Diagnostic Grade (Green)

  • Congenital adrenal hypoplasia

    X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females
  • Differences in sex development

    X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females

Protein function (UniProt)

Nuclear receptor subfamily 0 group B member 1

Nuclear receptor that lacks a DNA-binding domain and acts as a corepressor that inhibits the transcriptional activity of other nuclear receptors through heterodimeric interactions (PubMed:12482977, PubMed:32433991). Component of a cascade required for the development of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-gonadal axis (PubMed:7990953, PubMed:8675564). May also have a role in the development of the embryo and in the maintenance of embryonic stem cell pluripotency (By similarity)
