Also Known as RLF; RLNL; ley-I-L

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 3640

About INSL3

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:17,816,512-17,821,519 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 69 orthologues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Restricted expression toward testis (RPKM 240.7).

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the insulin-like hormone superfamily. The encoded protein is mainly produced in gonadal tissues. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggest that this gene may be involved in the development of urogenital tract and female fertility. This protein may also act as a hormone to regulate growth and differentiation of gubernaculum, and thus mediating intra-abdominal testicular descent. Mutations in this gene may lead to cryptorchidism. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
