Q68DK7

Receptor for retinoic acid. Retinoic acid receptors bindas heterodimers to their target response elements in response totheir ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate geneexpression in various biological processes. The RXR/RARheterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE)composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. In theabsence of ligand, the RXR-RAR heterodimers associate with amultiprotein complex containing transcription corepressors thatinduce histone acetylation, chromatin condensation andtranscriptional suppression. On ligand binding, the corepressorsdissociate from the receptors and associate with the coactivatorsleading to transcriptional activation. RARA plays an essentialrole in the regulation of retinoic acid-induced germ celldevelopment during spermatogenesis. Has a role in the survival ofearly spermatocytes at the beginning prophase of meiosis. InSertoli cells, may promote the survival and development of earlymeiotic prophase spermatocytes. In concert with RARG, required forskeletal growth, matrix homeostasis and growth plate function (Bysimilarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11416,ECO:0000269|PubMed:16417524, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19850744,ECO:0000269|PubMed:20215566}. Component of histone acetyltransferase complexresponsible for the majority of histone H4 acetylation at 'Lys-16'(H4K16ac) which is implicated in the formation of higher-orderchromatin structure. Greatly enhances MSL2 E3 ubiquitin ligaseactivity, promoting monoubiquitination of histone H2B at 'Lys-34'(H2BK34Ub). This modification in turn stimulates histone H3methylation at 'Lys-4' (H3K4me) and 'Lys-79' (H3K79me) and leadsto gene activation, including that of HOXA9 and MEIS1. In the MSLcomplex, acts as a scaffold to tether MSL3 and KAT8 together forenzymatic activity regulation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16227571,ECO:0000269|PubMed:21726816, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22547026}.
