FAM3A FAM3 metabolism regulating signaling molecule A

Gene ID: 60343, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: DLD; 2.19; XAP-7; DXS560S

Summary

This gene encodes a cytokine-like protein. The expression of this gene may be regulated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, and the encoded protein may be involved in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
