Atf6 - activating transcription factor 6 Gene
Also Known as ESTM49; Atf6alpha; 9630036G24; 9130025P16Rik
Species: Mus musculus
About Atf6
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues, 9 paralogues and is associated with 7 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in heart adult (RPKM 1.2), genital fat pad adult (RPKM 8.5) and 28 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; protein heterodimerization activity; and ubiquitin protein Ligase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo mesenchyme; eye; liver; long bone; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in achromatopsia 7. Orthologous to human ATF6 (activating transcription factor 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
