(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2309
Official gene symbolFOXO3
Full nameforkhead box O3
Aliases,AF6q21,DKFZp781A0677,FKHRL1,FKHRL1P2,FOXO2,FOXO3A,MGC12739,MGC31925,
Gene summaryThis gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors which are characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. This gene likely functions as a trigger for apoptosis through expression of genes necessary for cell death. Translocation of this gene with the MLL gene is associated with secondary acute leukemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been observed. [provided by RefSeq]
