the cytoplasm and to subnuclear compartments. It binds retinoic acid, the biologically active form of vitamin A which mediates cellular signalling in embryonic morphogenesis, cell growth and differentiation. It is thought that this protein limits growth of many cell types by regulating gene expression. The gene was first identified in a hepatocellular carcinoma where it flanks a hepatitis B virus integration site. Alternate promoter usage and differential splicing result in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
