Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionnhr-48 encodes a nuclear receptor that, along with daf-12 and nhr-8, comprise the C. elegans members of a conserved nuclear receptor subfamily that includes Drosophila HR96 and the vertebrate vitamin D, PXR, and CAR proteins; an nhr-48::gfp reporter is expressed in the pharyngeal gland in larvae and adults and in the spermatheca beginning in L4; weak hypodermal expression is also seen in some transgenic lines.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004181

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and nuclear receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including anterior gonad arm; pharyngeal gland cell; and spermatheca. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autoimmune disease (multiple); autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B; carcinoma (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of human VDR (vitamin D receptor).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (14)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
