  Domain Name: NR_LBD_Dax1
The ligand binding domain of DAX1 protein, a nuclear receptor lacking DNA binding domain. The ligand binding domain of the DAX1 protein: DAX1 (dosage-sensitive sex reversal adrenal hypoplasia congenita critical region on chromosome X gene 1) is a nuclear receptor with a typical ligand binding domain, but lacks the DNA binding domain. DAX1 plays an important role in the normal development of several hormone-producing tissues. Duplications of the region of the X chromosome containing DAX1 cause dosage sensitive sex reversal. DAX1 acts as a global repressor of many nuclear receptors, including SF-1, LRH-1, ERR, ER, AR and PR. DAX1 can form homodimer and heterodimerizes with its alternatively spliced isoform DAX1A and other nuclear receptors such as SHP, ERalpha and SF-1.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.

Tips:
 If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position.

 The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs.

 Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below.
