About TCF15

Cytogenetic location: 20p13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:604,257-610,309 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 241 orthologues and 13 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 5.9), heart (RPKM 2.3) and 3 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is found in the nucleus and may be involved in the early transcriptional regulation of patterning of the mesoderm. The encoded basic helix-loop-helix protein requires dimerization with another basic helix-loop-helix protein for efficient DNA binding. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
