  ID: NR1H4_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Bile acid receptor; AltName: Full=Farnesoid X-activated receptor; AltName: Full=Farnesol receptor HRR-1; AltName: Full=Nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group H member 4; AltName: Full=Retinoid X receptor-interacting protein 14; Short=RXR-interacting protein 14;
FUNCTION: Ligand-activated transcription factor. Receptor for bile acids such as chenodeoxycholic acid, lithocholic acid and deoxycholic acid. Represses the transcription of the cholesterol 7-alpha-hydroxylase gene (CYP7A1) through the induction of NR0B2 or FGF19 expression, via two distinct mechanisms. Activates the intestinal bile acid-binding protein (IBABP). Activates the transcription of bile salt export pump ABCB11 by directly recruiting histone methyltransferase CARM1 to this locus.
SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of NR1H4 and RXR. After activation by agonist binding, interacts with a coactivator, NCOA1 or NCOA2 (By similarity). Interacts with CARM1 and SMARD1.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (Probable).
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain.

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.
