    FAMILY
  • orphan receptors family
  • nuclear hormone receptor family
  • NR3 subfamily
    • CATEGORY receptor nuclear
    basic FUNCTION
  • estrogen-related receptor A
  • regulator of medium chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase
  • involved in the expression of SV40 major late promoter
  • modulator of ESR response of lactoferrin promoter
  • repressor of the peroxisome proliferator-associated receptor gamma coactivator 1
  • required for the basal level of expression of many known and novel ESRRA target genes
  • playing a role in breast cancer growth
  • activates the expression of androgen response elements (ARE)-containing promoters, such as that of the prostate cancer marker PSA, in an ARE-dependent manner
  • important mediator of mitochondrial biogenesis and function, and a key regulator of oxidative metabolism
