(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID11277
Official gene symbolTREX1
Full namethree prime repair exonuclease 1
Aliases,AGS1,CRV,DKFZp434J0310,DRN3,HERNS,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes the major 3'->5' DNA exonuclease in human cells. The protein is a non-processive exonuclease that may serve a proofreading function for a human DNA polymerase. It is also a component of the SET complex, and acts to rapidly degrade 3' ends of nicked DNA during granzyme A-mediated cell death. Mutations in this gene result in Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome, chilblain lupus, and Cree encephalitis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
