A gene on chromosome 5q31.3 that encodes a glucocorticoid receptor, which acts as either a transcription factor that binds to glucocorticoid response elements in the promoters of glucocorticoid responsive genes to activate their transcription, or as a regulator of other transcription factors.
Molecular pathology
NR3C1 mutation are associated with generalised glucocorticoid resistance.
