Anti-NR4A2 (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit，200UL，N6413-200UL，Sigma

General description

NR4A2 (N-terminal) encodes a member of the steroid-thyroid hormone-retinoid receptor superfamily. The encoded protein may act as a transcription factor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with disorders related to dopaminergic dysfunction, includ
Nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 2 (NR4A2) is part of transcriptional regulator subfamily, under the family of nuclear hormone receptors. It is a transcription factor expressed in the brain and T-cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 2 (NR4A2) acts as an activator of tyrosine hydroxylase. It is crucial for the process of DNA repair by melanocortin-1 receptor.
NR4A2 binds the NGFI-B (nerve growth factor-induced clone B) response element (NBRE) sequence (AAAGGTCA) as monomer. NR4A2 is induced by multiple extracellular signals, including fatty acids, stress, growth factors and neurotransmitters in a cell type specific manner. Hepatic expression of NR4A2 is induced by cAMP in response to glucagon and fasting. NR4A2 is essential for the differentiation of nigral dopaminergic neurons. NR4A2 mutations have been associated with disorders related to dopaminergic dysfunction, including Parkinson′s disease, schizophrenia.
