Gene information for IRF6 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3664
Official gene symbolIRF6
Full nameinterferon regulatory factor 6
Aliases,LPS,OFC6,PIT,PPS,VWS,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor (IRF) family. Family members share a highly-conserved N-terminal helix-turn-helix DNA-binding domain and a less conserved C-terminal protein-binding domain. Mutations in this gene can cause van der Woude syndrome and popliteal pterygium syndrome. This protein is involved in palate formation. [provided by RefSeq]
