QuickView for NRL;jsessionid=AEFEA19F5F207BCFC5ACCFA719C710D5 (gene)


Gene Symbol:
NRL Homo sapiens Homo sapiens
Full name:
neural retina leucine zipper
Synonyms:
D14S46E, NRL-MAF, RP27, neural retina-specific leucine zipper protein, neural retinal-specific leucine zipper
Genomic Location:
Chr 14: 23619156-23623672
Description:
This gene encodes a basic motif-leucine zipper transcription factor of the Maf subfamily. The encoded protein is conserved among vertebrates and is a critical intrinsic regulator of photoceptor development and function. Mutations in this gene have been associated with retinitis pigmentosa and retinal degenerative diseases.
