背景介绍
This gene encodes the nuclear hormone receptor for vitamin
D3. This receptor also functions as a receptor for the secondary
bile acid lithocholic acid. The receptor belongs to the family of
trans-acting transcriptional regulatory factors and shows sequence
similarity to the steroid and thyroid hormone receptors. Downstream
targets of this nuclear hormone receptor are principally involved
in mineral metabolism though the receptor regulates a variety of
other metabolic pathways, such as those involved in the immune
response and cancer. Mutations in this gene are associated with
type II vitamin D-resistant rickets. A single nucleotide
polymorphism in the initiation codon results in an alternate
translation start site three codons downstream. Alternative
splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same
protein.

Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00407, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12145331, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28698609}. Cytoplasm Note=Localizes mainly to the nucleus (PubMed:28698609, PubMed:12145331). Localization to the nucleus is enhanced by vitamin D3.
功能
Nuclear receptor for calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D3 which mediates the action of this vitamin on cells (PubMed:
28698609, PubMed:
16913708, PubMed:
15728261, PubMed:
10678179). Enters the nucleus upon vitamin D3 binding where it forms heterodimers with the retinoid X receptor/RXR (PubMed:
28698609). The VDR-RXR heterodimers bind to specific response elements on DNA and activate the transcription of vitamin D3-responsive target genes (PubMed:
28698609). Plays a central role in calcium homeostasis (By similarity).
