Also Known as POF6; BHLHC8; FIGALPHA

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 344018

About FIGLA

Cytogenetic location: 2p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:70,777,310-70,790,643 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 189 orthologues, 13 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that functions in postnatal oocyte-specific gene expression. The protein is a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor that regulates multiple oocyte-specific genes, including genes involved in folliculogenesis and those that encode the zona pellucida. Mutations in this gene cause premature ovarian failure type 6. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
