Nucleus (By similarity).

[edit] Developmental Stage

Maternal protein which is distributed within an animal-to-vegetal gradient in the embryo. Present from the egg stage onward and throughout the entire development.

[edit] Similarity

Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR2 subfamily. Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain.

[edit] Post translational Modification

[edit] Function

Transcription factor; binds and activates the promoter for the HNF1-alpha gene. Seems to have a lower DNA binding activity than HNF4-alpha and is a weaker transactivator than the alpha isoform.
