DNA/RNA

Description	spans about 46 kb; 9 exons
Transcription	four transcript variants (6382 bp, 5635 bp, 4983bp and 2588 bp)

Protein

Description	three isoforms (637 aa, 626 aa and 443 aa); N-terminal activation domain; central bipartite zinc finger DNA-binding domain; C-terminal ligand binding domain.
Expression	most tissues, highest expression levels in the central nervous system.
Localisation	nuclear
Function	orphan nuclear receptor; implicated in the control of cell proliferation as an immediate-early protein and in differentiation and apoptosis; binds as a monomer to the DNA-response element NBRE; activate transcription constitutively when bound to NBRE; the homeotic protein Six3 is a coactivator of TEC.
Homology	belongs to the steroid/thyroid receptor gene super family; highly homologous to the nuclear receptors NGFI-B and NURR1.
