SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm
	intracellular,nucleus,nucleoplasm
text	nuclear translocation observed as an essential regulatory event for transcription of its target genes such as CYP3A4

basic FUNCTION	detoxification of cholestatic bile acids
	regulating the expression of genes involved in the biosynthesis transport and metabolism of bile acids
	playing a key role in the regulation of both drug metabolism and efflux by inducing the expression of CYP3A4 and MDR1 gene
	key regulator of genes encoding several major cytochrome P450 enzymes and transporters
	potential role in breast cancer resistance to drug treatments
	ligand-activated transcription factor regulating genes central to drug and hormone metabolism in the liver
	necessary for IL6-mediated repression of the CYP3A4 expression in human hepatocytes
	transcription factor that induces hepatic drug metabolism by activating cytochrome P450 genes (21127053)
	may have a function in prediction and treatment of esophageal disease
	important regulator of xenobiotic metabolism and intestinal integrity
	co-ordinately up-regulates drug metabolism, transport, and antioxidant genes to protect the vasculature from endogenous and exogenous insults, thus representing a novel gatekeeper for vascular defence

CELLULAR PROCESS

nucleotide, transcription

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

an FGF21-NR1I2 signaling pathway may be involved in decreased hepatic CYP3A4 metabolic activity in Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)

a component	heterodimerizing with RXR
	forms a tryptophan zipper-mediated homodimer, playing a role in the function of this nuclear xenobiotic receptor
	NR1I2 and RXRA form a heterotetramer unprecedented in the nuclear receptor family of ligand-regulated transcription factors

INTERACTION

DNA	binding to a response element in CYP3A4

RNA

small molecule

protein	immune-regulatory role in T lymphocytes and SOCS1 is an early signal in NR1I2-mediated T lymphocyte suppression
	GADD45B is a direct target for NR1I2, eliciting cell signals to regulate various cellular functions
	eliciting MAPK14 phosphorylation for cell migration
	NR1I2 promoter methylation is involved in the regulation of intestinal NR1I2 and CYP3A4 mRNA expression and might be associated with the inter-individual variability of the drug responses of colon cancer cells
	NR1I2 represses SULT1E1, possibly attenuating the inactivation of estrogen
	PROX1 could negatively regulate NR1I2 signals in some tumor cells, such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells, where both NR1I2 and PROX1 are expressed
	RBCK1 ubiquitinates NR1I2, and this may target NR1I2 for degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway
	both ELANE and PRTN3 cleave the human NR1I2 N terminus at sites distinct from the thrombin cleavage site
	regulates innate immunity via activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in vascular endothelial cells
	cross-talk between NR1I2 and AHR plays a role in the regulation of CYP3A4 gene expression
	NR1I2 plays a central role in cortisol-mediated induction of CYP3A4 activity during pregnancy
