TR-alpha iso2 Isoform Alpha-1: Nuclear hormone receptor that can act as a repressor or activator of transcription. High affinity receptor for thyroid hormones, including triiodothyronine and thyroxine. Isoform Alpha-2: Does not bind thyroid hormone and functions as a weak dominant negative inhibitor of thyroid hormone action. Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
