Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a transcriptional activator involved in sex determination. The encoded protein binds DNA as a monomer. Defects in this gene are a cause of XY sex reversal with or without adrenal failure as well as adrenocortical insufficiency without ovarian defect. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Annotation information
Note: SF1 (Gene ID: 7536) and NR5A1 (Gene ID: 2516) share the SF1 symbol/alias in common. SF1 is a widely used alternative name for nuclear receptor subfamily 5 group A member 1 (NR5A1), which can be confused with the official symbol for SF1 (splicing factor 1). [01 Jun 2018]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
