The protein functions as a ligand-dependent transcription factor that binds to mineralocorticoid response elements in order to transactivate target genes. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal dominant pseudohypoaldosteronism type I, a disorder characterized by urinary salt wasting. Defects in this gene are also associated with early onset hypertension with severe exacerbation in pregnancy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]. * **UniProt Summary**: Receptor for both mineralocorticoids (MC) such as aldosterone and glucocorticoids (GC) such as corticosterone or cortisol. Binds to mineralocorticoid response elements (MRE) and transactivates target genes. The effect of MC is to increase ion and water transport and thus raise extracellular fluid volume and blood pressure and lower potassium levels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3037703}. |zf-C4| |Hormone recep| |steroid binding| |steroid hormone receptor activity| |positive regulation of NIK/NF-kappaB signaling| |regulation of NIK/NF-kappaB signaling| |steroid hormone mediated signaling pathway| |hormone-mediated signaling pathway| |transcription initiation from RNA polymerase II promoter| |cellular response to steroid hormone stimulus| |receptor complex| |DNA-templated transcription, initiation| |response to steroid hormone| |sequence-specific DNA binding| |transcription by RNA polymerase II| |cellular response to lipid| |cellular response to organic cyclic compound| |cellular response to hormone stimulus| |transcription, DNA-templated| |nucleic acid-templated transcription| |RNA biosynthetic process| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity| |zinc ion binding| |response to lipid| |response to hormone| |response to organic cyclic compound| |endoplasmic reticulum membrane| |positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |nucleobase-containing compound biosynthetic process| |heterocycle biosynthetic process| |aromatic compound biosynthetic process| |cellular response to endogenous stimulus| |organic cyclic compound biosynthetic process| |response to endogenous stimulus| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |cellular nitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of signal transduction| |RNA metabolic process| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cell communication| |positive regulation of signaling| |regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |gene expression| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp473|Cincreasin 100μM R08 exp473]]|1.78| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
