ATOH7 - atonal bHLH transcription factor 7 Gene
Also Known as Math5; NCRNA; RNANC; PHPVAR; bHLHa13
Species: Homo sapiens
About ATOH7
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 180 orthologues, 15 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes.
Summary
This intronless gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix family of transcription factors, with similarity to Drosophila atonal gene that controls photoreceptor development. Studies in mice suggest that this gene plays a central role in retinal ganglion cell and optic nerve formation. Mutations in this gene are associated with nonsyndromic congenital retinal nonattachment. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
