Ncoa1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; nuclear estrogen receptor binding activity; and nuclear retinoid X receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including brain development; estrous cycle; and lactation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including chromatin; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Biomarker of hypothyroidism. Orthologous to human NCOA1 (nuclear receptor coactivator 1).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Ncoa1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
