RNF212 ring finger protein 212

Gene ID: 285498, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ZHP3; SPGF62

Summary

This gene encodes a RING finger protein that may function as a ubiquitin ligase. The encoded protein may be involved in meiotic recombination. This gene is located within a linkage disequilibrium block and polymorphisms in this gene may influence recombination rates. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
