ID:NR0B1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Nuclear receptor subfamily 0 group B member 1; AltName: Full=DSS-AHC critical region on the X chromosome protein 1; AltName: Full=Nuclear receptor DAX-1; FUNCTION: Orphan nuclear receptor. Component of a cascade required for the development of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-gonadal axis. Acts as a coregulatory protein that inhibits the transcriptional activity of other nuclear receptors through heterodimeric interactions. May also have a role in the development of the embryo and in the maintenance of embryonic stem cell pluripotency (By similarity). SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with NR5A1, NR5A2, NR0B2 and with COPS2. INTERACTION: P35398:RORA; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-946109, EBI-748689; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus. Homodimers exits in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. DOMAIN: Homodimerization involved an interaction between amino and carboxy termini involving LXXLL motifs and steroid binding domain (AF-2 motif). Heterodimerizes with NR5A1 and NROB2 through its N- terminal LXXLL motifs. DISEASE: Defects in NR0B1 are the cause of X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenital (XL-AHC) [MIM:300200]; also known as X- linked Addison disease (AHX). XL-AHC is a developmental disorder of the adrenal gland that results in profound hormonal deficiencies and is lethal if untreated. It is characterized by the absence of the permanent zone of the adrenal cortex and by a structural disorganization of the glands. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HHG) is frequently associated with this disorder. HHG is a condition resulting from or characterized by abnormally decreased gonadal function, with retardation of growth and sexual development. DISEASE: Defects in NR0B1 are the cause of 46,XY sex reversal type 2 (SRXY2) [MIM:300018]. It is a condition characterized by male- to-female sex reversal in the presence of a normal 46,XY karyotype. Note=XY individuals with a duplication of part of the short arm of the X chromosome and an intact SRY gene develop as females. The single X chromosome in these individuals does not undergo X-chromosome inactivation; therefore, these individuals presumably carry 2 active copies of genes, including the NR0B1 gene, in the duplicated region. Individuals with deletion of this region develop as males. Genes within the dosage-sensitive sex reversal region are, therefore, not essential for testis development, but, when present in a double dose, interfere with testis formation. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR0 subfamily. WEB RESOURCE: Name=GeneReviews; URL="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/GeneTests/lab/gene/NR0B1";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
