SALL4 spalt like transcription factor 4

Gene ID: 57167, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: DRRS; IVIC; HSAL4; ZNF797

Summary

This gene encodes a zinc finger transcription factor thought to play a role in the development of abducens motor neurons. Defects in this gene are a cause of Duane-radial ray syndrome (DRRS). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
