the protein is homologous to the receptors for steroid hormones , thyroid hormones and vitamin d3 , and appears to be a retinoic acid-inducible trans-acting enhancer factor , suggesting that the molecular mechanisms of the effect of retinoids ( vitamin a ) on embryonic development , differentiation and tumour cell growth are similar to those described for other members of this nuclear receptor family .
