Gene information for ELAVL3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1995
Official gene symbolELAVL3
Full nameELAV (embryonic lethal, abnormal vision, Drosophila)-like 3 (Hu antigen C)
Aliases,DKFZp547J036,HUC,HUCL,MGC20653,PLE21,
Gene summaryA member of the ELAVL protein family, ELAV-like 3 is a neural-specific RNA-binding protein which contains three RNP-type RNA recognition motifs. The observation that ELAVL3 is one of several Hu antigens (neuronal-specific RNA-binding proteins) recognized by the anti-Hu serum antibody present in sera from patients with paraneoplastic encephalomyelitis and sensory neuronopathy (PEM/PSN) suggests it has a role in neurogenesis. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
