MEN1 Gene Information

HGNC symbol
MEN1 
Aliases
 
Common name
menin 1 
Entrez Id
4221
Description
This gene encodes menin, a tumor suppressor associated with a syndrome known as multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. Menin is a scaffold protein that functions in histone modification and epigenetic gene regulation. It is thought to regulate several pathways and processes by altering chromatin structure through the modification of histones. [provided by RefSeq, May 2019].
