ZMAT3 Gene Information

HGNC symbol
ZMAT3 
Aliases
FLJ12296; MGC10613; PAG608; WIG-1; WIG1 
Common name
zinc finger matrin-type 3 
Entrez Id
64393
Description
This gene encodes a protein containing three zinc finger domains and a nuclear localization signal. The mRNA and the protein of this gene are upregulated by wildtype p53 and overexpression of this gene inhibits tumor cell growth, suggesting that this gene may have a role in the p53-dependent growth regulatory pathway. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding two isoforms differing in only one amino acid. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
