DNASE1L3 deoxyribonuclease 1L3

Gene ID: 1776, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: D3; LSD; DHP2; SLEB16; DNAS1L3

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the deoxyribonuclease I family. The encoded protein hydrolyzes DNA, is not inhibited by actin, and mediates the breakdown of DNA during apoptosis. Mutations in this gene are a cause of systemic lupus erythematosus-16. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
