Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionsex-1 encodes a DNA-binding protein that is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily of transcriptional regulators; during embryonic development, SEX-1 functions as an X chromosome signal element that transmits the primary sex-determination signal by negatively regulating transcription of xol-1, a gene whose expression levels correlate with hermaphrodite or male development (low xol-1 levels result in hermaphrodite development, high xol-1, in that of males); in vivo, SEX-1 can associate with extrachromosomal arrays containing the xol-1 promoter, indicating that SEX-1's affect on xol-1 transcription is likely to be direct; SEX-1 localizes to nuclei from oogenesis through mid-embryogenesis, with highest levels of expression visible during early gastrulation (28-100-cell-stage); the SEX-1 expression pattern appears to be similar in hermaphrodites and males.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003262

Automated_descriptionEnables RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in primary sex determination and regulation of gene expression. Located in nucleus. Expressed in gonad; intestine; oocyte; and ventral uterine precursor. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; artery disease (multiple); liver disease (multiple); and lung carcinoma (multiple). Is an ortholog of human NR1D1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group D member 1) and NR1D2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group D member 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
