NHR-64 LBD

Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-64.

The nhr-64 encodes a conserved nuclear receptor that is a member of the NR2 subfamily of nuclear receptors that contains Drosophila and human HNF4 (mutations in human HNF4A are associated with Type I MODY (maturity-onset diabetes of the young)). By homology, NHR-64 is predicted to function as a transcription factor that may activate or repress transcription in response to a hormonal signal. However, as loss of nhr-64 activity via RNAi does not result in any obvious abnormalities, the precise role of NHR-64 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known. The nhr-64 is broadly expressed and detected in anterior and posterior neurons, the ventral nerve cord, the pharynx, gut, and hypodermis.
