Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 4306
Gene name Nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 2
Gene symbol NR3C2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
MCRMLRMRNR3C2VIT
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4q31.23
Summary This gene encodes the mineralocorticoid receptor, which mediates aldosterone actions on salt and water balance within restricted target cells. The protein functions as a ligand-dependent transcription factor that binds to mineralocorticoid response elemen

Protein name Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) (Nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 2)
Protein function 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 an
