Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - NR6A1 is a transcription factor that regulates gene expression through the binding to specific DNA sequences. - It is a key regulator of cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. - It is involved in the regulation of various developmental processes, including eye development and the formation of the male reproductive tract. **Pathways and functions:** - NR6A1 is a key regulator of eye development. It is expressed in lens epithelial cells, which are responsible for the development of the eye. NR6A1 binds to DNA sequences in the promoter region of the eye-specific transcription factor 1 (EGF-1) gene and promotes its expression. This leads to the development of the ciliary body, which is responsible for the function of the eye. - NR6A1 also plays a role in the development of the male reproductive tract. It is expressed in basal epithelial cells of the prostate and is required for the development of the prostate gland. NR6A1 binds to DNA sequences in the promoter region of the sox2 gene, which is responsible for the development of male reproductive tract cells. This leads to the development of the prostate gland and the seminal vesicles. **Clinical significance:** NR6A1 gene mutations have been linked to a number of human diseases, including cataracts, glaucoma, and prostate cancer. These mutations can disrupt the normal function of NR6A1, leading to the development of these diseases. **Conclusion:** NR6A1 is a key regulator of eye development and the formation of the male reproductive tract. Its mutations have been linked to a number of human diseases, highlighting its importance in human health.
