SF-1 (steroidogenic factor-1) (NR5A1) and DAX-1 (dosage-sensitive sex-reversal, adrenal hypoplasia congenital, X chromosome) (NR0B1) are orphan nuclear receptors that are expressed in the adrenal gland, gonads, ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH), and pituitary gonadotrope cells. The function of these genes has been clarified by examining the consequences of naturally occurring mutations in humans, as well as...
