Nuclear receptor subfamily 0 group B member 1 (NR0B1), also known as dosage-sensitive sex-reversal, adrenal hypoplasia congenital critical region on the X chromosome, protein 1 (DAX1), is an orphan nuclear receptor. The gene encoding this 470-amino acid protein consists of two exons. The protein possesses a carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) and an amino-terminal domain (NTD) which has three short repeats, each containing an LXXLL motif. NR0B1 is expressed in the anterior pituitary, hypothalamus, adrenal cortex and gonads. The gene is localized on human chromosome Xp21.

NR0B1 (NP_000466, 361 a.a. ~ 470 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
Nuclear receptor subfamily 0 group B member 1 (NR0B1) has adrenal and reproductive functions. It acts as a repressor of gene transcription. The protein inhibits the functioning of steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1), an orphan nuclear receptor. Mutations in the NR0B1 gene have been associated with X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
