Gene information for JAG1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID182
Official gene symbolJAG1
Full namejagged 1 (Alagille syndrome)
Aliases,AGS,AHD,AWS,CD339,HJ1,JAGL1,MGC104644,
Gene summaryThe jagged 1 protein encoded by JAG1 is the human homolog of the Drosophilia jagged protein. Human jagged 1 is the ligand for the receptor notch 1, the latter a human homolog of the Drosophilia jagged receptor notch. Mutations that alter the jagged 1 protein cause Alagille syndrome. Jagged 1 signalling through notch 1 has also been shown to play a role in hematopoiesis. [provided by RefSeq]
