Gene Summary

Enables several functions, including identical protein binding activity; nuclear glucocorticoid receptor activity; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including glial cell differentiation; nuclear receptor-mediated glucocorticoid signaling pathway; and positive regulation of miRNA transcription. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including maternal behavior; regulation of primary metabolic process; and response to cortisol. Located in cytosol; membrane; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and leg muscle. Used to study primary hyperaldosteronism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including alcohol dependence; anorexia nervosa; cocaine abuse; heroin dependence; and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human NR3C1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
