RARA基因编码的功能和结构描述
这个基因代表一个核维甲酸受体。编码蛋白视黄酸受体α以配体依赖的方式调节转录。该基因参与调控时钟基因的发育、分化、凋亡、颗粒变性和转录。这个位点和其他几个位点之间的易位与急性早幼粒细胞白血病有关。另外，已经发现了这个位点的剪接转录变体。
This gene represents a nuclear retinoic acid receptor. The encoded protein, retinoic acid receptor alpha, regulates transcription in a ligand-dependent manner. This gene has been implicated in regulation of development, differentiation, apoptosis, granulopoeisis, and transcription of clock genes. Translocations between this locus and several other loci have been associated with acute promyelocytic leukemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this locus.
