HELLS helicase, lymphoid specific

Gene ID: 3070, updated on 11-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: LSH; ICF4; PASG; SALNR; SMARCA6; Nbla10143

Summary

This gene encodes a lymphoid-specific helicase. Other helicases function in processes involving DNA strand separation, including replication, repair, recombination, and transcription. This protein is thought to be involved with cellular proliferation and may play a role in leukemogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
