AUTS2 - activator of transcription and developmental regulator AUTS2 Gene

Also Known as MRD26; FBRSL2

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 26053

About AUTS2

Cytogenetic location: 7q11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:69,598,475-70,793,506 (from NCBI)

This gene has 34 transcripts (splice variants), 221 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in salivary gland (RPKM 2.5), skin (RPKM 2.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene has been implicated in neurodevelopment and as a candidate gene for numerous neurological disorders, including autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disability, and developmental delay. Mutations in this gene have also been associated with non-neurological disorders, such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia, aging of the skin, early-onset androgenetic alopecia, and certain cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
