About Thra

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is one of several nuclear hormone receptors that bind thyroid Hormones such as triiodothyronine and thyroxine with high affinity. The encoded protein is a transcription factor that can activate or repress transcription. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
