NFATC3 nuclear factor of activated T cells 3

Gene ID: 4775, updated on 11-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: NFAT4; NFATX; NF-AT4c; n339260

Summary

The product of this gene is a member of the nuclear factors of activated T cells DNA-binding transcription complex. This complex consists of at least two components: a preexisting cytosolic component that translocates to the nucleus upon T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation and an inducible nuclear component. Other members of this family participate to form this complex also. The product of this gene plays a role in the regulation of gene expression in T cells and immature thymocytes. Several transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
