NEUROG3 neurogenin 3

Gene ID: 50674, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ngn3; Atoh5; NGN-3; Math4B; bHLHa7

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor involved in neurogenesis. The encoded protein likely acts as a heterodimer with another bHLH protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital malabsorptive diarrhea 4 (DIAR4).[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
