Protein summary

This is preferred isoform of AHR protein.
AHR: aryl hydrocarbon receptor
Description:

The protein encoded by this gene is a ligand-activated helix-loop-helix transcription factor involved in the regulation of biological responses to planar aromatic hydrocarbons. This receptor has been shown to regulate xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes such as cytochrome P450. Before ligand binding, the encoded protein is sequestered in the cytoplasm; upon ligand binding, this protein moves to the nucleus and stimulates transcription of target genes.

The genomic coordinates used for the transcript record were based on transcript alignments.
