Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 5.4.0)
Enables chromatin DNA binding activity and transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Involved in cellular response to retinoic acid. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cardiac muscle tissue development; maternal placenta development; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human RXRB (retinoid X receptor beta).
