Background: RAR alpha/NR1B1

Retinoic Acid Receptor alpha (RAR alpha; NR1B1) is closely related to the Thyroid hormone Receptor (TR). RARs bind to two retinoids, all-trans retinoic acid and 9-cis retinoic acid. RAR alpha is expressed in adult skin, and lung. RAR alpha is redundantly involved in vertebrates in the pleiotropic control of embryonic patterning and organogenesis, cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis, as well as homeostatic control.

Long Name
