NHR-6

WormBase ID: WBGene00003605

WormBase description: Is an ortholog of human NR4A1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1) and NR4A2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 2). Exhibits DNA-binding transcription factor activity and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Is involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; regulation of ovulation; and spermathecum morphogenesis. Localizes to nucleus. Is expressed in chemosensory neurons and spermatheca. Human ortholog(s) of this gene are implicated in extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma and late onset Parkinson's disease.
