ATOH7 - atonal bHLH transcription factor 7 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as Math5; NCRNA; RNANC; PHPVAR; bHLHa13

Gene ID: 220202 | Gene type: protein coding

About ATOH7

Cytogenetic location: 10q21.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:68,230,595-68,232,113 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 180 orthologues, 15 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes.

Summary

This intronless gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix family of transcription factors, with similarity to Drosophila atonal gene that controls photoreceptor development. Studies in mice suggest that this gene plays a central role in retinal ganglion cell and optic nerve formation. Mutations in this gene are associated with nonsyndromic congenital retinal nonattachment. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
