About POU4F3

Cytogenetic location: 5q32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:146,338,839-146,341,728 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 203 orthologues, 17 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the POU-domain family of transcription factors. POU-domain proteins have been observed to play important roles in control of cell identity in several systems. This protein is found in the retina and may play a role in determining or maintaining the identities of a small subset of visual system neurons. Defects in this gene are the cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 15. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
