Rattus norvegicus

Also known as ERBA1; Thra1; c-erbA-1

Gene ID: 81812 | Gene type: protein coding

About Thra

Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; nucleic acid binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including animal organ development; digestive tract development; and regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Located in cytosol; mitochondrion; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital nongoitrous hypothyroidism 6 and renal cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human THRA (Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha).
