About MYF5

Cytogenetic location: 12q21.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:80,716,912-80,719,671 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 200 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to contribute to E-box binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including muscle cell fate commitment; positive regulation of cell differentiation; and skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; regulation of cell-matrix adhesion; and somitogenesis. Located in nucleoplasm.
