Gene information for AGO4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID192670
Official gene symbolAGO4
Full nameeukaryotic translation initiation factor 2C, 4
Aliases,EIF2C4,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the Argonaute family of proteins which play a role in RNA interference. The encoded protein is highly basic containing PAZ and PIWI domains, and it may play a role in short-interfering-RNA-mediated gene silencing. This gene is located on chromosome 1 in a cluster of closely related family members including argonaute 3, and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2C, 1. [provided by RefSeq]
