Gene ID: 8284, updated on 3-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: HY; HYA; SMCY; JARID1D

Summary

This gene encodes a protein containing zinc finger domains. A short peptide derived from this protein is a minor histocompatibility antigen which can lead to graft rejection of male donor cells in a female recipient. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
